Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play B Augmented Major 7 Arpeggio on the low D string at frets 1, 5, 8, and 9, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Play the arpeggio without using an open string, then stop on the nearest B root each time the line changes strings.
Connect the B root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 9, 2, 9, 5, 2, and 9, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
