Members meandi Posted July 8, 2010 Members Share Posted July 8, 2010 I'm doing music for a smokey bar room, slow/medium shuffle, urban blues tune. Looking for a good musical vibe for the tune, I'm experimenting with 6 chords to add a bit of an urban jazz feel to a minor blues progression. Here's my take on the application of these chords to said progression, as I understand my theory. The numbers indicate which finger I'm using, on the fret hand, to to shape the chord...not the fingerboard position. G6 --------3---- --------3---- ---------4--- -------1----- --------X---- --------2---- Being a major chord, this shape can be moved around to different positions & used as the 1, 4, 5, 2, 6, or 3 chord. Am6 ------3------- ------3------- ------3------- -----1-------- ------X------- ------2------- To be used as a 2 chord. Amb6 -------3----------- -------3----------- -------3---------- -----1------------- -------X---------- -------2--------- To be used as a 3 or 6 in the progression, depending on neck position. Comments, insights, corrections, examples... Thanks much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
