I have tons of great lessons at Master Guitar Academy. Join me there - it's where you can learn with me every week. That's also where all my DVDs and Premium Downloads are.

In this lesson, you will learn the A7 arpeggio in one area of the neck, using all 6 strings. It's a very powerful but also quite simple concept. I encourage you to learn these chord tone arpeggios all over the neck.
It really is the secret of how to play melodically!
Got a question for me? Let me know what you want me to teach you - just add your question here.
I want to tell you about the guitar lesson web site JamPlay. They have kindly offered a special 7 Day Free trial to visitors of Dolphinstreet.com. I have reviewed their site, and I have to say it is VERY impressive.
There are lots of teachers and many different areas to learn from. It is well organized, and you can learn songs, techniques, etc - very complete website for learning. After 7 days, you will pay a monthly subscription continue. For the 7 trial, you don't have to give out your credit card number.
Go check it out and see what you think. Since it is completely free for 7 days, you really should test it out. You have nothing to lose. If you are interested in learning guitar online, you would be silly not to take advantage of this. If you do decide to sign up, I receive a little bonus, so this way you help support dolphinstreet as well!

I have lots of gear demos too on this site. Go and take a look at some of my Guitar Videos for some examples of gear I use or have used.
I've used the A7 arpeggio as a boogie/rock/blues type bass pattern for years not knowing it was an arpeggio. I just knew the pattern could be heard as a bass or guitar part in thousands of songs. I play it going up the neck rather than staying in the A7 5th fret position. Are there similar ways of playing other arpeggios such as an A9th or diminished?
