What is a Chord Grid?
A chord grid is a visual representation of a chord on the guitar fretboard. It's like a snapshot of your guitar neck from a bird's-eye view.
Breaking Down the Grid:
Vertical Lines: These represent the strings, with the leftmost line being the low E string.
Horizontal Lines: These represent the frets.
Circles: These indicate where to place your fingers. The numbers inside the circles tell you which finger you should be using. Check out the diagram below!
