A minor-diminished arpeggio box shapes
This issue demonstrates the MINOR-DIMINISHED ARPEGGIO which is the underlying arpeggio for the
MINOR BLUES SCALE (built from the minor pentatonic scale plus the flat five - ♭5 - or BLUES NOTE).
The AGEDC octaves sequence is shown for A natural in the diagram that follows:-
The diagram that follows show all of the A minor-diminished arpeggio notes plotted over the 6-string guitar's fretboard in the AGEDC octaves style:-
As always a more long term solution to fretboard navigation is to see scales/arpeggios as INTERVAL shapes rather than note names - as these are universal to all scales, arpeggios and chords rather than specific to one particular root note - with this in mind the intervals for the A minor-diminished arpeggio are detailed below for the 6-string guitar in the AGEDC octaves manner:-
The table and tabbed panel below details all five box shapes for the A minor-diminished arpeggio for the
6-string guitar in the AGEDC octaves style.

Once the individual box shapes have been assimilated all five shapes should be linked together and played in one continuous exercise (with the first shape - 5Am3 - being repeated at the 12th fret). The video shown to the right demonstrates the AGEDC octaves chain-linked sequence for the A minor-diminished arpeggio box shapes. |
The complete TAB for the previous exercise follows:-
