What is the caged system for guitar?
The CAGED system works by using common open chord shapes to map out the guitar neck into five distinct sections. It helps simplify the fretboard by revealing the relationship between common open chord shapes and note/interval arrangement on the guitar.
Is caged system for beginners?
Also known as the 5-pattern system, CAGED is simply the chords C, A, G, E, and D. These five chords are chords every beginner learns right away and the idea behind the CAGED System is that these five basic chord shapes can be repeated all over the neck in order to make any chord in any key.
How do you memorize a guitar caged system?
The trick to the CAGED system is to visualize the chord shapes without the capo. This is easily done by memorizing where the root note for each chord shape is located. The root of the E shape is the open 6th string. The open 5th string is the root of the A shape.
What is the caged system for scales?
In a nutshell, CAGED Scales are one way of exploring all the regions of the neck of the guitar. The system breaks down each region of the neck into an easy-to-navigate scale in one position. CAGED Scales are movable (by sliding the shape up or down frets), and can be used in any key.
