If you like rock, blues or country music, the minor pentatonic scale is a must scale to learn! The music scale chart above displays the A flat minor pentatonic scale, and the 3 extended note versions of the scale that can be used to give the minor pentatonic scale a little more dimension.
You'll notice the scale has 5 notes, which are derived out of the A flat natural minor scale and are the 1st - 3rd - 4th - 5th & 7th notes of the natural minor scale.
The extended flattened 5th note can be added into the scale,which is the D note in the A flat minor pentatonic scale, and which gives this scale the blues sound you may be looking for.
Try playing within this scale over a easy I - IV - V chord progression or I - III - IV chord progression to really get the feeling of how this scale sounds.
