How it works
1. Chords
- The chords in the song are shown as a table and in a photo.
- The numbers on the table show exactly which finger you should place on which string.
- The photo shows the position of the hand
Chords can be played in the open position or as barre chords.
The chord sound the best starting from the bass string.
2. Rythm
Every piece of music has its own rhythm.
For example, many songs have similar chords, but the rhythm and repetitions of the chords make the songs completely different.
In our teaching system, the rhythm of the right hand is indicated by arrows.
The arrows indicate in witch direction and how many times the guitar strings should be pulled.
As a rule, only one right-handed rhythm is used in the song.
For each song, the rhythms in all the songs are shown in the same way.
Watch example. See how the rhythm shown should be played.
3. PLAYING CHORDS
Once the rhythm of the song is in place, all the chords must be played according to the rhythm shown and as many times as the song calls for.
