Chord Construction – Major and Minor

The first lesson by our latest author Dr.Furqan Ali Shah looks at constructing the major and minor chords. This is a good place to start seriously learning about music theory.

Finntroll – Trollhammaren

Finntroll is a folk metal band from Finland. They combine black metal and Finnish polka, called humppa. Although it is a Finnish band, Finntroll’s lyrics are in Swedish, because Swedish just sounds "damn trollish", according to the band’s first vocalist, Katla. This lesson shows how to play the intro to Trollhammaren (Troll Hammer)

Drop 2 Chord Voicings

One of the most important skills that a guitarist needs to have is the ability to build and understand chord voicings. The old days of buying chord books and trying to memorize 1000′s of chords is not only a daunting task but also is needless and generally a waste of time. It is so much easier to learn how chords are voiced and to be able to build chords as you need to by some relatively basic steps that can be easily learned . This lesson teaches you the Drop 2 voicing.
