Re: pentatonic diagram that goes past 12
DIY
Just write it out on a diagram, and then transfer what's on the first few frets to the 12+ area.
Or, look to the position markers while you're playing...look to see where they are for the lower octave, and then go to the same positions in the upper.
After you're done, you can post it here, and the next google search will bring up your chart.

Yeh but there is multiple pentatonic patterns as well (where a different note in the scale is the root note) but that aside just start again after the 12th fret the 12th is the same as the open.
super rad stuff

You can get one on my site. But it just has the individual patterns (5 of them) laid out separately.

Kind of, but the way each key stretches out on the neck is different...some keys have open strings you wouldn't use in others...still, the basic shapes for most keys are linear...do the same lick up one fret higher on the neck and you're in the next higher key.

yup. i know there's a ton of cool learning tools there, yet my playing doesn't reflect it!

^ This. Everything repeats 12 frets up, so duplicate the patterns from the open positions (the nut becomes the 12th fret, 1st fret becomes the 13th fret, etc.)
It is much better to work this out for yourself than simply following the dots on a grid. It takes longer but you will understand what you are doing and why and it will encourage you to think about what you're playing up past the 12th fret, which has to be a good thing, surely?
