Melodic Pentatonics Over a Gloomy Blues (B minor Jam) Dominant Pentatonic

In this lesson, I solo over a moody, gloomy blues backing track in B minor and walk you through how I use four different pentatonic scales to create contrast, emotion, and flow in my improvisation. 🎸💀

Here's the backing track if you want to give it a try:    • 🎸🎸 Gloomy B Minor Blues Jam | Guitar Backi...  

It’s not just about running boxes—it’s about choosing the right scale at the right moment to shape the feel of the solo. One of my favorite flavors in this one? The dominant pentatonic—a spicy twist that adds some edge and tension to the blues.

✅ What you’ll learn:
How I approach a dark, slow blues groove in B minor
The 4 pentatonic scales I use—and why
How to switch between them without sounding random
Real-time examples with breakdowns and fretboard insights


🎯 Great for players who want to:
Go beyond just minor pentatonic
Add major, dominant, and modal flavors to their solos
Understand soloing as storytelling—not just scale shapes


Whether you're jamming along or studying the ideas, this video shows how to make pentatonic vocabulary sound expressive, emotional, and fresh.
