goes well with pentatonic scale

I know the 5 poistions for pentatonic scales. I was wondering what a good scale is to learn to play with the pentatonic. Something so whem I pretend to solo... i hit more than two notes per string. If that makes sense

I think I get what you are asking. The answer is to use the pentatonic patterns as a visual reference but include diatonic notes in the boxes. I cover that in these tutorials on the basics of improvising.

I also show how to include other notes inside the pentatonic boxes in these tutorials.

Also the last two lessons of this tutorial show a few tricks for expanding on the pentatonic boxes.

Hope that helps! Please ask more if necessary & best of success!

I think you should try minor and MJ scale...
They go well with the pentatonic..

It all boils down to the chords you are playing to.
Very easy learn the blues scale, which is flattening the 5th.
Thanks like Chris said , diatonic scale.
Thanks once you have learned the diatonic scale you will be able to find the relative minor scale, which happens to be the same notes different intervals...good luck take it slow.
