Hi Everyone,

In this lesson, I help you distinguish between sus2 and sus4 chords. We also dive into specifically how to make them and discuss the difficulty with using certain chord shapes to make sus chords. Get to know these foundational concepts well before the next lesson, where we'll talk about sus chords in a key and start preparing for the main difference between sus chords and add9 or add11 chords.

If you have questions, want to start a discussion about a particular aspect of sus chords, or want to show off your tinkering with sus chords, come hang out on the community forum.
