A Major Arpeggio

The Major Arpeggio plays the three notes of a major chord, the Root, major 3rd and 5th, one at a time. It's the first arpeggio to learn: running it through its five Boxes, the CAGED shapes, shows where every major chord lives on the neck, and landing on its notes makes a solo follow the chords.
