Pentatonic BSP and 2 Pentatonic specific "sticks"

Specific pentatonic stick with modes, and their brief description.
Note that Pentatonic is "parent" scale of 5th mode (e.g. minor pentatonic).

Back side of all sticks, regardless of scale. This info is general and relates to any scale or mode. It explains intervals and extensions, and is color coded to show that scale degrees and their extensions have a difference of 7 (e.g. a 6th degree and a 13th are the same note, but in a higher octave).

Keyboard facsimile. This allows the keyboard student the ability to "see" scales, modes, and arpeggios; and intervals and extensions for chord construction. This piece remains aligned with note sheet end to end.

"Floating nut" with snap fastener. This can also snap over the 6 pieces for portability.
