Learn CAGED Arpeggios in 7 Days

If you’re checking out this Master Class, chances are that you’re familiar with the CAGED system, but are feeling stale in your soloing, haven't quite unlocked your fretboard, or are just ready to take the next step.
‍

We can't emphasize how much arpeggios are a game changer in the soloing world. They'll enable you to take bigger tonal steps as you travel across your fretboard, get away from blanket one-scale-fits-all soloing, and give you access to the greater harmonic interest via a "play-the-changes" soloing approach.

To kick off the Master Class, Sam will introduce you to the major 7 arpeggio and show you how to use it in a musical context.

Believe it or not, you’ve already done all the hard work for Day 2. We’re going to get extra miles out of the major 7 shape by simply shifting up a few frets and playing over our relative minor chord.

This unique two-for-one approach gives us access to the colorful extension of the 9th alongside reliable chord tones like the 5th, flat 7th, and flat 3rd.

We’re challenging you to take everything up into the second octave here on Day 2 for maximum melodic expression.

Learning arpeggios in a stationary way provides a valuable comparison that will help out with memorizing and eventually applying them to chord changes.

You'll learn how to outline major 7, dominant 7, minor 7, minor 7 b5, and fully diminished chords as they relate to the E and A CAGED positions.
