Description
Here is the skinny on this course, but please read my story below as it will really help you understand that I was right where you were.
This course is the most direct, rewarding path possible to upgrading your chord vocabulary by 96 of the most used bar chords. I use a two-prong approach to do this.
First, we need to truly understand how chord shapes work and how they can easily be moved up and down the fretboard, 12x-ing ANYTHING that we learn on the guitar.
The second part of this course teaches you how to think about bar chords in smaller, easier chunks. This will give you a better sense of “problem areas”, which allows the guitarist to isolate and remedy any issues quickly and painlessly. Instead of “going for” a 6 note chord, getting frustrated and putting the guitar down, I walk you through a step-by-step process that is guaranteed to get you playing bar chords fast.
I’ll also show you the CAGED system and how bar chords dovetail nicely into all of that.
Here is my story and why I created this course for you:
I was like a prisoner set free…
When I was 14 years old, I discovered the beautiful world of guitar. I was obsessed with every classic melody and chord progression my ears captured. I would quickly run to my guitar to replicate everything I heard. However, in a short time, I hit a wall. I found that there were certain things I could not replicate and was baffled as to why.
As it turns out, I was running into riffs, licks, and even chords played by guitarists who knew the power of bar chords, which I did not… This stopped my progress on a dime. I couldn't do what they were doing because I didn't understand the shapes they played further up the neck. And on rare occasions, when my ear could figure out where they were playing, my hands did not know how to do what they were doing. I decided to grab the "bull by the horns."
However, my progress was painstakingly slow. I didn't understand. I got frustrated. I thought of quitting… So, I decided to do something different.
I first sought to understand how bar chord forms work across the fretboard. You know, the "theory" part. Once that clicked, I laughed at how much that made sense. As it turns out, half of my battle was done, and it was a super simple understanding that I tricked myself into not understanding. WHAT A RELIEF!!! I was like a prisoner set free from his cell. FINALLY, it now made sense.
Once I learned this, I shared it with all my guitar buddies unfamiliar with bar chords.
The second part was getting my fingers to do what these bar-chord players did.
How can ANYONE play that chord?
So although I understood the forms of the chords, I still could not play them. When learning songs, I often said, "How can ANYONE play that chord?" Have you ever said that yourself?
But I was still obsessed, and NOTHING was going to stop me. My thought process was this: I can play hundreds of other bar chords if I can play a whole F bar chord. Although true, I could not play a full F major bar chord. So I did what I have gotten good at over the years…breaking stuff down and making it VERY simple.
I thought if I could play a two-note version of this chord, I would eventually get to three-note versions, and so on, until I was playing all six notes from the chord.
Slowly and indeed, it happened!!! And when it did, not only was I playing all those parts that I once could not play, but I was also integrating bar chords EVERYwhere, and IT FELT AMAZING!
I have set you up with these videos as previews, and I can promise that if applied, it will get you playing bar chords as fast as possible.
The videos I'm setting you up with today are:
1. Course Overview/Welcome video: Get a 30,000-foot overview of what we will cover.
2. Understanding the chord forms.
3. Introduction to the F chord.
When I unraveled this puzzle, I was elated! I expect you will be as well. As it turns out, with these tools, it was fun and doable.
You've got this! Join us inside and finally conquer those bar chords!
