AGEDC octaves : 6-string guitar (Drop D - DADGBE)
A pentatonic minor scale : General
In this BLOGoZON we take a look at the A pentatonic minor scale and join them all together
for 6-string guitar (Drop D - DADGBE) to form one long AGEDC octaves chain.
Below the 6-string guitar (Drop D - DADGBE) sequence is shown for A natural in the diagram that follows.

The diagram that follows shows all five of the AGEDC octaves shapes for use with the
box shapes for a 6-string guitar (Drop D - DADGBE).
The diagrams that follow show all of the A pentatonic minor scale notes plotted over the
6-string guitar's (Drop D - DADGBE) fretboard in the AGEDC octaves and GuitarPro7 styles.

As always a more long term solution to fretboard navigation is to see scales as INTERVAL shapes
rather than note names - as these are universal to all scales, arpeggios and chords rather than
specific to one particular root note - with this in mind the intervals for the
A pentatonic minor scale are detailed below in the AGEDC octaves manner.
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all five box shapes for the
A pentatonic minor scale in the AGEDC octaves style.
