Day 93. CAGED system

Today I practices 1234s and scales as usual but also added one more routine on the CAGED system.

1234 exercise

4231 on the 5th fret

8th notes @ 130 bpm

4312 on the 5th fret

8th notes @ 130 bpm

4321 on the 5th fret

8th notes @ 130 bpm

Scales

Major scales

16th notes @ 90 bpm

Minor scales

16th notes @ 90 bpm

CAGED system

I just started this routine, so the goal was to play all CAGED progressions throughout the neck for all basic chords.

Major chords

Minor chords

Major 7th chords

7th chords

Minor 7th chords

Ear training

It was pretty hard today, but I managed to get to the level with 7 intervals on the 200th attempt. It means that if I was gonna make a mistake, I’d stop the training there. But fortunately here is the full practice with 400 answers.

Summary

Today I finally started something brand new. I didn’t know about CAGED system at all, and it’ll definitely come in handy in understanding of the chords on the fretboard.
