Plans for any videos for practicing scales?

Hi David,
Do you intend to be putting any videos up for playing scales? Are they beneficial
to practice? Just curious if it is something to be practicing along with all the other great stuff?
Thanks 528hemi

Here's the blues scale for 2nd Position:
1+ 1' 1 2" 2 3' 4+ 4' 4 5 6+ 6' 6 7+ 8 9 9+
Practice this with a jam track playing each note as a whole note (4 counts)... then, each note as a half note (2 counts)... then quarter note (1 count)... then swing eighths (1/2 beat)... then triplets.
The Major Pentatonic Scale:
1 2+ 2 3" 3 4 5+ 6+ 6 7 8 8+ 9+ 10

Yes, I do. The Major Pentatonic Scale and the Blues Scale are both great scales studies. I'll get to it ;-) In the mean time, my book Exploring 2nd Position covers this.
