    Video Transcript

    "Alright on this segment we're going to do the E major seven chord and I'm gonna, again, show it to you in two different positions. Beginning on the twelfth fret, E, then the third finger is on the fourteenth fret on the A string. On the G string it'll be on the thirteenth fret and then of course, being that we're barring the twelfth fret with your first finger and you thumb basically in parallel with your first finger to ensure that it's barred correctly, it'll sound like this. Now if you want to play it from the A string simply go to the seventh fret which is E, then third finger on the ninth fret and then your pinky also on the ninth fret with the G being barred on the seventh fret to give it, of course, that seventh tonality, or major seventh in this case. It'll sound like this. So again the E major seven chord down here will sound like this."
