We can make a heck of a lot of music just by using the tones from the major, relative minor and parallel minor scales and the chord triads that are built from the scale tones. For each of the chord triad shapes, the proximity of available tones for extensions, alterations, and substitutions becomes readily apparent and most can be accomplished just by moving one finger. The concepts of partial chords, chord equivalencies, chord inversions, and chord substitutions make all of this possible. The CAGED sequence enables you to move in any direction along the fret board following a known repeatable pattern. All of the scales, modes, chords, and arpeggios are imbedded within each and every CAGED sequence. We can play major and minor scales and all of their modes, including the major and minor pentatonic and blues scales. We can improvise by focusing on the tones that make up the chord triads. Any chord triad shape from the CAGED sequence may be used as a starting place. We can freely experiment moving the chord triad shapes up and down the fret board and easily alter or extend them. By recognizing a few easy to memorize scale patterns we can move up and down the fret board and connect the CAGED sequence forms and alternate between them. Does this mean anything to you? Let me try to help.
