Arpeggios for study up the neck

[Cloverich]

After lots of off and on practicing over the years, I've gotten back into it and using a triad / inversions routine up and down the neck. I'm learning a ton, including the notes of the neck and playing in key. I understand how they translate to and from scales and believe my routine will develop most of those skills. The one thing that seems to be missing for me, at this point, is an understanding of arpeggios.

I'm wondering if there's any popular / commonly recommended courses or books or simple PDFs even that cover arpeggios? Specifically I am less interested in technique than in something that focuses on playing them in key in a variety of positions. I'm building an applied theory routine as it were, so am really looking for something that is along the lines of "play these ten arpeggios, then move them into a few keys" that I can to turn into muscle memory as a foundation for improv and such.

Appreciate any and all suggestions!

If not interested in practicing technique it's hard to say what you are looking for beyond simply arpeggiating the notes of the chord and possibly inversions of the chord you are playing. Of course there are different arpeggio patterns when doing that.

Hello Cloverich
not sure I quite understand what you'r asking but applying music theory means you ought to be able to work out the location of any arpeggio anywhere on the fretboard without using any aids / diagrams etc.
The only difference between a chord and an arpeggio of the same name is that with the chord you need to be able to hold all the notes at the same time, with an arpeggio the notes are arranged in ascending or descending order, so 135 or 531 but not 153 and you play up and down as well as across strings.

Get something like Guitar Pro and write up your own.

I have found justinguitar to be quite creative in how he teaches you to apply lessons through melodic playing. Check out his site. I prefer learning from videos, but he does have a mix of written lessons and videos. I've found some of his exercises quite inspirational - in that, you can quickly learn the exercise and then apply a similar approach in creating your own exercises using different scales etc.
