One way to do arpeggios in open C. The key thing to learn with this is finger rolling. There are many more ways to do arpeggios in this tuning, but these shapes work well with the chord shapes used in another video Ive uploaded. Any questions, feel free to ask. Im glad to help if I can.

    Hey, in answer to questions:

    To build arpeggios like these, its just a separation of chord notes.

    A minor = root, third, fifth. (1,3,5)

    Count a=1, b=2, c=3 , d=4 etc…

    so ACE is A chord, BDF is Bchord, CEG is C… I don’t know where you’re at with theory so I wont get too involved with flat 3rd or what makes a major/minor/dim chord.

    Hope this helps? To sum it up: Root note, third note, fifth note. There are no rules to stay within these, just a good starting point.

    All the best!

    you are a life saver.
    thanks bro.
    how would you build an arpeggio, regardless of tuning?
    like once you know the root note for each chord, where do you go from there?
