Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play C# Dominant 7 Flat 9 Arpeggio on the low G string at frets 1, 4, 6, 7, and 10, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets D on open string 6 ring, then connect it to the nearest C# root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the C# root positions on strings 7 through 1 at frets 6, 11, 6, 1, 8, 4, and 11, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
