Open strings and root positions
2 of the 6 open strings belong to B Augmented Major 7 Arpeggio: string 5 F## (#5) and string 3 F## (#5). None of those open-string tones is the B root, so the root must be fretted on every string.

Practice this tuning-specific layout
- Play B Augmented Major 7 Arpeggio on the low C string at frets 3, 7, 10, and 11, saying each note name and degree aloud.
- Build a phrase that lets F## on open string 5 ring, then connect it to the nearest B root and two other arpeggio tones.
- Connect the B root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 11, 4, 11, 4, 11, and 7, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
