C chord and different positions
By filling in these illustrations, you will begin to know every note on the fret board. You will begin to see how everything repeats all over the fret board.
The first illustration below shows the C chord played up to the 17th fret. Use
the blank illustrations to fill in all the chords of C major all over the fret
board. Also begin to fill in different scales and modes. Use an illustration to
fill in the Aeolian scale in different locations. Each circle below shows
the C chord played at a different position. Each C chord is played using a
different type of chord. For Example, the first C chord is played in the open
position. The next C chord is played using the Root 5 A type bar chord. The next
C chord is played using the G type bar chord. The next is played using the Root
6 type bar chord. Begin to see how the C chord is situated over each scale
position.
