How2Arpeggios


So you want an Arpeggios?

What is an Arpeggio? well, an arpeggio is a chord. Instead of playing all the notes of the chord at one time, each note is strummed seperatly. Example:
D5 Power Chord (1,5)   D5 Power Chord (1,5) as Arpeggio
E------
B------
G--7---
D--7---
A--5---
E--5---
 
E----------------------------
B----------------------------
G---------7-------7----------
D------7-----7-------7-------
A----5----------5-------5----
E--5----------------------5--

With arpeggios it is best to make the shape with your fingers just like you where going to play the chord, except just pluck one note at a time the way they are in the tablature. Doing this does add melody to songs that are power chord driven.
