Guitar Chord Master, Book 3 (PDF)

Master Power Chords in Standard and Drop D Tuning

Power chords are at the heart of every rock song, but they don’t stop there. They are used in nearly every genre of popular music. Not only that, but learning power chords helps prepare you for more advanced chords like barre chords and moveable shapes, by strengthening your fingers and getting you acquainted with the location of their root notes.

It's not Memorization. It's Mastery.

Guitar Chord Master 3 is your guide to mastering all the different types of power chords in an easy to follow format including over 150 pages of instruction and practice. While mastering power chords, you’ll also learn to navigate the neck as you play them from the open position all the way up to the 12th fret. Along the way, you'll also learn the theory behind power chords as well as how to use them creatively. We'll also explore drop “D” tuning, palm muting, and you'll master a bunch of new strum patterns. By the time you’ve completed this book, you’ll be ready to play a countless number of rock songs and tackle barre chords with confidence!
