  Speaker 1: Miles and welcome to the podcast. And this past week
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: I recorded a YouTube video about minor seventh arpeggios for
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: guitar and I thought i'd just break that down on
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: the podcast for you. So, a minor seventh arpeggio is
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: just like a minor triad with an additional minor seventh.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: So a minor triad consists of a route, a flat third,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: and a fifth, and then when you add a minor seventh,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: you get the minor seventh chord. And a great example
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: of this is a minor seven where you have the
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: root A, the minor third C, the fifth E, and
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: the minor seventh G. So that's ACEE G. And if
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: you look at the A minor scale, it consists of
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: the notes A, B, C, D, E, F and G.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: And you'll notice that you can struck the minor chord
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: slash arpeggio from the first, third, fifth, and seventh intervals
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: of that scale because the third and seventh intervals in
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: that scale are minor and to actually play minor seventh
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: arpeggios on guitar, there are a lot of options. You
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: can use two notes per string shapes. You can use
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: a tapping shape, and you can use a two to
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: one to two shape, which I kind of stole slash
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: derived from Tim Miller's guitar playing, and that's where you
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: play two notes on a single string, one note on
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the next string, two notes on the next string, and
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: then continue that process. And of course, as always, if
