Tired of running the same old boxy pentatonic shapes? In this episode of Ray Plays Guitar, Ray Kainz introduces Quantum Pentatonics—a new approach that centers each position around the root note, letting you build the rest of the scale around that root, rather than getting locked into static patterns. This method helps you: *See the fretboard in a more musical and relational way *Train your ear to understand how each note relates to the root *Unlock repeatable, ergonomic micro-shapes that make soloing smoother and more expressive *Break free from traditional 2-notes-per-string limits By zooming in on each root-centric shape, you’ll develop a more intimate connection with the pentatonic scale and bring new life to your phrasing, tone, and improvisation. 🎸 Whether you're a beginner looking to understand the neck or an advanced player looking for new inspiration—this is for you.
