CHORD and SCALE finder

Post by Gary Lynch »

For the players out there that want to make life easy when switching tunings or maybe just learning some basics. Steinar sent me this link to a 'chord finder' web page. It is the best I have seen. Easy to use and covers an unbelievable amount of material. I usually have trouble figuring out how to use them but this one is laid out very simple. A great tool that makes finding chords and scales fast and easy! Just click on the tuning (upper left) you want to use.

There's material within this finder's capabilities that a seasoned player could learn from.

So many possibilities, so little time.....

Even better:

The looknohands one doesn't print correctly. This one is printable and allows you to add strings so you can have 8,10,12 strings if you want. You have to play around with it a little bit. At first i thought it didn't work. Make sure you go to the diagram page and hit "show all notes". You can adjust the width and height of the diagram there as well.
