| Triad Inversions using the DOM 7th Chord |
|
Triad Inversions are what you say? Well they are basically a chord flipped upside down,inside out etc. using the same notes. Read On.....
In this lesson will we use the D dom 7 chord on the 4,3,2,1 strings. The first chord is the basic open position D7 chord.
D7 Root Positon
E ------2-------- B ------3-------- G ------2-------- D ------0-------- A ---------------- E ----------------
D7 1st Inversion
E ------5-------- B ------3-------- G ------5-------- D ------4-------- A ---------------- E ----------------
In theory a First Inversion chord is using the third interval of the chord as the Root. Which is F#.
D7 2nd Inversion
E ------8-------- B ------7-------- G ------7-------- D ------7-------- A ---------------- E ----------------
In theory a Second Inversion chord is using the fifth interval of the chord as the Root. Which is A.
D7 3rd Inversion
E ------10-------- B ------10-------- G ------11-------- D ------10-------- A ---------------- E ----------------
In theory a Third Inversion chord is using the seventh interval of the chord as the Root. In this case with a Dom 7th chord, the 7 would be a Flat(b)7 which is C.
Did you notice we used the same four notes D,A,F#,C throughout. See this is not hard! This pattern is movable in all keys give it a try. If you have any Questions please post them in our Guitar Forum or go to our Guitar Chat.
