The CAGED System
Step 4 of 10 · Intermediate Guitar Path
Play any major chord in five places up the neck — and adapt the shapes for minors and 7ths.
What you'll learn
- See the five open shapes as one connected map of the fretboard
- Move any shape up the neck with a barre
- Find the root inside each shape using your new note knowledge
- Link shapes so chords, arpeggios, and scales share positions
This step is covered in depth on the The CAGED System guide. Open it, work through it, then come back and mark the step complete.
