So now, that we've found our root in our fifth in our first position and we played it with
our second finger here. If you put your second finger on the low string, right below the
fifth, and put your pinkie, you can find your root fifth active on the next couple of frets.
So we have. It might seem like a little bit of a stretch because you're going from your
second fifth finger to your pinkie. Again, when you're playing normally, you can play
first finger to pinkie, but because we're doing this scale, it requires us to be in
this position. And it's good to stretch your fingers out anyway. But now, we've added these
notes.
So, we have our first notes and our second notes. And now that we have these, one, two,
three, four "frets" down, even though there are no frets there, but we know how to find
these notes. We're going to go through and look at our major scale and analyze it so
we can go through and play our first major scale, E-major.
