Major Triad Arpeggios

Major Triad Arpeggios

The fretboard can be divided into six overlapping 4-finger major triad arpeggio patterns, Two Root to Root patterns where the first and last note is the root note, one where you start with your index/middle and another that starts with your pinky or middle finger, and then also four more patterns based on the same idea playing 3rd to 3rd and 5th to 5th. These patterns will allow you to outline major chords and also do sweep picking over the entire fretboard. Here is also a chart with minor triad arpeggios.
