Chord-Melody Basics 1

In this lesson I will show you the essential chord voicings you need to know for playing chord-melody style.
We will start with major triads in root position, 1st and 2nd inversion on the top 3 strings and how to turn them into minor and diminished triads. I will also talk about the most efficient fingerings depending to which voicing you are going. Plus we will check out how to play diatonic triads in different keys and with all 3 inversions. All that said, the result is hopefully a whole new understanding of your fretboard! Grab your guitar and let’s dig in!
