In order to fully benefit from this tutorial, or any of my theory lessons, it is a good idea to go back and look over my lesson on intervals, lest you get...

Excerpt: Hello, I now bring you part 2 of this tutorial. To start, we will be working with Augmented, Diminished, Sus4, and Sus2 chords. For simplistic reasons, we will be building these (once again) in the key of C major but the chord formulas (root, major/minor 3rd, perfect/diminished/augmented 5th, etc.) will stay the same for all 12 keys like in the previous les...

We’ll just be dealing with the most common forms of the 7th chord for this lesson and as the original had done before, we’ll be going over these with the root on the A string but we will also be going over ones that have the root on the low E string, as well as the root on the B ...

Excerpt: Now onto the Minor 7th chord. For this 7th chord (Chord #19-21), we lower the 7th as well as the 3rd. So with this new information, we have the makeup of a minor 7th chord which is: (C-Eb-G-Bb). Intervalically, this chord can be seen as: (Root, Minor 3rd, Perfect 5th, Minor 7th). For the A form of this chord we just take the Dominant 7th form we had before...

Excerpt: Welcome to Part 4 of this tutorial, where we will be going over all the different forms of the 9th Chord. But before we begin, we must understand something called the "2-4-6 Rule". Simply put, all this means is that the 2nd, 4th, and 6th degrees of the Major scale are the same as the 9th, 11th and 13th counting up past the octave, and we know this with how ...

Excerpt: The next form of the 9th form we’ll be looking at is the Minor 9th form which is built by taking a Minor 7th chord form (C-Eb-G-Bb), and adding on the 9th to it to give us a Minor 9th chord, which goes like: (C-Eb-G-Bb-D) Intervalically, this can be seen as: (Root, Minor 3rd, Perfect 5th, Minor 7th, Major 9th). (Ex.19-20) The A form of this is built ...

Excerpt: The next group of chords that we will be looking at are 11th chords. All an 11th chord is, is just another extension of the major chord. A full 11th chord consists of a root, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, and 11th, but if we are going to be playing these on the guitar, we usually eliminate a note, and from what we've learned before, we eliminate the 5th, because the...

Excerpt: In this lesson, we will be focusing on the different types of 6th chords that can be formed, so let's get started. A 6th chord is built basically the same way as a 7th chord, except that instead of a major 7th, we put a major 6th in its place so what we have is a chord that is built as: (1-3-5-6) Or intervalically, it can be seen as (Root, Major 3rd, Perfec...

Excerpt: In the final installment of this tutorial, we are going to be looking at the different versions of the 13th chord, so fasten your seat belts. A full 13th chord has 7 notes in it: (1-3-5-b7-9-11-13). Intervalically, this full chord can be seen as: (Root, Major 3rd, Perfect 5th, Minor 7th, Major 9th, Perfect 11th and Major 13th) When we play this on the guit...
