Top 10 Most Popular Chords on the Guitar ... and how to play them

👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻Click Show More to Expand👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Hey guys, welcome back to another guitar lesson! Today I am going to show you the ten most popular chords on the guitar.

Some chords indeed resonate better with the guitar. Think about the difference between a basic C major chord and a beautiful C#m9 and how the second chord can massively influence your songwriting.

Some of these chords can be considered to be the most famous chords on the guitar. The type of chords you know since you started playing the guitar.

We are going to have a look at:

1. Dadd9
2. Aadd9
3. Emaj7
4. Am(add9)
5. Dm(add9)
6. Em9
7. F#m7(11)
8. Eadd9
9. G6/9
10. Fmaj7(#11)

I am going to play a musical example for each chord so that you can hear how they sound.

I hope you get inspired.

🎸FAQs:
Are you a full-time YouTuber?

How long have you been playing guitar for?
I started playing guitar when I was 10 years old, so it has been more than 20 years. I have always loved fingerpicking guitar, so this is why all my tutorials focus on this topic.

Why are you on Patreon?
Patreon is great! It allows creators to make money doing what they love. On Patreon, I can share my guitar lessons with my Patrons and get paid for it. As a creator, I feel like Patreon really made a massive difference in the way I share my content :)

Do you do concerts?
I used to do a lot of gigs in the past. London is a great place to play music almost every day. When my YouTube channel started to grow, I decided to go all in and try to help as many people as possible learning guitar. This goal takes all the time I have available, so I am not doing any gig or concert atm.
