Grab your jam track CD's and start playing from the first track. Is it really bluesy?... or is really light?... or is it somewhere in between? Think of the Major Pentatonic Scale as being 100% light and the Blues Scale on the other side as 100% bluesy. If you have a song in between, then the right answer is to us a little bit of both. Below is a mixture of the two scales... experiment with it.

1+ 1' 1 2+ 2" 2 3" 3' 3 4+ 4' 4 5+ 5 6+ 6' 6 7 7+ 8 8+ 9 9+ 10
