Here is an overview of the Major scale in the key of C, using the CAGED system.
When playing these 5 scale positions it can be useful to be aware of when to shift position. The more you are used to it the easier the arpeggios and the other scale positions will be to play.

Hi !
I don’t understand what’s so special about this CAGED system, from what i’ve read it’s taking the chord shapes at the top of neck and using them on the rest of the fretboard but how is it that in this version of the major scale ?
Thank you
I guess it is better to ask someone who really uses it
