Guitar Lick Lab v2.0
Brought to you by Music With Marky
Enter a chord and instantly see the arpeggio notes, chord tones, formula, and fretboard positions. Great for learning to solo through chord changes instead of just running scales — and the best way to make lead lines lock into the harmony.

Scales give you a pool of notes, but arpeggios show you the notes that define the chord. When your solo lands on chord tones, it sounds more intentional and connected to the harmony.
Especially useful when chords move quickly or the progression includes jazz, dominant, diminished, or borrowed chords.
A scale tells you the overall key. An arpeggio tells you the notes inside the current chord. The best solos combine both: use the scale for motion, and use arpeggio notes as strong landing points.
The Scale Over Chord Finder shows the scale options that pair with this chord.
The simplest way to make a solo lock into the music: when each chord arrives, aim for a note inside that chord — usually the root or 3rd.
For full progressions, use the Chord Progression Scale Finder to see chord-tone targets for every chord at once.
Diminished and augmented arpeggios are symmetrical — the same shape repeats every 3 or 4 frets. Learn one and you instantly have it in multiple positions.
If you need to know where notes live to navigate freely, the Fretboard Note Finder is the drilling tool to build that map.
A short video on practicing better and learning guitar with less frustration. Plus occasional updates when new tools or lessons drop. Email only — no spam.
