This video contains 16 chord progressions in a variety of styles that you can use a starting point to write your own songs on guitar.
Songwriting is not an easy task: sometimes it's hard to get inspiration. I know in my case that the biggest boost in inspiration happens when I try a beautiful chord progression and try to put my spin on it.
Feel free to take any of these chord progressions and add your own embellishments to make beautiful music!
This is useful for singer-songwriters, composers or solo electric guitar songwriters.
We cover all ranges of styles from post-rock, pop, LoFi, jazz, ambient, prog rock and more!
Hope that will be useful!
*NOTE: I do not give my permission to use the sound clips of my guitar playing in this video to sample for your own songs. Your song is going to sound much better if YOU play on it!

Thanks for these roadmaps to some beautiful chords! Playing them means for my old hands some finger gymnastics. And attempting some impossible maneuvers... some chords seem to be impossible to reach without very long fingers - which I am not blessed with... :( but I find my way, making my choices and compromises - there is more than enough to pick from on the plate. ;)

@coastalgeorgia6558 10 ай бұрын

it would be great to have a rundown of the chord numbers and what key, substitutions, etc make thse work. thanks

This has nothing to do with this video, but you're the reason I recently picked up the Electro-Harmonix Oceans 11 and the TC Electronic Flashback. Both of your demo videos were exceptional.

@squashfan9526 10 ай бұрын

Great video, really helpful to share these ideas. Minor point (pun intended) on #9. The C#msus2 should be C#sus2 - the 'sus' is suspension of the 3rd, replaced by the 2nd, so it's neither minor nor major.

Great catch, thanks! Probably copy/pasted to go faster and forgot to remove the "m".
