Must Know Bar Chord Progressions for Guitar!
Added 2018-10-20 17:34:18 +0000 UTCHello friends,
and welcome to another rhythm guitar tutorial. In today’s session we will learn how a less than common fingering of the major scale can reveal the positions of 4 essential bar chord progressions. The goal is to use movable shapes to achieve “stock chord progressions” so that you can easily transpose thousands of different songs. Let’s get started

For the C bar instead of placing fingers down the neck 234 try placing them 324.

2019-04-26 15:24:04 +0000 UTCI really appeciate your lessons. One question though, when you play a C bar chord shape you omit the low E-string. Should you always do that to avoid playing the wrong root note for the chord?
2019-01-11 05:58:28 +0000 UTCI really have a hard time jamming my 2,3,4 fingers into the Cmaj bar at the 3rd fret. Why not use the 8th fret and use the same form as the Gmaj?
