G barre chords at the 3rd fret

Barre Chords are played with the index finger of the left hand placed across all 6 strings.
This will take a while to get used to but practise will get you there!
I'll show you during Guitar lessons how to play this shape so that long term your technique
will be fine.

g major  
g minor barre
g7 barre





g7sus4


gm7


gsus4





When played at the 3rd fret these chords are "G" (G7 or Gm etc)
They are "
moveable
" so when played at other frets they
become different names.
So for example G minor played at the 5th fret is A minor.
Play the G major shape at the 1st fret and you have F major.



C Barre Chords at the 3rd fret

c
cm
cm7





c7barre


c7sus4


csus2barre




As with the G chords, all these C chords are moveable.
The chord name changes as you move along the fretboard.
So C minor7 played at the 5th fret is D minor7 and so on.
