Open strings and root positions

4 of the 6 open strings belong to G Minor-Major 7 Arpeggio: string 6 D (5), string 4 D (5), string 3 F# (7), and string 1 D (5). None of those open-string tones is the G root, so the root must be fretted on every string.

Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play G Minor-Major 7 Arpeggio on the low D string at frets 0, 4, 5, and 8, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets D on open string 6 ring, then connect it to the nearest G root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the G root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 5, 10, 5, 1, 10, and 5, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
