What chord is it?
These four notes can work as different kind of chords, try to give us some chord names 😉
Very good answers from you guys! 💪💪💪 Here's the guitarLayers analysis, searching equivalent chords among "complete" four-note structures, with both the 3rd and the 7th. But of course it could be also an incomplete A7 etc...
For me, it has a kind of Db melodic minor sound. But used isolated as a chord, I would probably used it as a C7b9 or a Bbø7(♮9).
E has to be named Fb, so it could be Bb minor 9. Bb is root 1, Db is minor third, Fb is fifth, C is ninth.
No root A7b9#9 or C7b9 drop 2 voicing
Bb 5?
C7b9, Bb dim(add 9), Db min/maj 13
C7b9
C7b9... Santina Lanza
C7 b9
C7(b9) , Bbdim(add9) , Dbm6(Maj7) , Gb7(#11) ?
C 7/b9
F#m9-5
A7

Arpeggios obtained by stacking proper intervals
Here a Bbmaj13 arpeggio, with a modified note order, obtained by stacking 5th and 4th intervals.
Play these intervals, from the bottom to the top one, as arpeggio sequence and you will get a typical Steve Vai's riff with repeated notes 😉
Would love to see the stacking of theses notes!’
This intro is a nice variation on this idea youtu.be/rsTXN6KK3Mg
I use this idea to develop an interesting arpeggio formula! Great analysis
Harmonic Minor diatonic arpeggios
(the remaining six shapes!)
As promised, here the remaining six (of twelve) Harmonic Minor Scale vertical shapes harmonized with one-octave diatonic arpeggios.
Download the first six shapes from the previous post on this page in case you have missed them.
Practice them as a sequence and use each single arpeggio to break the linear sound of the scale when improvising.
Stay tuned for other micro lessons and diagrams 😉

Diatonic 6ths intervals
In major and minor scales there are two types of Diatonic 6ths: major and minor. Major 6th has distance of four whole steps and one half step. Minor 6th has four whole steps distance between two notes.

Ok so I only just found I could do this the other day after practicing hammer ons and pull offs for a few months, my questions is with the right hand, how do you know which fret to be tapping at?
Look at the fret numbers
those patterns are originally from a lesson that accompanied an interview with Jennifer batten in guitar player magazine...back then there were only 4 main tappers...eddie van halen,steve lynch.,Stanley Jordan and Jennifer...those patterns were u play on every alternate string are jennifers approach
Yeah!!!
thanks man!!!

Wes using Maj9 arpeggios
Maj9 arpeggios can be used over a min7 chord to extend its sound with the ninth and the eleventh.
For example, on a Cm7 chord (C Eb G Bb) you can play a Eb Maj9 arpeggio (Eb G Bb D F).
Here a beautiful excerpt of Wes Montgomery playing Nica's Dream using a Db Maj9 arpeggio over a Bb min7 chord and a B Maj9 arpeggio over a Ab min7 chord.
In order to find it easly, each arpeggio as been mapped inside the dorian scale of each chord.

Triad Pairs inside scales shapes
Triad pairs are a good way to play a scale, in your improvised lines, without just running up and down that scale. Triad pairs give a very fresh and modern flavor to your lines.
Here major triad pairs contained inside the major scale (or its modes!), play them by alternating phrases in a call-answer way.
Play, for example, 3 notes of the first triad (or 2 or 4 as you like) ad then proceed with 3 notes of the second triad and again other 3 notes of the first and so on.

“I came from the last couple of years in a generation where we didn’t have a computer around... so we didn’t waste as much time on the internet as we do now... so I had large chunks of time which to devote to doing something.” - John Mayer
The thing is, the Internet is also a perfect source for learning things, playing the guitar (or maybe singing) in this case. I think it is up to us to manage what we do with it and with our time.

The Whole Tone scale
Among symmetrical scales, the whole tone is one of the favorite jazz musician's choice to obtain an altered non-diatonic sound.
If we stack these scale degrees to create a chord, we get 1, 3, #5, b7, 9, #11. So, the whole tone scale can be played over a dominant 7th or 9th chord with a sharp five and sharp eleven. You can also use it over other types of chords or bass pedals to create an interesting in-out effect.
Here some of the most common and convenient ways to visualize the scale on the fretboard.
