Key of D using strings 3 & 5 at the....
DESCENDING
5th fret, AB down = I (D) or the IV of A
5th fret no ped = 7 (C#)
3rd fret no ped = 6 (B
5th fret no ped = 7 (C#)
ASCENDING
5th fret, AB down = I (D) or the IV of A
8th fret no ped = 2 (E)
10th fret no ped = 3 (F#)
8th fret no ped = 2 (E)
I can understand the IV of A is D with AB down but I don't understand how you get 7(C#), 6(B), 2(E) or 3(F).
I'm retired and trying to lean to play for my church group and as you can see I need "HELP".
Thanks |

Dan-Thanks for your input. I guess I have a hard time explaining what I need.
Ex: Bar at 5th fret(A) using strings 3&5 at the same time.
How does this equate to C# 7th of D?
Thanks |

Ah, yes, bad habit of mine(answering question other than the one asked). How about this?
I have put the scale degrees each note represents above and below the musical staff. As you can see there, you get C# (7 in D major) on the third string at the fifth fret with no pedal down. Other scale degrees you asked about are likewise indicated by the numbers above and below the staff.

David, at the 5th fret, you get a C# minor chord when you lower your E's a half tone. So if you added your 4th string to strings 3 & 5 you would get the full triad for C# minor.
The way I remember these minor chord positions (using the E lower lever) is by seeing it as one fret higher than the pedals-down position. C# major is 4th fret AB, so C# minor is 5th fret E lever. This is also true for your other examples. Hope that helps! |
