Slash Chords Example 8 – Open Major Slash Chords Perfect for practicing your new C major slash chords learnt above. This chord sequence uses C, C/D, C/E, C/F, G, Am, F, C. One of my favourite major chord progressions is from the Joe Satriani song called Starry Night.

Slash Chords Example 7 – Joe Satriani Starry Night Chords Now we can use our Hendrix slash chord lick in C, F and G to create a common pop chord progression. Slash Chords Example 6 – Hendrix in C, F and G Watch the attached video to see how the fingering I use to play this example. Slash Chords Example 5 – Hendrix style Slash ChordĮxample 5 demonstrates a quick practical example of using a slash chord in the style of the incredible Jimi Hendrix. I have written these as C/C (which is C major but I wanted you to think of the root note), C/D, C/E, C/F, C/G, C/A and C/B. Now that you have learnt the notes of your C major scale, and know your C major barre chord shape, we are going to put all of the notes of the C major scale underneath the barre chord to create seven slash chords. Slash Chords Example 4 – C Major all Slash Chords The upper three notes will be used to create all the slash chords seen next. Slash Chords Example 3 – C Major Barre ChordĮxample 3 shows a C major barre chord in barre one, and just the upper three notes of the chord in barre two.

In example 2 I have demonstrated the notes on the A and E strings. Slash Chords Example 2 – C Major Scale 5th and 6th StringsĪlthough it is easier to visualise the C major scale on one string, for practical chord construction we need the notes to be closer together. We will use this scale to create all the major slash chords seen in the next examples. Slash Chords Example 1 – Single String C Major ScaleĮxample one shows a C major scale (C D E F G A B) on one string.

In the following examples I will show you how to create all the slash chords available in the key of C major and how to move them to any key. A slash chord is written ” chord / over different bass note.” For example C/G is a C Major chord, with the note G as its bass note. Slash chords are not named after the famous Guns N Roses guitarist, but by the way they are written. In today’s lesson, we are going to explore using major slash chords.
