Learn to Play Guitar Chords

[Dominick Harvey]

You need learn how to play, strum and fingerpick guitar chords
software to correctly apply and understand chord extensions on the
guitar fretboard. Chords are basis of your rhythm guitar work. This is
the other side of the equation from your lead guitar work. To play
lead guitar you need to understand rhythm guitar and to play rhythm
guitar you need to understand lead guitar. They work together.
Understanding guitar chords is more than just learning that chords are
when two or more notes are played on adjacent guitar strings either at
the same time or in quick order. And that chords are made up of three
notes to make up a true chord which is the root, third and fifth tone
of a scale.
Learning chords is more than some simply strumming and fingerpicking
techniques. For example, playing open chords could land you a great
and prosperous career with some great singing without the need for any
further study. But success and knowledge are not always linked. Your
limit to success could be you ability to only play some memorized open
chords.
However, if you are more than a basic guitar beginner you already are
playing various guitar chords on your guitar fretboard and you already
have some understanding of chords and what they mean. If you take a
look at open chords for example, we most likely really don't even know
much about them. For example can you play all types of extensions with
open chords and understand how to construct these properly on the
guitar considering the guitar is different from a piano keyboard
therefore all is not as simple as you may have thought? Do you
understand how to put these chords together in various ways from a
music theory perspective? Now there is much to consider other than
looking up some free "chord finder" on the internet or getting some
chord book, or some junky chord finding software thrown together to
make a quick buck off of your ignorance. By the way our company is the
one that made the original chord scale and arpeggio finding software
that blew away the junk that is out today and that was for DOS.
Advanced understanding of guitar chords and the musical perspective
does not come easily to most guitar players. Part of the problem is
what is available on the mass market and the phony internet reviews,
dime a dozen sites that make it hard to find quality instruction. And
the other part of the problem is your desire to spend more money and
time trying to save a buck than just getting something right to begin
with. Guitar education with chords is a major study and endeavor, if
you begin to treat it with respect than you can get great guitar
software and really move forward with your guitar playing ability.
