    Hello friends,
    In today's session we are going back to the fundamentals by learning the various positions of the essential major 7 chord harmony. Mastering this skill will provide you with more options as a rhythm guitarist, and will help you to visualize the connections between scales, melodies and the chords. Let's get started!

    Hey man, you are the top instructor on TH-cam lessons, I am a blind individual, I like the fact that you let us know what fingers go where, and you do it slowly, I like this tutorial, because you don’t only teach us one chord, but you teach us all across the Fred, board, I am subscribe to your channel and I just want to say keep doing what you’re doing and imagine that you’re giving a lesson to a blind individual and I will help a lot of us. Thank you man.

    Great lesson! The simple concept of using the different voicings of the barre chords to avoid occupying the same sonic space as another instrument is an eye opener for me.

    Lol, I've been playing guitar for almost 20 years but I never took formal lessons or took the time to learn music theory, so this is all new to me. Thanks for this video, it's actually really easy to follow along and understand the concepts you're talking about.

    Thanks. I just spent some of my late Saturday night/early Sunday morning watching and learning from this, and it was of course worth it. Thanks for putting up the shapes on the screen while teaching .The "first E" position mostly wasn't hard for me to finger, since I previously learned a similar chord for "Waiting in Vain".But the "second E "position will need some work out of me, especially when it comes to muting that high E string.

      @@Elijahandlife the Bible was written by a reflection of the oversoul. If by god, you mean Yahweh, he died long ago. Have you never read the Bible? Do you know who commands “his children” to love him? An abusive and controlling father. Also if Yahweh (not god, god is the oversoul we all descend from in life) was Omnipotent as he claims, he wouldn’t have fucked up with Abraham and his two sons.
      Also he sent himself earth to sacrifice himself TO HIMSELF for sins such as “not being faithful to the provider of ones nookie”, “don’t be envious”. Really just sounds like more indoctrination techniques from those trying to keep our power as entities away from us. Good for you, you’re playing right into that. I choose not to.
      Also, the Bible makes it hard not to make fun of it. Do you really believe that a boat carried every single species of animal? Take some time and google just how many species existed at the time of writing. There’s no way a boat made in that time was buoyant enough. Also if Yahweh really cared about you, no matter what he says, no way would he let you burn for an eternity with no reprieve. Keep in mind mixed fabric is a sin.
