Overall Rating: 4.6 (of 5) Introduction To Inversions What is an
inversion? Well, alot of the chords that guitarists learn early
on are in ROOT POSITION. This means that the lowest tone being
played (the bass note) is the ROOT of the chord. The other chord
members, or tones that make up the rest of the chord, are
stacked and doubled above the root. The words ABOVE and BELOW
refer to pitch, or how high or low the note is. An inversion is
a chord whose bass note is another chord member besides the
root. We will deal with the standard inversions first, with a
small explanation of chord construction, and then check out some
other nice bass options for chords.
