Open strings and root positions

1 of the 7 open strings belong to F# Major 7 Arpeggio: string 3 E# (7). None of those open-string tones is the F# root, so the root must be fretted on every string.

Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play F# Major 7 Arpeggio on the low G string at frets 3, 6, 10, and 11, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets E# on open string 3 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 11, 4, 11, 6, 1, 9, and 4, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
