7th Chords
7th Chords by Rob Metz
A major scale consists of 7 notes. Chords are built from these notes. The key of A major is A Bm C#m D E F#m and G#m7b5. There are 3 basic ways that each of these chords can be played as 7th chords. The 1st way is using a root note on the low E string, the 2nd is a root note on the A string and the 3rd is using a root note on the D string. I will play through these in the video to show you how you can practice them . Play them beginning on the low E string at the 5th fret for
you’re a major 7 chord and progress through the key until you end . You should start from each step of the scale (begin with 1 ; A and the next time start with Bm the 2 and so on… ) You can do this exercise using 3 low E root note shapes, 3 A string root notes and 3 D string root notes.
