4 string arpeggios

[AcidShred]

The scale charts are everywhere but is there anyone on the net who could be bother to write down the common arpeggios for 4 STRING and ALL over the fretboard. Not just tiny box shape.

[UncleNuzzy]

It is a tiny box shape though, just move it around, the root (1st note you play) note is the arpeggio you are playing. the shape stays the same no matter where you are on the neck...Look for the finger pattern they are describing with the "tiny box"

Actually, I would like to know some as well, I'll keep an eye on this thread

First I would identify where all the notes of the Major Diatonic Scale (key of C perhaps), between the nut and fret 12. From there you can easierly find where the broken chords occur.

C Major 
Scale     C         Dm        Em        F         G         Am       Bo

in my thinking and extending this a bit further, the graph is depicting the triad, where no matter what key/chord, the I,IV,V are using a major third, the rest are using flatted third, except the vii which is diminished? ... and then you are able to move the pattern wherever on the neck you have sufficient strings to complete the pattern ... ?? ... please correct me if I am missing something ??

[bburk]

I think you've pretty much got it. But I would suggest just concentrating on intervals, and how intervals are combined to make chords rather than memorizing the patterns above. Soounds like you already have a fair understanding of the basic concepts anyway. Once you are proficient at that, you can construct any chord in any key in any position easily (no need for patern diagrams).

[Correlli]

^^I don't think it a good idea to try and tell people what they should and shouldn't be doing. for example "no need for patern diagrams" Standard music notation is a type of diagram that shows various patterns of melody, rhythm, and harmony, is it not?

Everyone develop's there own way of doing things i.e. experience. people "see" music in many different ways, whether it's patterns, numbers, letters, graphs, notation, tab etc. My example is just one of many ways of illustrating a harmony (chord).

Dis some else's diagram

I think the intent was to tell him to learn chord construction so he doesn't have to rely on someone else's diagram. Not "dissin" the diagram as you say .

The best idea would be for you to do it for yourself. That way you've got a better chance of learning them.

You are right, diagrams, charts, etc are a complete waste of time.

Is there another side of the argument you are having that I am not privy to?
