BAGED octaves : 5-string bass (Low B - BEADG)
C major-minor arpeggio : General
In this BLOGoZON we take a look at the C major-minor arpeggio box shapes and join them all together
for 5-string bass (Low B - BEADG) to form one long BAGED octaves chain.
The BAGED octaves sequence is shown for C natural in the diagram that follows:-
GuitarPro6 fingerboard : C natural octaves
The diagram that follows shows all five of the BAGED octaves shapes for use with the
box shapes for a 5-string bass (Low B - BEADG).
The diagrams that follow show all of the C major-minor arpeggio notes plotted over the
5-string bass' fretboard in the BAGED octaves.
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-minor arpeggio are detailed below in the BAGED octaves manner.
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all five box shapes
for the C major-minor arpeggio in the
BAGED 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 - 5B3 - being repeated at the 12th fret). The video shown to the right demonstrates the BAGED octaves chain-linked sequence for the C major -minor arpeggio box shapes. |
