The shape for the minor version looks just like a power chord but inverted. So playing 7th fret on the a string and 5th fret D string will give you a E and a G which is the root and 3rd of a e minor chord. Sounds great with distortion, once i see you understand what im talking about ill list out all of them in the key of e minor for you! Edit: I just saw your post above and it talks about some of what i was talking about ------ ------ ---2-- ---3-- This is root + maj 3rd! i love this shape. i think this is F Major ------ ------ ------ ------ ---4-- Yes this would be considered diminished! Root + b5 ---3-- ------ ------ ------ ------ ---5-- ---5-- thats a perfect 4th interval, i use them alot cause they sound really cool when you slide them ------ ------ Sorry if anything is wrong here, ive only been learning for about a year and a half You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

There are usually several ways to be intelligent, given a situation, but it is a small finite number. But there are always a zillion ways to be to blithering idiot. So finding a new way to have the intellect of an artichoke is nothing to be proud of really, it is easy to do. So true... To bad im still an artichoke haha

You can have root - 6th to get a cool sound as well. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Sep 14 2008, 06:14 PM	GMC:er Posts: 1.255 Joined: 12-April 07	Here are come cool chords I like to use instead of powerchords: (I don't know the names of them all, but I'll post tabs) A major intercal with an octave soudns great and for example, it could be like this: D 7 A:4 E:5 A power chord with an added 9 (I think): D:9 A:7 E:5 Something diminished: G:5 D:4 A: E:5 A nice variation to a power chord with an added flat 9 or something, I don't really know: D:8 A:7 E:5 A minor interval: A:3 E:5 And there are lots of other options, but these are the ones I use mostly. I made all chords A-something, but you get it. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
