Hi Everyone,
In this lesson we're talking about the A shape, which is linked to the C shape. Just like the previous lessons, we dive into the variety of triad voicings we can get out of the A Shape as well as the most common 4, 5, and 6 string versions of this movable chord shape. We also talk about how the A shape connects to the C shape and how you can get some interesting movement between the two shapes.
Check out the homework sections to help you get more familiar with the A shape, as well as the practice sections, to help you actually use your new knowledge in fun, creative ways up the neck of the guitar.
Here is the Jam Track: A Major I IV V IV Also attached below in mp3 form.
The bonus practice section not listed on the PDF is to practice using all three shapes (D, C, & A) to create some interesting movement.
Once you're feeling comfortable with this material, move on to the G shape.
Post your homework, questions, and audio or video of your practice creations to the community forum.
