This is D pentatonic major scale. It has the same shape as the 1st diagram of G pentatonic minor scale but it starts on 7th fret and the root is on different place.
Add two notes (F# & G), and it turns into D major scale. Not D "pentatonic major" scale, but D "major" scale.

Wow, this is just what I have been looking for. I have been spending so much time trying to improve my metal techniques that I have neglected my improvisational skills.
It's strange, I remember I used to be ok at adlibbing, but somewhere along the line I really lost it.
I can see this site is going to have lots of stuff to keep me busy.

Don't you mean add a G and A C# not an F# ?
