Thomas, I am curious to know how you arrived at your corrected positions of the A Minor Pentatonic Scale.

Any Minor Pentatonic scale has only 5 notes and thus the A minor pentatonic has (A C D E G). Laying these 5 notes out along the 6th string starting from the 5th Fret (A Note) determines the 5 Positions and any Repeating Positions and Patterns formed thereof. I checked to see if you were mistaking the positions of the A major Pentatonic’s positions, but even that does not give substance to your reasoning.

So, how did you calculate Fig 1 as 5th Pos AND Fig 2 as 9th Position?

The way I see it and consider it is the open position scale starting on the 3rd fret, or 1st position would be the scale shape starting on the 3rd fret. I have been trying to find the answer to this question regarding what designates the position of a scale shape in any key. All I seem to find is the position is a loose designation and not set in stone, but if someone was to ask me to play the pentatonic scale of Em in the first position, is there a correct place to play it and if so what is the reason behind why this is the spot.

On some other lessons, it seems like the red indicates other things, but perhaps I need to go back and look again; maybe it is always just indicating that.
