    X means that you don't play that string. O means that it is open. You include the string in your strum but do no fret it. You can learn more from Peter's How to Read Chord Charts video that is linked to in the info section of this page.

    Don't give up. I'm a beginner myself and have a hard time playing some of these as well, but one rule applies when you learn to play guitar: Allow yourself to get frustrated, and practise :) You will get it eventually.

      You just changed my life 🙌🙏🏼 it never dawned on me to “make my own”. I read your comment, made my own and it was awesome! My playing has always been very improvisational strumming to make melodies, so putting pressure on myself to learn chords in a traditional way always jammed me up because I have small hands and I can’t seem to accomplish the chords they teach so high up on the neck. Making “my own” worked and I created full chord sounds I that love! Thank you for the inspiration to improvise and improve 🙌🙏

    I can't believe I just now found this video and it's 10 years old. I love it. No talking or sponsor plugs. Just playing. Love the layout. The highlighting the note you're teaching and playing the major and minor form of it as well as the placement of the guitar chart. Sounds like simple, obvious things. But, a lot of instructors don't take the time to do stuff like that and they LOVE hearing themselves talk.

I want to learn how to recognize chord shapes on a guitar so I can play my bass with any group or musicians by following and interpreting the fretting hands on their guitars - even for songs I don't know. This will help me to be able to improvise on the fly! Thank you so much!

    Nice job! Technically your B chord is a slash chord though since you're barring the low E (string 6). In particular, B/F# since F# is lower in pitch than the root note of the chord on the A string (string 5). It's still B though and works!

    Minor's are usually used to play sad or depressing songs and Major is used for more uplifting songs. You can sorta tell from the tone. One sounds a little depressing than the other while the other one sounds uplifting.

    To all of you getting frustrated because can't play the Chords, don't give up, practice, and you will be able to play them.Guaranteed!I've got all of them shown in this video (and some others) down, the only one that I still have problems playing is the B major, it really needs your hand to stretch a lot to bring fingers 234 on the 4th freight, while keeping the barre` on the 2nd freight...

  • @Tyme4t2
    @Tyme4t2 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I was able to learn these chords (still working on the barre chords) and hear exactly how each one should sound. Everyone on TH-cam talks, stops and talks again when it comes to teaching chords. It is hard to see where their fingers are placed and how they are placed. It is hard to figure out exactly how they should sound when they stop, talk and move on to the next chord later on in the video. I am sure I am not the only one looking at all the videos and getting frustrated from, not only these issues, but guitars being too far away from the camera and having dark backgrounds. This video is in order, has the letters showing so there is no confusion, has the right colors and lighting to see what is being done and the best part is there is absolutely no talking. Could you please make a video for just Barre Chords (with the blue background) from fret 1 all the way to 10 or 12 (not sure where it stops)? I am sure a lot of us would greatly appreciate it.

Cause after you experience that pain on ur finger from the guitar, your skin on ur finger will be hard like kinda thick then you will not have a hard time pressing the chords cause it doesnt hurt anymore :)

      Try tilting ur finger just a bit.And putting your thumb on the middle of the neck,helps you press it down easier.Or it might just be your guitar.If it has a high action (string distance from the neck) than you wont be able to get a clean sound.I had a cheap 50 dollar guitar i first learned on And it was such a pain until i bought a tanglewood.

      Lot of people call that the "Neil Young G" - he uses that G-shape a lot, as do many folk and country players. It's a also great because by moving only fingers 1 and 2 over you can also get a nice C major chord, while you leave fingers 3 and 4 locked-off on the 3rd fret of string 1 and 2.

      Classical Acoustic is definitely the best out of the acoustic guitars, but Electric guitar is much different in the style you play it!

      Excellent Video! Apologies for butting in, I would love your opinion. Have you tried - Riddleagan Skillful Playing Remedy (probably on Google)? It is a smashing exclusive product for learning complex guitar chords and become a pro without the normal expense. Ive heard some super things about it and my friend at very last got astronomical results with it.
