A minor pentatonic

Five notes: A C D E G.

The minor pentatonic is a five-note scale. Every glowing bead on this neck is one of those five notes, up to the 17th fret.

Box 1 · frets 5 to 8

Start with one shape.

Box 1 sits between the 5th and 8th frets, two notes on every string. The A notes, the roots, glow red.

Boxes 2 to 5

Then the next shape, and the next.

Each box starts where the last one ends: at the 8th, 10th, 12th and 15th frets.

The whole neck

Link them and the neck lights up.
