The city for this lesson was not specified. Aimee guided Josh through major triads, emphasizing fingering, smooth transitions, and interval recognition. Following this, they delved into minor pentatonic scales, practicing various patterns and positions across the fretboard. The lesson wrapped up with an introduction to seventh chords and a discussion about chord progressions.
