Play Eb Minor 7 Arpeggio on the low D string at frets 1, 4, 8, and 11, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Play the arpeggio without using an open string, then stop on the nearest Eb root each time the line changes strings.
Connect the Eb root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 1, 6, 1, 8, 6, and 1, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
