Here’s a breakdown of seventh arpeggios and their related chords based on the major scale for guitar.
An arpeggio is essentially the notes of a chord played individually.
Seventh arpeggios add a fourth note (the seventh) to each triad, giving a more complex and richer sound.
In this guitar lesson, we'll be focusing on the arpeggios of the seventh chords derived from the G major scale.
You'll find the free PDF (or name a fair price) here in the GUMROAD Store.
