Testimonials

I've looked all over the net for a clear understandable explanation of the "WHYS" regarding music theory as it relates to guitar chording and "41 Chords" makes it almost intuitively obvious. Thanks again.

Thank you. The book arrived today and it is the best that I have seen. You represent the best that business and integrity can be, a light where darkness is too often found. ... If you wish to use my words, go ahead.

A methodical arrangement of jazz guitar chords

Intermediate to Advanced Guitarists...

How do you get from one guitar chord to the next?

Which notes sound great played between the cracks of the chord? You can swing out here and play notes that aren't even chord tones. Use this to develop your unique sound.

You have only six strings and four fingers to work with. How do you play a jazz chord like B9#11? If you can't play all chord tones then which chord tones do you leave out?

Which inversion is best? Which melody note do you want on top? Which inversions can you reach? Which inversions best represent the resonance of the chord?

Suprisingly, the guitar chords that make the best use of resonance and harmony are comfortable to play.

If you want a reference to the best sounding guitar chords that are comfortable to play, inverted with your melody note on top and hand crafted by a master then you have come to the right place.

If you can hold a guitar, read tablature and barre your chords then expect to play the entire contents of the 41 Guitar Chords collection today.

The 41 Guitar Chords Collection embraces extensions like 9ths, 11ths and 13ths.

The 41 Guitar Chords Collection recognises all chord roots equally from C to Bb, F# and Cb.
