Practice this tuning-specific layout

  1. Play F# Sus2 Arpeggio on the low B string at frets 2, 7, and 9, saying each note name and degree aloud.
  2. Build a phrase that lets F# on open string 2 ring, then connect it to the nearest F# root and two other arpeggio tones.
  3. Connect the F# root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 7, 2, 9, 4, 0, and 7, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
