How to play the E minor pentatonic scale
We’re going to start out with the sixth string, which is the closest string to you. Then, we’re going to pluck that open, with a downward pick motion. Then we’re going to go to the third fret, of the sixth string, third fret, right here, of the sixth string, with our third finger, and we’re going to pluck that with a downward stroke. Then, we’re going to go to the fifth string, which is the next string down, played that open. Then, we’re going to go to the second fret, with our second finger, fret number two, second finger, and we’re going to pick that with a downward motion of the pick. On to the fourth string, open. Now, we’re going to go to the second fret of that fourth string, with the second finger. On to the third string, open, to the second fret, with the second finger. Open second string, to the third fret, with your third finger, and then, to the open first string, the one furthest away from you. And then to the third fret, with your third finger. Now, we’re going to bring it back, pluck the third fret again, with your third finger, then an open first string. Then, we’re going to go to the third fret, of the second string, with our third finger, then open second string. Second fret of the third string, second finger, then open third string. Second fret of the fourth string, second finger, open fourth string. Second fret of the fifth string, second finger, open fifth string.
