In this Guitar Arpeggios 101 mini-course, we’ll cover:

  • Common intervals used in arpeggios;
  • Major & minor arpeggios;
  • 4 note extensions – major 7, minor 7 & dominant 7 arpeggios;
  • How to move the patterns to any position & octave;
  • Learn an example solo, using only arpeggio notes from each chord change;
  • Plus, beginning strategies for developing the use of arpeggios in your own playing.
