✅ Full 1 hour G chord video 👉 https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/videos/andy-guitar-website-live-260406-180502?context=videos-search&order=recent 🎸 C chord video https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/videos/aaa-live-c-major-chord-explorer 🎸 D chord video https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/videos/aaa-live-d-major-chord-explorer In this lesson, we explore how the G chord works across the entire guitar neck, going far beyond the basic open chord shape. You’ll learn how to use triads, power chords, and the CAGED system to unlock new positions, build riffs, and understand how chords connect across the fretboard. This is a key step for any guitarist looking to move beyond beginner playing and start thinking like a musician. We also break down how iconic songs use the G chord in creative ways, including ideas from Pink Floyd and The Smiths. You’ll discover how to use the major pentatonic scale, chord embellishments, and riff-based playing to create your own ideas—not just copy songs. Try these concepts out and let me know your favourite riff in the comments!
