CAGED octaves (Baritone VI guitar : E1 standard - EADGBE)
C major scale (ionian mode) : General
In this BLOGoZON we take a look at the C major scale (ionian mode) and join them all together
for Baritone VI guitar (E1 standard tuning - EADGBE) to form one long CAGED octaves chain.
The CAGED octaves sequence is shown for C natural in the diagram that follows:-

The diagram that follows shows all five of the CAGED octaves shapes for use with the
box shapes for a Baritone VI guitar (E1 standard tuning - EADGBE)
The diagrams that follow show all of the C major scale (ionian mode) notes plotted over the
Baritone VI guitar's (E1 standard tuning - EADGBE)
fretboard
in the CAGED octaves and GuitarPro6 styles.

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 scale (ionian mode) are detailed below in the CAGED octaves manner.
The tables and tabbed panels below detail all five box shapes for the
C major scale (ionian mode) in the CAGED octaves style.
