In this quick lesson sponsored by Elixir® Strings, Massimo Varini demonstrates how to play floating pentatonic scales using open strings which helps the notes overlap.
Massimo, a guitarist, producer, Grammy-winner, and renown educator, plays Elixir Acoustic Phosphor Bronze Strings with NANOWEB® Coating, Light/Medium gauge (12-56).
“Elixir Strings have unbeatable durability and an awesome sound. They are really comfortable and feel great to play. Once you try Elixir, you can’t go back to other strings.” – Massimo Varini
