Lesson: Applied Arpeggios Continued

Here is another lick using the major form in fifth position, key of A:

Dave also asked how to apply these forms:

These are D major arpeggio inversions.  The first has the fifth (A) in the bottom, the second has the root (D) in the bottom, and the third has the third (F sharp) in the bottom.
I use the first form (based on the open D chord shape) in this lick from "Staplesnakes".  The chords are going from A to G to E.  The first two arpeggios use this form.  The last one uses the minor shape in root position covered earlier.
