Open strings and root positions
2 of the 6 open strings belong to Eb Augmented Arpeggio: string 6 B (#5) and string 1 B (#5). None of those open-string tones is the Eb root, so the root must be fretted on every string.

Practice this tuning-specific layout
- Play Eb Augmented Arpeggio on the low B string at frets 0, 4, and 8, saying each note name and degree aloud.
- Build a phrase that lets B on open string 6 ring, then connect it to the nearest Eb root and two other arpeggio tones.
- Connect the Eb root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 4, 11, 6, 1, 9, and 4, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
