The minor pentatonic scale is without a doubt one of the most popular scales within a guitarist’s toolkit.
From the early blues and rock and roll of the ’40s and ’50s, through to the psychedelic sounds of the swinging ’60s; the classic rock of the ’70s and ’80s, to ’90s alternative rock and Britpop; continuing throughout most guitar genres of the 2000s onwards, the minor pentatonic scale has always had a place in popular music.
