Here’s a lesson on chord inversions. In basic terms, inversion means reversal, so basically we’re talking about re-arranging the notes in a chord.
Note that this doesn’t mean we’re changing the notes, just re-arranging the order in which they appear.
You can use chord inversions in your soloing, and also to create new sounds with your guitar chords.
The first inversion of a chord is the standard 1 3 5 pattern, for instance, an A major is A, C#, E. Those three notes are technically speaking, the first inversion of an A major. You can also re-arrange the order of these notes, and that’s where we start getting different chord inversions.
