This lesson is for pentatonic players that don't want to spend a lot of time memorizing all the Greek modes.
You can extract a pentatonic scale out of six of the seven modes. With this information in mind, we can take a major scale and extract three pentatonic scales starting from three different points on the fretboard.
In this case, we will use G Dorian to exemplify this improvisation trick, but we can try it in all modes!

As always, this info is gold. I tell folks that after almost 50 years of being a guitar player I finally became a guitarist because of Mr. Wallimann. Thank you!

The modes have been a mystery to me. Thanks to you and other KZfaqrs, it is coming clearer. I like in this tutorial that even with the three pentatonic scales you also get the missing notes from the G Dorian with the other two pentatonics.

Thank you so much! Like others, I've been playing lead for many years, but you have opened so much more of the fretboard. Moving through these minor modes even gets into to a jazz sound which has been impossible to me to crack on a consistent bases, until now!

That just blew my mind, i cant believe i have never put this together nor have i heard anyone else explain it. so if you have 3 scales, all from that position of the pentatonic, you can run that all the way up the neck and down...holy shit...i finally learned the modes...well, its a huge start. Thank you Mr. Wallimann. You are the best!!! seriously, you are.

My theory is pretty solid & I admit David explores some rather obscure & non-intuitive yet quite interesting & useful aspects of pattern to scale relationships & such that I had never even really thought about. Some of my favorites are: 1)The Idea that ALL modes are just "some pentatonic scale + only 2 notes"... Not so obscure but powerful when you learn which 2 notes to add. 2)This vid, where; there exists "3 valid pentatonic positions" for every mode... a not so obvious fact you may have accidentally encountered at some point. 3) An "exit note / diminished outro" exists for every mode.... Maybe not all that useful but an ah ha moment. He covers some Cool stuff imo.

Hello. Meilleurs vœux pour cette nouvelle année.Je te souhaite beaucoup de réussite et de joie pour ta chaine, mais aussi pour "ta vie à côté" 😉 Très belle entrée en matière pour les modes. Je vais tâcher de suivre précisément tes indications, n'ayant jamais vraiment réussi à utiliser ces modes "in context"...! Il serait d'ailleurs ('pt'etre') utile de nous jouer une toute petite suite d'accords "typique" pour chaque mode, histoire de concrétiser ces notes dans une couleur, une ambiance...? Merci encore David...!!! Chris

If just playing notes from a mode corresponded to actually playing in that mode, then whenever anyone is playing in any one of the church modes, they'd be playing in all of them at once. I.e., the notes in C Ionian are the same as the notes in D Dorian, so if "playing in mode X" = "using the notes from mode X", playing in C Ionian would be the same as playing in D Dorian. But modal playing is not just about what set of notes you choose from; it also concerns how those notes are used. This lesson could have used a bit more explicit emphasis on the latter. It's evident in your playing here, but not so much in the words and diagrams. -Tom
@jackh577 4 жыл бұрын
I'm confused, if you only play the Minor pentatonic shape, aren't you leaving out the second and 6th notes?? And doesn't the 2 to the flat 3, and the 6 to the flat 7, give the mode much of its unique sound??

cool solo but you slipped in some passing notes there though bro,, and isn't it more logical to start from aeolian with mixolydian in the 2nd and dorian in the 7nd? does not sound frygian at all but major mixo when you start from dorian on the 1st

So, David, are you actually also playing "A" Phrygian and "D" Aeolian (over the G Dorian) when you move up the neck to the 5th and 10th frets respectively? I'm probably overanalyzing this :) Thanks for your always-informative vids.
@honestiron 5 жыл бұрын
No, it's like this: G Dorian is the second mode of F Ionian (major scale) so it contains the notes G A Bb C D E F. The way he is showing here is to just play the minor pentatonic scales for G, A and D . If you analyze the notes that are contained in each of these, you will see they make up exactly the notes in the G Dorian scale: G min pent: G Bb C D F A min pent: A C D E G D min pent: D F G A C Combine them and you'll get G A Bb C D E F. There are common notes between the three, of course. The idea is to use what you know already (pentatonic scales) and be able to easily visualize and play over a Dorian progression without learning a new scale pattern. You can visualize the G Dorian pattern in the root position by overlaying the 5th position A minor pentatonic scale on top of the 1st position G minor pentatonic scale.

@erwinerwin1245 5 жыл бұрын
Just so I am not confused on what I understand. You just played 3 Minor Penatonic Scales the G, A and D position to get the modes sound. Like you did not add one extra note that was not part of those Penatonic scales
@deafconmediaZA 5 жыл бұрын
Every mode has 7 positions. They are all the same scale when played next to each other in this order.. c Ionian, d dorian, e phrygian, f locrian,g mixolydian, a aolian.b locrian. Its a c Ionian when played this way CDEFGAB C major scale (ionion) They only change once you replace the "root" so if you play A ionion then play an A mixolydian, you have now switched modes. Hope you understand, I struggle explaining this stuff. Out of all modes you can build a pentatonic scale because a major pentatonic is 5 notes out of the 7 note ionion mode and thats translates through all the modes being played next to each other because a guitar neck is just a repeat of a series of notes. Lots of repeat shapes at different parts of the neck. Hope you get it dude.

I mean, when u see Jimmy Page soloing like a machine I believe its more due to these approaches and concepts of neck understanting and not due to theory bullcrap.
