Course Overview

Learn Guitar Chords with Songs : The 7th Chords

Learn the Major 7th, Minor 7th and Dominant 7th Guitar Chords

Do you want to learn more chords on the guitar other than the major or minor chord? Do you want to learn the 7th chords and add some new sounds to your guitar playing? In this course we will learn the major, minor and dominant seven chords with series of guitar lessons, songs, chord chart exercises and ear training games. They are very common and it's very probable that you came across the 7th guitar chords before.

This course will include:

  • 9 little songs/etudes to help you master the major 7th, minor 7th and dominant 7th guitar chords.

  • 4 chord chart exercises, to practice reading and playing songs just by following the chord symbols.

  • Guitar lessons on music theory; and on the major 7th, minor 7th and dominant 7th guitar chords.

  • Fingerpicking techniques and lessons using the etudes (little songs), and you will learn: arpeggios, soloing techniques, hammer-on, pull-off, rhythm exercises etc.

  • Ear training games to recognize these chords.

This course is actually the 2nd part of a comprehensive guitar chords course. In this part we will learn the 7th chords through exercises, songs and chord chart practices, so you will be able to play all the major 7th, minor 7th and dominant 7th chords in all the shapes and form all over the fretboard.

Learning guitar does not have to be boring! That’s why we are using a set of songs and exercises to make guitar playing fun, and in this course you can practice your chord changes and all the 7th chords with 9 different little songs/etudes. Each etude will come with a guitar lesson, and in these lessons you will also learn fingerpicking, vibrato and many different other techniques to make your songs come to life. You will learn arpeggios, soloing techniques, chord picking techniques, hammer-on and pull-off as well as different rhythm exercises that will make you sound amazing. These etudes will be presented at two different speeds: a practice speed and a full speed.

Most songs are either 4/4 or 3/4, so the chord chart exercises will be presented in these time signatures. During these exercises, you will be challenged to play the chords by following just the chord symbols while I will be playing the solo over your strumming. These exercises will give you an inside of how a professional guitarist works when they play in a band or for a singer, as many times they do not have time to learn all the songs by heart, so they have to follow chord charts.

And finally in the end we will do a little ear training game, which will help you to recognize and distinguish major, minor and 7th chords. This is a very useful technique which will enable you to learn new songs in the future by ear.

This course has been recorded and filmed on a classical guitar, but the material is equally applicable for those who play electric or acoustic steel string guitar.

Sheet music is provided for all of the songs and exercises in this course. These will be in three formats: standard musical notation, guitar tabulature (TAB), and GuitarPro format.
