I’ve recently discovered that if I split the guitar into 3 sets of 2 string sets. I can cut and paste and repeat these patterns on each string set. Allowing me to cover three octaves at a time while only remembering a 4 or 5 note pattern. Very handy indeed. I’ve included many arpeggio patterns here for you to see how this all lays out on the fretboard.

The diagram below is G Major Triad arpeggio. This is a 1:2 pattern. 1 notes on one string, 2 on the next. Repeat for each string set.
