The CAGED System
5 open chords become movable as barre chords:
Moveable Barres
The root note octave shapes of the chords encompass the entire neck when all played as the same note:

The octave shapes become a point of reference for scales, arpeggios and chord voicings:

Deriving the Harmonized Major Scale
Chromatic Scale (Each note represents 1 fret)
A A# B C C# D D# E F F# G G# (repeats/circular)
(Bb) (Db) (Eb) (Gb)
Maj Scale
w w h w w w h w = whole step = 2 frets
h = half step = 1 fret
Apply w‐h formula to the chromatic scale to generate the Maj scale for a specific key
This works for each pitch so there are 12 keys/scales total (not including modes)
C Major scale
C D E F G A B C
Chords are based off the idea of thirds

Apply w‐h formula to the chromatic scale to generate the Min scale for a specific Minor key
This works for each pitch so there are 12 keys/scales total (not including modes)
A Natural Minor scale NOTE: A Min is the relative minor of C Maj (The containt the same 7 notes)

Locrian #6 1 b2 b3 4 b5 6 b7
Once you understand the concepts Ionian #5 1 2 3 4 #5 6 7
try assigning 1 of the 5 patterns to each Dorian #4 1 2 b3 #4 5 6 b7
weekday. For example, practice all the Phrygian Dominant 1 b2 3 4 5 b6 b7
different scales and arppeggios in Lydian #2 1 #2 3 #4 5 6 7
pattern 1 on Mondays, pattern 2 on Alt Dominant bb7 (Fully Diminished) 1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 bb7
Tuesdays etc.
Melodic Minor 1 2 b3 4 5 6 7
If that is too overwhelming then just Dorian b2 1 b2 b3 4 5 6 b7
focus on patterns 2 and 4 of each scale Lydian #5 1 2 3 #4 #5 6 7
and arrppgeggio. These are the most Lydian Dominant 1 2 3 #4 5 6 b7
guitaristic shapes and by learning them Mixolydian b6 1 2 3 4 5 b6 b7
for each mode you will actually cover all Aeolian b5 1 2 b3 4 b5 b6 b7
5 eventually. Altered Scale 1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 b7

1. No fingerings are indicated. Although it is important to begin practicing with a defined
fingering, in the long run it will be important to let your playing context determine your
fingering.
