Playing Minor 2-5 Bass Scales in G Major

So now we've got through and we got our minor chords are two minor and five seven and our six minor. There is a two five which leads into the six minor so if I start on one and I want to get down on six, I can go one seven four six so it is a two five one. If we make this our six scale we have one two three four five so we have two four five that is your minor two five going to your six. So we have one minor two five six and then we can do our major two five back over to our one. (playing) Major two five one minor two five minor six minor two one minor two five two six and you see that notated as if we were in G. This is a F sharp half diminished going to a B altered and you see a circle of a half stripe or a line through it for half diminished, B altered will say alt next to the B and then it will go to E minor. (playing guitar) That is your minor two five.
