Most Important Chord Shapes For Jazz & Blues // Guitar Tutorial

Hey everybody! In this tutorial video I'm showing two guitar chord shapes, which I consider to be the most important ones in a Jazz and Blues context. These two shapes, or the whole concept, that I'm talking about, is based on a chords root, third, and seventh - so three notes only. This frees up at least one finger to add other notes to the chord. Besides its physical practicalities, I think that this way of thinking about chords will help you to understand more complex chords and give you a good understanding and overview of the guitar's fretboard. If you like what I'm doing and want to support my work you can leave a tip in the tip jar or invite me for a coffee ;-) https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/Phili...
