There are 3 exciting ways to create fresh chord sounds
for your songs. Once you learn these 3 ways you’ll never be
at a loss to know how to create great chord substitutions,
and for the rest of your life you can come up with original
arrangements of your songs.
These 3 basic methods are:
1. A simple question you ask yourself: “Into what other
chord will this note fit?” I will demonstrate this easy
technique many times on the DVD so you can SEE how easy it
is to come up with fresh chord sounds.
2. The “Half-Step Slide”. This technique creates all kinds
of new chords that you can use over and over again on song
after song.
3. The “Exchange a Minor 7th Chord For Any Dominant 7th
Chord” technique. This makes your playing sound more mellow
and gives it more variety.
These 3 chord substitution techniques will keep you busy for a lifetime coming up with your own fresh arrangments of songs.
