Open A Minor Scale Descending

This lesson looks at the difference between ascending scales and descending scales on guitar. When descending a scale the pitch of the notes gets lower each time which gives a really satisfying sinking feeling in music. Try playing this over a backing track to get an idea of what a descending scale can do to the feel of a song. When practicing scales on guitar you should try to balance between playing them in both ascending and descending patterns. Pair this lesson with the ascending open A minor scale guitar lesson found at https://7minutemusic.com/scale/level-1/open-a-minor-scale/. Once you have the pattern down try practicing this scale to a metronome to get even timing of your notes.
