How to read this arpeggio
The chord tones are shown as pitch classes first. In the fretboard tool, square markers represent C# root notes, while circular markers represent the remaining tones in the arpeggio.
Use the interactive fretboard to locate the C# root notes and connect the remaining major 7 chord tones across standard tuning.
This same arpeggio shape is also commonly called C# Major Seventh or C#Maj7.
