	Acoustic Guitar Central: Embellishing Arpeggios, page5
		Though I’ve illustrated these embellishments with just one arpeggio, remember that they can be applied to any arpeggio, individual chord tone, or note.
		Notice that some of the arpeggios include the seventh and/or ninth of the chord, as in measures 5 (the G and Eb played over the Fm7 chord) and 15 (the D played over the Cm7 chord).
		This should give you an example of how to use these embellishments in your own improvisation and melodic playing.
