F# Minor-Major 7 Arpeggio in 7-String Standard Tuning
F# Minor-Major 7 Arpeggio in 7-String Standard Tuning shows the same f# minor-major 7 arpeggio chord tones across 7 strings tuned B E A D G B E. The seventh string adds lower chord-tone positions below a six-string layout while keeping the upper strings familiar.

Open strings and root positions
1 of the 7 open strings belong to F# Minor-Major 7 Arpeggio: string 5 A (b3). None of those open-string tones is the F# root, so the root must be fretted on every string.
First root on each string
Low-string pattern
On the lowest B string, the first-octave arpeggio pattern falls at frets 2, 6, 7, and 10, with the F# root at fret 7. On the highest E string, the first F# is at fret 2.
Practice this tuning-specific layout
- Play F# Minor-Major 7 Arpeggio on the low B string at frets 2, 6, 7, and 10, saying each note name and degree aloud.
- Build a phrase that lets A on open string 5 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 7, 2, 9, 4, 11, 7, and 2, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
