3-note

This is a short guitar study that combines various chord voicings and melodic patterns based on the F major scale. This study includes a short video demonstration as well as a free (or give what you want) downloadable PDF guide for reference and practice.

This lesson provides a short guitar exercise that will expand your theoretical notions and fretboard knowledges. The principle being to harmonize the C major scale with 3-note chords also referred to as shell voicings while inserting short lines (from the major scale) between each chord.

Shell chords are simplified jazz guitar chords built with the root, 3rd, and 7th. These shell voicings are essential for jazz comping because they make chord progressions easier to play while clearly outlining harmony
