Playing B Major Guitar Chords on the A String

Video Transcript

"RYAN LARSON: Now, we have our next set of chords that fall the eighth string. And these are a little bit lower because here is B on the eighth string. And here is our first chord. We have 2, starting on the A string, 2, 1, 1, 2. Very pretty chord. And I am just going from the 2nd fret to the 2nd fret. And you can add in your pinkie as well on the 3rd fret, third string if you want, and that's a nice chord as well. And then for minor, we go 2, open, 2, 2, 2. And if you were to play this up more, you would have, see, this is 4, 2, 4, 4, 4, and that is how you finger it. On for our 7th, you bring the fret up even one more. So we have our major, minor and 7th. So now, we are going to go through and look at those written on tab. We have 2 - again, our root is here - 2, 1, 1, 2, 2. Then our minor, 2, open, 2, 2, 2, and there's 7th, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2. So make sure you write those down at home and have it notated somewhere so you can go back and reference as we go through and use them and utilize these different chord voicings as we go through our piece."
