Chord Progressions: Guitar Fretboard View (Everyfret)

Description

How do you play a chord progression without jumping across the fretboard?There are places on the neck where every chord of a key sits under one hand. In A natural minor there are two — fret 2 and fret 7. This edition finds all 25 of them across fourteen keys, and draws every chord at every one.That is the answer to the question this book has asked on its cover since the first edition.How it worksEvery key gets a spread. On the left, the grid: every chord of the key, drawn once at the fret it starts on, as a shape you can actually play. Read down a column and you have one chord all over the neck. A rule in the margin marks the frets one hand covers from a place where the whole key is within reach, and the positions are named under the grid. On the right, the scale on the neck — and every chord of the key drawn out at those positions.Where are the second-degree chords in E minor? Read down the ii column. Where is the G chord with its root on the fifth string? The number inside each dot tells you: 1 is the root, 3 and 5 are the rest.New in this editionA third more chord shapes than the first edition, every one found by a search that checks it against a real hand — four frets, no finger in two places — so nothing here works only on paper.Each shape is drawn once, in the row of the fret it starts on. A barre at the sixth fret is a sixth-fret shape and lives in row 6, rather than being printed again in every row a hand could reach it from.Each key's fretboard diagram now faces its own grid instead of sitting twenty chapters away.Six real progressions — three-chord, axis, doo- wop, ii–V–I, rhythm changes and twelve-bar blues — worked through all fourteen keys. The first edition listed chords by degree; these are the progressions themselves.Every hand position that holds a complete key, named on the page instead of left for you to find by counting.1,036 chord diagrams. Fourteen keys, major and natural minor. Standard tuning.For guitarists, songwriters and instructors who want the fretboard answer rather than the theory lecture.Every grid in this book is live at— free, no account, and nothing to install. Click a shape to hear it, type a progression to find where it sits under one hand, or change the key, the scale or the tuning. Each spread here prints the address of its own page. Read more
