Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play F Minor-Major 7 Arpeggio on the low G string at frets 1, 5, 9, and 10, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets C on open string 4 ring, then connect it to the nearest F root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the F root positions on strings 7 through 1 at frets 10, 3, 10, 5, 0, 8, and 3, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
