Chords

These lessons were designed to get you learning as many guitar chords as possible. As you know, chords are one of the fundamental building blocks of playing guitar, so the more chords you have mastered, the better. Once you’re at Level II-III, make sure you start learning chord theory as well and remember that you have our free guitar chord library at your disposal as well.
