Lesson 9

Now lets add some notes and make chords from our scale

Diatonic = means all the chords and scale notes are part of the key with no alterations or accidentals.

Triad = means a 3 note chord

This is what the scale looks like if you just used 1 string

The distance between any two notes is called an interval

We add 1 more note to the top of the triad to make it into a 7th chord

The Mute Symbol is an "X"

Strum the guitar while lightly palm muting the strings with left hand in chord position

Let's review the C Major Scale from lesson 3
