Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play C Minor-Major 7 Arpeggio on the low E string at frets 3, 7, 8, and 11, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets B on open string 5 ring, then connect it to the nearest C root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the C root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 8, 1, 8, 4, 1, and 8, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
