‘Good morning, afternoon, or evening!  The first video we looks at a tasty Dorian inspired Steve Lukather Style lick.

Then we will be  looking at pentatonic runs and making up patterns. Given the repetitive nature of these patterns, they lend themselves well to being played fast, as your fingers can learn the pattern fairly quickly; a lot of the fast runs you hear Joe Bonamassa play are repetitive pentatonic patterns . As always, start off slow and build up speed gradually. The examples here are to be used as a springboard for you to come up with your own runs. https://vimeo.com/224822361

Enjoy!

All of these examples are in the first position of the D minor pentatonic scale.
