Summary of This Book
Designed as a true guitar chord dictionary in pocket format, this book gathers a wide selection of positions to accompany, compose, and transpose without wasting time. Each chord is presented in simple diagram form, allowing immediate reading of frets, strings, and fretboard markers for quick finger placement.
The presentation emphasizes clarity and efficiency: moving from a major chord to its minor version, to a seventh, or to a more colorful variant becomes natural, whether you are working on chord changes, cadences, or typical progressions. It is a reliable resource to review open chords, approach the first barre positions, and secure your chord changes with a visual guide always at hand.
Versatile, this dictionary is aimed at the most common styles such as pop, rock, folk, or jazz, and helps build richer accompaniments, harmonize a melody, and adapt a piece to a new key. Compact and designed for daily use, it easily slips into a guitar case to be available at any time, on stage or at home.
