Hi Rob, To practice soloing over this, which scales would one use? Thanks!

Thanks! This was awesome! I love seeing that you didn't play the G7 as a full barr chord. This is something I need to practice more.

Hey Rob, never realized how 3 chords could sound so kool. I have been practicing different arrangements with only 3 chords, so very happy!! Thx!!!

My pleasure Alfreda, yes, I've always preferred that voicing for the V chord, not only because it sounds great, but it allows me to stay in position. Glad you're enjoying this lesson! -Rob

Hi Rob - isn’t this progression based on the harmonic minor (not natural minor)?

I always find new ways to play with your guitar tutorial. What penta to use here for the solo. Thanks Rob

Not exactly, the dominant 7 V chord is sourced from the harmonic minor. But if you look at the I chord, it's flat 7 note is not in the harmonic minor, it's found in the natural minor.
