The Am arpeggio is built from the notes A (R), C (♭3), E (5). On Haute Gitanerie you can see it across the whole guitar neck: contained position boxes, long diagonal forms, and its parent scale (A harmonic minor), with note names in English (C D E) or solfège (Do Ré Mi).
The Am chord
The Am chord voicing uses those same notes (A (R), C (♭3), E (5)). Switch the fretboard to Chords to see gypsy-jazz voicings for Am, or keep Arpeggio to practise the tones one at a time. Same shape, two ways to hear it.
How to practise the Am arpeggio
Start with a contained position box near the low strings, then move it up the neck fret by fret, or follow a diagonal form for a two-octave sweep in the manouche style. Every note is labelled with its interval (R, ♭3, 5), so you always know where the root, third, fifth sit.
