        I layed out how the major and minor pentatonic-patterns relate to the different CAGED chord shapes on 1 page. Feel freee to download if it is interesting for you 👍

            Thank you, this is very helpful Roland. I guess it’s irony that I just did this all by hand 3 days ago. Your graphics are much neater.
            So now the challenge is to learn all the patterns, not only for the full CAGED cords, but also for the triads within the cords. That is part of what I’m working on right now.
            I’m also doing the same thing for chord tones and arpeggios. It’s an ambitious undertaking, but the possibilities are intriguing.

                    Thankyou Roland for this, I will download it and put into the workbook. Good timing, as I was working on how the ‘e chord shape’ C relates with the major and minor pentatonic scale from the theory of lesson ep157. And then realized I would have to do the others as well. You have saved me the extra workload and time.
