Question!! (Non pacifica related)

Hey guys i need a little more help understanding how to use the CAGED scale shapes when embellishing chords.

For example if i play a C major using the E shape but i want to then move to G major using the E shape and i embellish of that G major from the notes of the E shape am i not using notes from the scale of G major?

Say im in the key of C major and i want to play the 3 chord (E minor) using any of the CAGED shapes. If i want to embellish the chord am i taking notes directly from the scale shapes making up the chord?

Also wondering how long it took you guys personally to learn the “essential” theory and how you achieved it!

Setup question!

Not really a Pacifica specific question but evb has been super helpful in here so

Having trouble with getting the intonation down…
As a beginner the notes i want to play are inconsistent and i cant tell if the strings intonation needs to be adjusted or not because of this (since my notes arent always consistently in tune). If anyone knows how to get around this plz help lol
Thanks!
