New Lesson! Turn Major Triad Arpeggios on Guitar into Minor, Diminished and Augmented Chords!

[Mark Wein]

This is really "part 2" of last week's triad lesson and "part 3" of the CAGED Complete lesson series. Next week we'll be pulling pentatonic scales from our major scales, I think.

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

I incorporated this into my scale study. My guitar fretboard paper is double sided, with has 5 necks on each side.

On side 1, I get the 5 CAGED patterns, with note names for the scale I'm playing. On the side 2, I get 4 necks of string sets and then on the bottom one I write out all the chord tones for the tonic. I'll do this in both major and the relative natural minor. I should probably do the intervals in addition to the notes, but this seems easier to me.

Goal is to write them out, and play them, 4 times per week.

Sounds good. Any way to internalize the information means less "mental processing" time is spent while you're trying to make music.

Also, we'll have the next installment today, although it's about modes instead of chords.
