Any Insights On Three-Octave Arpeggios?

[judge_gideon]

I was wondering if anyone had a good practice drill for three-octave arpeggios.

I want to develop techniques which race up and down the neck, rather than just across the strings.

Thanks, whoever you are :-D

You're just wanting some three-octave arps?
Some random arp:

e----------------------9-12-15
B-----------------8-11--------
G-------------6-9-------------
D---------5-8-----------------
A-----4-7---------------------
E-3-6-------------------------
and back down

You're going to hate me for linkage but this isn't my work so ethical me can't copy and paste. So :p... :)

Is there a special way to fret arpeggios? Am i just supposed to move my hand up the neck really fast?

[judge_gideon]

Thanks Trea,

I'll have a look - linking is okay - I just want to see
CONTENT CONTENT CONTENT! :D

But, I'll try that example you gave me - thanks

LOL, your avatar seems like it is some sort of graphical depiction of being "deprived of sanity"...Yes, your kitty has now been stuffed into a terra cotta flower pot. How poetic :D

Haha, that was from a b'day card I gave to my mate. It had that on the front and inside it said "For your birthday, I grew you a cat"
Definitely original.

Deprived of Sanity is the name of one of my bands :).

Two kittens approximately the same age? This really is getting weird :o

(*edit: I meant to use a "look of surprise" emoticon, but got a "yawn" instead. I thought it would be like Yahoo! emoticons. tsk)

[judge_gideon]

Trea,

Jeff Beasley is definately a good teacher, although he made a mistake on example 9.

He meant to show the 7th flat 9, but instead, played a simple C7 arpeggio.

Anyway, I'm not trying to complain :D

(BTW: I know lots of arpeggios - I just wanted to "seed" the forum with more ideas)

[Trigger_003]

All good mate :)

Chi, I'm still in 4 bands. I'm no longer in one of the concert bands I was in with trombone but now I'm joining the Aust. Youth Band...
Commonwealth Games and America = XD

EDIT: Haha way to cat up the forum Greg

Bump

[judge_gideon]

MRDuCran's examples are nifty, although his labeling is incorrect.

I don't mean to be nit-picky, but technically, an octave contains two roots. So, for the first example of the E Hirajoshi, from 12th fret low E string, to the 24th fret high E string - this is the span of 3 octaves.

The second example of Em, which is equally valid as an arpeggio fingering, is only 4 octaves, from the low open E string to the tapped note on the 24th fret of the high E string.

And finally, the third example of Cm7 from the 8th fret low E string, to the 20th fret high E string is only the span of 3 octaves.

I just wanted to state this, because other forum members might get confused.
