Happy New Year 2014! yes, i congratulate all of guitarists who still fight for their music until today, i hope all of you stand still with me. Well, this post will be the continuation for my post:
Fun in basic, Major Chords, and now is about the minor chords on guitar.
FYI: these minor chords follow the natural minor scales, so as you can see the A natural minor scale notes are A(1) - B(2) - C(
♭3) - D(4) - E(5) - F(
♭6) - G(
♭7) - A(higher octave) and its interval is
w-h-w-w-h-w (w = wholenote, h = halfnote)
Basically Minor chords consist the root, the flat-third and the fifth note. if you have an A minor chord, that would be A as the first note (root), C as the flat-third note(
♭3rd), and E as the fifth note.
 |
| A (root), C(♭3rd), and E (5th) |
so, what you have to do next to get B minor chords is write down the B natural minor scale which is
B(1) - C#(2) -
D(♭3) - E(4) -
F#(5) - G(
♭6) - A(
♭7) - B, see the bold font, and you'll get
B(1) -
D(♭3) -
F#(5) as your B natural minor chord
 |
| B(root), D(♭3rd), and F#(5th) |
the rest chords are easy as long as you hold the natural minor scale as your guidance
 |
| C(root), D#(♭3rd), and G(5th) |
 |
| D(root), F(♭3rd), and A(5th) |
 |
| E(root), G(♭3rd), and B(5th) |
 |
| F(root), G#(♭3rd), and C(5th) |
 |
| G(root), A#(♭3rd), and D5th) |
easy isn't it? hahaha
i hope it helps, happy new year everyone!
