Barre chords can be moved around the guitar next to easily play any major chord:
  • 1st fret = F
  • 2nd fret = F#/Gb
  • 3rd fret = G
  • 4th fret = G#/Ab
  • 5th fret = A
  • 6th fret = A#/Bb
  • 7th fret = B
  • 8th fret = C
  • 9th fret = C#/Db
  • 10th fret = D
  • 11th fret = D#/Eb
  • 12th fret = E

Major chords use the 1st, 3rd and 5th notes from the major scale:
G# = G#, B#, D#
Ab = Ab, C, Eb

Our chord uses the notes in these order:
G#, D#, G#, B#, D#, G#
Ab, Eb, Ab, C, Eb, Ab

Try playing this chord in different positions and tune back soon for another guitar chord of the day.
