I just started digging into LOA5 and wow, I am excited. just hearing My blues and blues creeping over me has me motivated to work harder to learn them. 

I just started to do overblows, which are difficult to move from note to note quickly. I am assuming that it would be a good idea to implement them when memorizing the pentatonic and blues scales in the 3 main positions. 

I wanted to check my accuracy on what overblow notes should be added for the different positions. 

2nd position G blues scale 6+ overblow, creating a flat 3rd. 

1st position C blues scale 4 overblow, 5 overblow, and 6 overblow

3rd position D major pentatonic 5 overblow

Am i missing anything? 

Do you have a sheet with the same setup as the movement exersizes, essential scales for the minor pentatonic? 

Thanks for your help.
