Dissecting a G Major Chord
Have you ever wondered why a particular chord is what it is?
In this video I’ll teach you the notes that go into a G major chord, as well as C major. You’ll see that major chords are built on the I, III, and V notes out of the scale. One of the things to watch out for is that when you change chords, you change root notes. What I mean by this is on the G major chord, the G is the I, and on the C major chord, the C is the I.
I explain all of this in a lot more detail in my Guitar Theory Unlocked course, however hopefully you’ll be able to learn something from this video too.
Let me know your thoughts on this kind of teaching video – it is my first experiment using a tablet to relate guitar theory, and I’m curious to hear your thoughts on it!
