How to Read Guitar Chord Charts/Diagrams
If you are just starting out with the guitar, learning how to read a chord chart is very important.

In this video, I will show you what those lines on the chord chart means, where you need to place your fingers, and even go through examples with you.

    Excellent video, love the clarity and how it gets to the point, no unnecessary chit-chat anywhere. I'm experienced with regular notation but needed to become aware of the various playing techniques, and to start writing for guitarists. From now on, I'll have tabs accompanying the regular notation so they actually explain how a given piece is meant to be performed, technically.
