Guitar: How to turn three-note chords into seventh chords

 In Zelus Academy’s online guitar course, you’ll learn to enhance your playing by incorporating seventh chords. Seventh chords build on 3-note chords by adding the seventh note from the corresponding scale. In the key of C Major, we start with the basic chords (C, Dm, Em, F, G, Am, B dim) and transform them into their seventh versions.

For example, the seventh versions in C Major are Cmaj7, Dm7, Em7, Fmaj7, G7, Am7, and Bm7b5. Practicing these seventh chords alongside their basic forms will deepen your understanding and improve your versatility.

To get started, alternate between playing each basic chord and its seventh version. For instance, play C and then Cmaj7, Dm and then Dm7, and so on. This methodical practice will help you internalize the sound and finger positioning of these chords.

Our guitar online learning program at Zelus Academy is designed to make learning seventh chords straightforward and enjoyable. By the end of this module, you’ll be able to seamlessly incorporate seventh chords into your playing, adding richness and complexity to your music.
