This is a great site for learning chords and scales. but one thing i have noticed is that it only shows one basic form of pentatonic scales, particularly majors. i have read some posts on here asking about how to move up the fretboard with scales. basically, i expect more experienced players to know the alternate forms, but for beginners, major pentatonics can also be played like so(the blue x's would the the root note of the scale):

example in key of "f"

fret   e  a  d  g  b  e

1      x
2
3      x  x  x
4
5      x  x  x  x
6                    x
7             x  x
8                    x  x
9         
10                  x  x




This form of major pentatonics is transferable to any major key, just change to root note to the note of the key you wish to play in.
