What Are Arpeggios on Guitar For Beginners?

Today's beginner guitar lesson is about what are arpeggios on guitar for beginners. Hey guys, Brad Litton from SimpleGuitar.com here with another guitar lesson for beginners for you on some essential guitar theory. When I was teaching myself guitar, I had no clue what guitar arpeggios were. I was overwhelmed enough with learning chords and scales that it just sounded like something really complicated that I didn't understand. And that's after having piano lessons for a few years, too. So when I finally learned that arpeggios on guitar were as simple as picking out the individual notes of chords (that's what it means when you see something that says to arpeggiate chords) I was shocked. Then as I've gotten better and learned how arpeggios work all over the fret board, it makes learning how to play guitar so much better.
