Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play B Augmented Major 7 Arpeggio on the low G string at frets 0, 3, 4, and 8, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets F## on open string 7 ring, then connect it to the nearest B root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the B root positions on strings 7 through 1 at frets 4, 9, 4, 11, 6, 2, and 9, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
