Hello there everyone! Are these technically arpeggios? I don't constantly just do the 135 so I didn't know what you would classify these as

JOIN THE DISCORD VIEW THREADWow thank you!! Practice playing on the clean channel and go for a percussive sound more than anything! That's what I do to try to practice getting cleanIf it looks, walks, and talks like an arpeggio, then its gotta be..
Amazing playing jak! I would say those are, because isnt an arpeggio any chord shape not played as a chord but individually picked? Thats what ive always been told. Thats clean as hell i need to get on your level!
Are there future lessons that help distinguish the difference between a lick and an arpeggio? How do we know the difference of what actually makes an arpeggio? I know it's the 135 of a chord but when you start talking about Bm7 and D6 I'm curious how those are arpeggiosWell, some are and some are not - technically speaking. The first one is a D but you are adding a suspended 4th ALONG WITH the 3rd. I suppose a case could be made for a D add 11. But I wouldn't make that case.lol. Same 4 notes are used in the intro of Sweet Child Of Mine (D A F# G) - but in a different order of course. So I would call it more of a lick than an arpeggio. The next two are definitely arpeggios. Bm7 D6. The last one is C# B & A which is a partial Aadd9 (no 5th). So that really is more part of an a D Major scale.
The FAR more important thing here is that you are playing the notes you want to hear. Who cares if they are or aren't arpeggios. (I know your curious - and that's a good thing). But this is actually a great lesson about how to use arpeggios and then mix them with partial scales, etc.
Playing all arpeggios would be uninteresting and predictable. Dare I say it: practicing. But mixing them in with other things is MUSIC.
Thank you ma’am! I will get right on it next time i play! My 5 string sweeps need a lot of work so its nose to the grindstone time!Wow thank you!! Practice playing on the clean channel and go for a percussive sound more than anything! That's what I do to try to practice getting clean
Extended arpeggios.Hello there everyone! Are these technically arpeggios? I don't constantly just do the 135 so I didn't know what you would classify these as
Thank you Calvin!!Extended arpeggios.
An arpeggio is made up of the notes of ANY chord. The notes are played one at a time, ascending or descending.Are there future lessons that help distinguish the difference between a lick and an arpeggio? How do we know the difference of what actually makes an arpeggio? I know it's the 135 of a chord but when you start talking about Bm7 and D6 I'm curious how those are arpeggios
Thank you for the compliment and clarification!
OMFG I GET IT! So you have to know the notes in the CHORD in order to be able to determine IF it's an arpeggio and WHAT one it is!! The name of the arpeggio is based off the chord nameAn arpeggio is made up of the notes of ANY chord. The notes are played one at a time, ascending or descending.
So a C Major arpeggio would be C E G - G E C.
A C Major7 would be C E G B - B G E C
A C7b5b9 would be C E Gb Bb Db - Db Bb Gb E C
If you mix the notes up - or add other notes, it is no longer an arpeggio.
It helps to know what notes are in a chord - but it's not Imperative. If you can play the chord, you can play the arpeggio. Just play the chord one note at a time.
Make sense?
The entire extended arpeggios series shows you each chord and the arpeggios that goes with it. Including the minor 6 we learn In blues. I also believe you can find some of them in the theory posts on the forums. He really goes into detail of the positions.OMFG I GET IT! So you have to know the notes in the CHORD in order to be able to determine IF it's an arpeggio and WHAT one it is!! The name of the arpeggio is based off the chord name
Just wondering if you do inversion,like start on the third or the fifth, it is still an Arpeggio right?An arpeggio is made up of the notes of ANY chord. The notes are played one at a time, ascending or descending.

Yes. Still an arpeggio.Just wondering if you do inversion,like start on the third or the fifth, it is still an Arpeggio right?
