The arpeggio sequences in this lesson will surely help you to creatively incorporate arpeggios into your guitar personality. The first is composed of triplets that make up a G Maj Arpeggio. The second exercise is the next logical step beyond the first exercise, using ascending and descending quadruplets. The last exercise shows how to combine arpeggios within a given key such that you make full use of the fretboard. This is similar to the philosophy I have regarding scales and modes - the bottom line is that you want to be comfortable playing at any point on the fretboard. This one will take a while to nail down up to speed but persevere and you will get there!

In the Diatonic Scale Sequences and Patterns lesson, I showed you how to play a scale as a sequence of triplets. We can do the same exact thing with an arpeggio. In this case it is a C Major triad. So we start at C, play the next 2 notes in the triad (E, and G). Then we go back to the E, and play the next 2 up from that (G and C), and so on.

Here is the same C Major triad arpeggio shape that we used in the Triad Arpeggios lesson.

This exercise involves a lot of finger motion. Just as you finish a sweep, you are going back to start another one. So as always, strive for accuracy here.
