Try playing a minor pentatonic in the root position, up two frets and again up seven frets. This for an A minor pentatonic you would start on the bass A, 5th fret, bass B, 7th fret and on the bass E 12th fret. Of course you do not have to start on those note just play minor pentatonic fingerings in those positions. These other positions will add chord extensions that add a touch of jazz to your songs.
