I wrote a riff – how do I create a chord progression for it?So, you’ve been playing the guitar for a while now. You know your basic open chords; you know what scales are and you know a few songs.

And now, you want to start creating your own music. You want to write a melody and play a few progressions on it. You want to create your own chord progressions to sing or solo on top of.

If you’re done with the “I just got a guitar” phase and want to start creating some real music – I invite you to check out Guitar Chords Demystified!

Unlock the inner mechanism of chordsThe first step to writing your own music and creating your own chord progressions is understanding the chemistry of the chords. Understanding what makes a chord and why the C major chord is the C major chord.

That’s exactly what we’ve designed this book to do. It’ll break down the chords you know and love, teach you what’s inside and how it is constructed, all in plain English.

Then it’ll give you the tools you need to string multiple chords together and create your own chord progressions. It’ll also teach you what chords go together and how you too can create beautiful harmonies!

You’ll even learn how to play the same chord in different places on the fretboard using the CAGED system. And what shape to play in what context.

And to top it all, the book includes practical applications of the theory in multiple chord progressions that you can pick up and jam away with!

Another Great Guitar Head Book

An excellent chord instructional that is good for both self-study or to be used by an instructor teaching from beginners who know the basics (NOT good for complete beginners) up through intermediate guitarists. Well worth the price.
