Overview

Chords, chords, and (almost) nothing but chords 

Guitar Chords For Dummies is full of, well, guitar chords. This indispensable reference is a must for guitarists of every ambition, skill level, and musical genre, providing a key to the simplest and most complex guitar chords—over 600 in all. Each chord is illustrated with a chord diagram and a photo with guitarist’s tips sprinkled throughout the book. You’ll also get a tiny bit of music theory, so you know what’s going on with all those symbols, and voicings for each chord in each of the 12 keys. And it’s even small enough to fit in your guitar case. Add sparkle and range to your musical repertoire.

  • Reference over 600 chords spread over 12 keys 
  • Easily try out new chords, thanks to the portable, lay-flat format
