With one simple hack, I will show you an easier way to play a Major 7 arpeggio cleanly and effectively on the guitar. I'll demonstrate this in two positions when playing the arpeggio. Discovering this has been a game-changer for me and I was pleasantly surprised when I saw footage of George Benson using the same fingering! Later in the video, I show ways of easily altering the shape to produce a Major 9 arpeggio. This arpeggio works equally well for Jazz Guitar, R&B Guitar, Neo-Soul Guitar, and Pop Guitar.

Check out my Arpeggio Lesson Pack "Excellent Arpeggios". It covers my approach to playing arpeggios for all chords needed to play Jazz, R&B, and Pop: ua-cam.com/video/XUH1LD-yN-8/v-deo.html
That didn’t just change the way I approached the Arpeggio. It opened up a new approach to melodies around it. Thanks once again.
Love your teaching style Andy. Thank you.
Nice way to approach arpeggios! Great lesson! Thank you.
This is how I want to learn to play. Those licks are so tasty! My fluency with my picking and fingering hands isn't up to playing those. Beautiful!
You have an outstanding approach to the neck of the guitar coupled with a passion for revealing it’s intricacies. Superbly Done, Maestro!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎🍎
Mannn Andy I hate I sold my Dangelico. You make me want to get another one. Just have a nice clean tone. Great lesson as always 🙌🏽
@AndyDacoulis -- I love seeing how other people mastered the instrument by discovering their own ways of doing things. It would be great to see how Django and Wes found their ways through this. Watching videos of Wes, it looks like he played all single-note lines with just three fingers, but Django did it with only two. Django's injury limited his use of fingers 3 and 4, but Wes probably decided that the pinky just didn't do a good enough job. I find myself thinking more like Wes, and that means like you - I don't use the pinky when I can avoid it. If we watch blues players like Clapton or SRV, we see the same thing -- pinky avoidance!
What about the major-7 arpeggio? I suspect Django would play 2 notes per string -- if we start with the low G#, play 2 notes per string, always with fingers 1 and 2, it works out nicely, and we can jump up to the high G# and A to complete a third octave. We can do the same thing for minor 7 but using fingers 1 and 3. In both cases we play 7-1 on one string then 3-5 on the next string. Of course, we could start with the root, if we wanted to.
I'm with you on this one, Mike. If I can avoid using my pinky, I will opt for my 3rd finger as it's stronger and more accurate.
It's better for squeezing the tone out of a note with a more dominate grip. More expressive and subtle bends and vibrato in passing.
No, I was not doing that. This is going to be very helpful, cheers.
Just grabbed your arpeggio course and will be diving in soon.
Love you’re playing Andy! When do you plan to release an album (hopefully with plenty of originals)?
Thanks David! I'm sure that you will get a lot out of the Arpeggio course. Studying them is a great way to learn the fingerboard and makes playing over changes much easier. No idea about an album - between gigs, teaching, and UA-cam my time is pretty limited. But who knows! Thanks for your support
your
your sound is great, could you tell me something about your instruments?
thanks a lot

Hi Aless - the guitar is a D'Angelico Excel SS. I use the Line 6 Helix to record with. Thanks
Hi Andy. What is the settings on your delay. I did bought your presets but they dont work on my HX Stomp and dont have the Lt anymore.
Hi Lars - I always use a stereo delay. One side is an 1/8 delay, the other a dotted 1/8. I adjust the level to my liking.
I am waiting for a Andy Dacoulis masterclass on Truefire among the greatest :D
You know I’m stealing !!!
Haha - for the number of things I have stolen from you, you are welcome to this!
Pinky Power ✌️❤️💪
