As always a more long term solution to fretboard navigation is to see scales 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
C major arpeggio are detailed below in the BAGED octaves manner.
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all seven box shapes for the
C major arpeggio for 7-string guitar (Low B).
