Hi!

I was just wondering if anyone has the proper fingerings for pentatonic scales and blues scales in all the different keys?
I've searched a lot for it but haven't found anything

Thankyou very much in advance!!

I think most of the pentatonic blues scales use 1-2-3-4 1-2 fingerings, at least I do.

For pentatonic I use 1-2-1-2-3 (so for C it's C-1, D-2, F-1, G-2, A-3, C-1 etc.). This seems to work for most (at least it does for me). As for blues, I've never used any set fingering, it's just what seems to flow best at that particular time.
