G Major: Bass Chord Arpeggios

Video Transcript

"OK, so now let's say we're in the key of G major. You want to apply the same pattern. So, G major of course is going to be a major arpeggio and major triad. It's probably where if we were playing a song in the key of G major, this note would probably be our ending and starting note. Sweet. For our major, yeah, G, B, D, octave for arpeggio, D, B, G, ok? Now, a whole step up, we have our minor second chord, A, C, E, A, E, C, E. OK? Minor triad, two frets up from there, a whole step we have our B minor triad, ok? We have C major. OK? From here we have D, another major, this is the five chord. Alright? Remember, we're trying to avoid going past the twelfth fret octave for now, But we can go to the E here, the twelfth fret of the A string. We do a minor arpeggio for the six chord, which is E. Then F sharp here, a whole step away, is our diminished. Then we're at the G octave. So watch that. That's G major, A minor, B minor, C major, ok? D major, E minor, starting on A, F sharp diminished, and then we're at G major, the octave. So if we were in the key of G major, you'll probably find a lot of these chords and now you can outline them with your arpeggios and triads."
