YOU
CAN
TEACH
YOURSELF:
EASY
TO USE
AND WELL-ORGANIZED
. . .
- No "chord
formulas" to memorize, no need to read musicYou
don't have to figure out how to use "chord formulas."
And you don't need to know how to read music. The Complete Guitar
Chord Poster shows you clear fingering diagrams for all the the
chords in all the keys.
- You
can teach yourself because the information you really need
is conveniently available.
It's way more convenient than looking up information in reference
books and computer programs.
- Seeing the
"big picture" makes it a lot easier for you to
recognize and understand musical relationships. You can see, clearly
and easily, how a simple 3-note chord gradually "evolves"
into various types of 7th, 9th, 11th, 13th and other chords.
4.
BEGINNER?
ADVANCED
PLAYER?
IT'S
EQUALLY
USEFUL
. . .
- For the beginnerThe
chart shows all the simple, basic chords in all major and minor
keys. The poster also includes scales for each key.
- For the "intermediate"
level playerChords get progressively more advanced
as you move from left to right across the poster. This makes it
easy for you to learn new, unusual chords and chord inversions at
your own pace, without losing track of your progress. Color bands
make it easy to identify each key. And to quickly transpose the
chords of a song from any key to any other key.
- For the advanced
playerEven the most expert player usually doesn't
have all chords in all keys memorized. The right
side of the Complete Guitar Chord Poster shows the fingering positions
of extended jazz chords such as Elevenths and Thirteenths, organized
so that you can find any chord fingering position in any key at
a glance.

- As well, a
special section on the left side of Roedy Black's
Complete Guitar Chord Poster shows you the six fundamental chord
types that make up the major and minor chord progressions in each
key.
- For example,
in the key of C, these six chords are:
|
C Major
F Major
G7
A Minor
D Minor
E7 |
(Major
Tonic, or "I-Chord")
(Major Subdominant, or "IV-Chord")
(Dominant Seventh, or "V7-Chord")
(Minor Tonic, or "VIm-Chord")
(Minor Subdominant, or "IIm-Chord")
(Dominant Seventh, or "III7-Chord") |
The Complete Guitar
Chord Poster groups these chords together for each key. So you can
use them as the basis for writing your own music. Or for learning
how songwriters use these chords and other chords in structuring
their chord progressions.

- If you want
your music to stand
out,
it has to sound "different." It has to incorporate sounds
that are different from what the listener has already heard over
and over.
- Roedy Black's
Complete Guitar Chord Poster provides instant access to the tools
you need to infuse your music with variety. You
can get additional useful and practical information on how to use
chords and chord progressions right here at CompleteChords.com.

- Fingerboard
scales: In the left and right margins of Roedy Black's
Complete Guitar Chord Poster, you will find fingerboard diagrams
showing how to play scales for each of the 12 major keys.
- Scales in
musical notation: If you would like to learn musical notation,
you can. You will find the staff and major diatonic scales (the
scales used most often) for each key located in the left and right
margins of the poster.
- Names of notes:
Each scale diagram shows you the name of each note within the scale.
The staff also shows you the scale position of each note. This feature
shows you how scale notes translate into chords such as triads,
sevenths, suspended 2nds, 9ths, 11ths, 13ths, etc.
13.
TAKE
ADVANTAGE
OF
FAST
CHORD
TRANSPOSING
. . .
- Songwriters
and composers find this feature especially useful.
- Suppose the
chords of a song are in the key of D. The chords might
be:
D,
Bm (B minor), F#7, Dm7,
and
A7.
How can you quickly
find the equivalent chords in a different key, for example, the
key of G? And how do you finger the chords in the new key?
- Here's how
you can do it fast
using Roedy Black's
Complete Guitar Chord Poster:
The red horizontal
bar contains all the chords for the key of D. The gray horizontal
bar contains all the chords for the key of G. So, wherever any
chord appears in the red bar, just play whichever chord appears
in the same column in the gray bar.
Here's the original
chord sequence in the key of D, followed by transposed chords
in the key of G:
|
Chords
in Original Key (Key of D) |
D,
Bm (B minor), F#7, Dm7,
A7 |
|
Chords
in Transposed Key (Key of G) |
G,
Em (E minor), B7, Gm7,
D7 |
You don't have to "calculate"
anything to transpose the chords from one key to another. Just look
at the color bar corresponding to the key you want to transpose
to. Then play whichever chords appear in the same columns
as the chords in the color bar of your original key. That's
all there is to it!

"When
I first saw this [Complete Guitar Chord] poster, I just burst out
laughing. I couldn't believe what I was looking at. All those chords,
all together like that, and so ingeniously organized, it's just
stunning. I bought three of them ... for me and the others in the
band. Somebody came up with a truly brilliant idea here."

NO
CONFUSING
"CHORD
SPAM"
. . .
- What is chord
spam? It's dozens of "partials" of the same five-note
or six-note chord, repeated over and over. Each "partial"
has a note or two removed to form a "new" fingering position.
- Chord spam
pervades chord books and computer programs. Typically a
chord book or computer program will show 20 to 30 fingering positions
for a single chord, such as C Major. But only four are unique
fingering positions. All the others are partials
of the four unique fingering positions chord spam.
This is how chord books and computer programs often boast of having
"10,000 guitar chords." The great majority80 to
90 percentis chord spam. Chord spam is very
confusing
when you're trying to learn new chords.
- Roedy
Black charts have no chord spam. Roedy Black's
Complete Guitar Chord Poster shows you only the
unique full chords and chord inversions. No chord
spam.
15.
LEARN
GUITAR
CHORD
THEORY
BUT ONLY
IF
YOU
WANT
IT
. . .
- You
can ignore the theory part of the Complete Guitar Chord
Poster without losing any of the main benefits. But if you do have
an interest in music theory, the chart answers such questions as:
- How do scale
degrees relate to chords? For example, the G Major Seventh
(GM7) chord is comprised of the first, third, fifth, and seventh
notes of the G major scale.
- Which specific
notes make up a chord? For example, the chord G Major Seventh
is comprised of the notes G, B, D, and F#.
- What is the
difference between root chords and inversions? For example,
when the lowest (bass) note of the chord G Major Seventh is G, then
the chord is in "root" position. When the lowest note
is B, D, or F#, then the chord is an inversion.

IMPRESS
YOUR
MUSICAL
FRIENDS
WITH
A STUNNING
PIECE
OF PORTABLE,
DURABLE,
AND,
ABOVE
ALL,
USEFUL
WALL
ART
. . .
- It's
a beautifuland extremely usefulpiece of art
for your practice space or studio wall. You can even frame it if
you want to. However, most musicians prefer not
to frame it. That's because the chart's laminated
surface makes an ideal "blackboard" for making notessee
below.
- It's portable.
You can take it to band practice. It weighs only a few ounces
much lighter than a book or computer!
- It's durable
because it's plastic-laminated on both sides. You can spill
coffee
or beer
on it, and you won't wreck it. It won't tear or fall apart. So you
will likely never have to replace it. Unless you get really loaded
and stomp all over it with hobnailed boots.
- You can write
on it because it's laminated.
Unlike chord books and computer programs, you can mark up and scribble
all over the laminated surface of Roedy Black's Complete
Guitar Chord Poster. The poster is "erasable." Use water-soluble
markers
in any colors you choose. Use the poster as a "blackboard"
for self-teaching or teaching others. Make notes when you're writing
a song. Circle the chords, scales, or chord progressions of interest
to you at the moment. Draw connecting lines if you want to. When
you wish to "erase" any of your markings or notes, simply
use a damp paper towel, tissue, or cloth to wipe them away. Just
make sure you use water-soluble
markers, available at any store that sells stationery or office
supplies.
- Matched pair.
As a guitar player, you may be interested in learning keyboard chords
and scales. Roedy Black's Complete Keyboard Chord Poster
exactly matches the Complete Guitar Chord Poster. The two charts
are the same size, with the same color
scheme, and the same information located
in the same places on each chart. So, if you play
one instrument, you can learn to play the other, using the matching
chart for the other instrument.

"My
Dad got me your guitar chord poster for Christmas. When I first
saw it, I kind of thought, wow! it's kind of overwhelming, because
I was just a beginner. But now that I've been using it for almost
six months, I'm making so much progress that I've started writing
my own songs. I showed [the poster] to my guitar teacher and she
got one for herself."

- Hey, it costs
less than a single music lesson. At $16, Roedy Black's
Complete Guitar Chord Poster costs less than a single music lesson,
less than a chord software program, and about the same as a chord
dictionary. Yet the Roedy Black chart provides much more
useful and more accessible informationespecially when used
in conjunction with the Chord Progression Chart.
- It will never
go out of date. Roedy Black's Complete Guitar
Chord Poster will still be just as useful 5, 10, 20 or 30 years
from the day you get it. Unlike books or software programs, you
will never have to spend money on "new editions" or "updates."
