Arpeggiosinversions

Hello dear UG members, my name is Jani and in the UG forums you probably know me as the " That finish guy with a Beethoven avatar"
I have been playing guitar little bit over two years. On that time
I have been mainly focusing on learning the secrets of shredding. My Favourite guitar players at the moment are
Yngwie.J.Malmsteen, Paul Gilbert, Steve Vai, Guthrie Govan and all those players use arperggios on their guitar playing.

So In this lesson I am going to tell you a littel bit about arpeggios&Inversions and how to use them in your guitar playing.
So what are arpeggios? Arpeggio are, simply, a broken chord, and a broken chord means that you play the tones of the chord melodically, or one by one, instead of harmonically, which means at the same time. The most basic arpeggios are Minor and Major arpeggios. Of course, there are lots of different types of arpeggios, like minor, major, diminished, augmented 7th's, minor 6th's, minor/major/diminished/augmented add 9's and lots of other types of arpeggios, but in this lesson we'll stick to the basics.
So how you can use arpeggios in your guitar playing? There is lots of diffrent ways, but the most common ones are: sweep picking, tapping and alternative picking.
The pattern for the Minor arpeggio is: 1, b3, 5. The root, minor third and perfect fifth. to create an minor arpeggio in the key of E minor. The notes in a key of E minor are E, F#, G, A, B, C, D, E. You can make three minor arpeggios in the key of E minor: E minor, A minor and B minor, and because the pattern for the minor arpeggio is 1, b3, 5, E minor would have the tones: E, G and B. Even if the tones are in a diffrent order like G, B, E it would still be an E minor arpeggio. Its just inverted. The second inversion of the E minor arpeggio would be B, E and G.
Inversions:
An Interval is inverted by raising or lowering either of the notes using displacement of the octave/octaves so they both retain their pitch classes. For example, the inversion of the notes (lower)E and G (higher) , would be (lower)G and E ( Higher).
And if you want to invert these notes (lower)A and B It would invert as an (lower) B and A. Notice how that Major second inverted as a minor seventh. Here is an list about the inversion of the intervals.
Unison-Octave
Second-Seventh
Third-Sixth
Fourth-Fifth
List about Interval quality under inversion:
Perfect-Perfect
Major-Minor
Augmented-Diminished
You can also invert Chords&arpeggios.Invertiing chords can really refresh your normal rhytym playing. Here is a few examples about chord&arpeggio inversions:
A minor chord on the root position. A,C,E
A minor chords first inversion C,E,A
A Minor chords Second inversion E,A,C
G major chord in a root position G,B,D
G major chords first inversion B,D,G
G major Chords Second inversion D,G,B
Notice the logic on this?
Here are a few examples of three string sweeped E minor arpeggios:

     |--3--|    |---3--|  ---          
     E  E  E    E   E  E               
E||--------7h--12p--7--------|-------||
B||-----8--------------8-----|-------||
G||--9-------------------9-|-------||
 
The first inversion of the E minor arpeggio:
      |---3---|    |----3---|     3    
      E   E   E    E    E   E     E    
E||----------12h--15p--12------|-----||
B||------12----------------12--|-----||
G||--12------------------------12|-----||
 
The second inversion of the E minor arpeggio:
   
E||----------15h--19p--15------|-------||
B||------17----------------17--|-------||
G||--16-----------------------16|-------||
 
Here are a few examples of tapped E Minor arpeggios on different Strings:
      S   S  S   S   S S  S  S S S S   S  S   S S             
E||--12h-15-T19p-15p-12------------------------------|-------||
B||--------------------------5h-8-T12-8p-5------------------|-------||
G||-----------------------------------------9h-12-T16p-12p-9---|-------||
 
D||--14-h17-T21-17p-14-----------------------------|----||
A||-------------------------7-h10-t14-10p-7----------------|----||
E||----------------------------------------------12-h15-t19-15p-12-|----||

Of course you can invert tapped arpeggios as well, but I don't want this whole article be just full of tabs.

A few examples of two string E minor alternative picked arpeggios:
E||------------7----|-------||
B||--5----8---------|-------||
 
first inversion:
E||-------------12----|-------||
B||--8----12----------|-------||
 
Second inversion:
E||--------------15----|-------||
B||--12----17----------|-------||

The pattern for the Major arpeggio is: 1, 3 and 5. The root, major third and perfect fifth. To create an major arpeggio in the key of E minor, the notes are E, F#, G, A, B, C, D, E. You can make three major arpeggios in the key of E minor: G major, C major and D Major. G major would have the tones G, B and D. Even if the tones would be in a different order like B, D and G, it would still be a G major arpeggio. Its just inverted. The second inversion of the G major arpeggio would be D, G and B.

Here are a few examples of three string sweep picked G major arpeggios:
E||----------10h--15p--10----------|----||
B||------12----------------12------|----||
G||--12------------------------12--|----||
 
First inversion of the G major arpeggio:
E||----------15h--19p--15----------|-------||
B||------15----------------15------|-------||
G||--16------------------------16--|-------||
 
Second inversion of the G major arpeggio:
E||--------7h--10--7--------|-------||
B||-----8-------------8-----|-------||
G||--7-------------------7--|-------||
 
Here are a few examples of tapped G major arpeggios on diffrent strings:
E||--3h-7-t10-7-3----------------------------------|-------||
B||--------------8h-12-t15-12-8--------------------|-------||
G||----------------------------12h-16-t19p-16-12---|-------||
 
D||--5h-9-t12-9p-5-------------------------------------|----||
A||---------------10h-14-t17-14p-10--------------------|----||
E||--------------------------------15h-19-t22p-19-15---|----||
 
Here are a few examples of two string G major alternative picked arpeggios:
E||-------------10----|-------||
B||--8----12----------|-------||
 
First inversion:
E||--------------15----|-------||
B||--12----15----------|-------||
 
Second inversion:
E||--------------19----|-------||
B||--15----20----------|-------||

So I hope that my article helped you even a littel, I may write more articles in the future.
