What is the CAGED system ?! |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
Furthermore each shape leads right into the next shape, for eg notice the 2nd, 3rd and 4th string of the Major "A" shaped is exactly the same as that of "G" shaped. |
|
|
CAGED system is a way of navigating the fretboard by visualizing the 5 chord shapes C, A, G, E and D when played on open strings. The shapes looked like the following: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
MAJOR |
|
|
|
MINOR |
|
|
|
|
DOMINANT |
