Arpeggios!

Here are the four most important arpeggio types.


Major 7 : 1-3-5-7
Dom. 7 : 1-3-5-b7
Min. 7 : 1-b3-5-b7
Min.7 b5 : 1-b3-b5-b7

They're divided in columns : 6-1 means sixth string, first finger (first finger plays the root note). 4-2 means fourth string, second finger, etc.

Some of these positins are less "guitar-friendly" than others but check them all before making a choice!
It is rather important to situate the third, fifth and seventh in these arpeggios. A good way to practice them is to play over "Bluesette" or "All The Things you Are" changes, trying to stay in one position using these arpeggios. Good luck!
