Free PDF Mandolin Movable Arpeggio Scale

What is an arpeggio, from Wikipedia "an arpeggio is a broken chord where the notes are played or sung in sequence one after the other, rather than ringing out simultaneously" like if you are strumming. " An arpeggio in the key of C major going up two octaves would be the notes (C, E, G, C, E, G, C)."

Our latest chart is a Movable Mandolin Arpeggio Scale. Using the fingering above you can create an arpeggio scale for any key. This is done by finding the root note of the key you are in and then using the finger positions above to create your scale. This makes it very easy to produce notes for a solo or accents to the song you are playing.

You can see all of our chord and music charts at www.AcousticMusicTV.com, also want to dig in a little deeper with arpeggios, check this book from Amazon, Mel Bay presents Fluid Soloing - Book 1 Arpeggios for Lead Rock Guitar, (affiliate link)
