Play F Power Chord Arpeggio on the low Eb string at frets 2 and 9, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Play the arpeggio without using an open string, then stop on the nearest F root each time the line changes strings.
Connect the F root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 2, 9, 4, 11, 7, and 2, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
