Pentatonic Scale
=== Tuning ===
=== Harmonics Scale ===
Using natural harmonics, we can play a D Major or B Minor scale. Note that although the harmonics are marked as the 3rd, 4th, and 5th frets, the exact position is actually 3.2, 3.9, and 5.
 
E---------------------------------------------<5>-----<4>-------<3>-
B-------------------------------------------------<3>-----<2.7>-----
G-----------------------------<5>-----<4>-<3>-----------------------
D-----------------<5>-----<4>-----<3>-------------------------------
A-----<5>-----<4>-----<3>-------------------------------------------
E-<4>-----<3>-------------------------------------------------------

== Artificial Tapped Harmonics ==
Fret the notes indicated and tap with the right hand finger over the note in parentheses.

These exercises can be played for any chord's left-hand fingering using the same tapping patterns above, as well as descending, so long as they are low enough for the octave +12 frets to be tapped.
 
=== Pentatonic Scale ===
E--------------------------------------------------------------5(17)-8(20)--
B--------------------------------------------------5(17)-8(20)--------------
G--------------------------------------5(17)-7(19)--------------------------
D--------------------------5(17)-7(19)--------------------------------------
A--------------5(17)-7(19)--------------------------------------------------
E--5(17)-8(20)--------------------------------------------------------------
for an advanced take on this exercise, tap with the same fingers on the
right hand as the left hand is fretting.
