20 Essential Pentatonic Licks: Intermediate

Learn to focus on target notes and chord tones instead of just ‘playing the scale’ with 20 exciting licks from the incredible Luca Mantovanelli.

You’ll incorporate new techniques and concentrate on the finer details between the notes and how you can play them. The pentatonic scale has been closely related to the electric guitar for generations and yet in this release, Luca shows you how you can still craft original and mesmerising licks.

In the pack, you’ll hone in on a myriad of techniques starting with palm muting, whammy bar dips and hybrid picking. As you progress from licks 1 - 10, Luca raises the bar by incorporating slides, pull-offs, double-stops and more. There’s also strong emphasis on rhythmic timing and phrasing as some consider those to be one of the key aspects in good solo playing.

Included in this pack are 20 licks - played both fast and slow - a PDF guide to each lick, short, long and slow lick backings and full tab/notation.

Use the scale you know in a way you don’t. Exciting, engaging and full of technical lessons, Luca’s 20 Licks pack is designed to expand your pentatonic possibilities.
