Minor Pentatonic Scales
The minor pentatonic scales essentially "augment" the minor chord
forms in the same way that the major pentatonic scales extend the major
chord forms. The notes of the minor chord forms can be found within the
scales, and can be used to "reference" the scales on the fretboard. The
scales below are shown next to the chord forms that are "embedded"
within them.
The "root" notes of the scale are shaded in the diagrams.
