I used to love moving these chords around and hearing the different sounds they make. I also thought this was the CAGED system. I wasn&#8217;t far wrong, but there&#8217;s much more to it than that&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The term CAGED comes from the open chords of C, A, G, E and D. It&#8217;s these chord shapes and their relative minors and other voicing that we can move up and down the neck to achieve different chords.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Moving the chords around the neck can sound great, but with the inclusion of the open strings as part of the chord these aren&#8217;t always part of the system.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We would use this system when accompanying another guitarists. If the first player plays open chords then the second player can play a CAGED chord to accompany them. This will make the two guitar together have increased harmony and depth.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The chord order of CAGED is NOT an accident.<\/span> This system is fantastic for learning your notes on the fretboard. See <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">4.49<\/span> in the above video for more. Essentially the order of the chords is linked to the next chords bass note. But <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">please watch the video<\/span> for a better understanding of this.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>HOMEWORK:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Play the chords of CAGED in the order explained in the video. So you&#8217;ll be playing the chord of C in 5 different places. The chord of A in 5 different places etc&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"vc_btn3-container vc_btn3-center vc_do_btn\" ><a class=\"vc_general vc_btn3 vc_btn3-size-md vc_btn3-shape-rounded vc_btn3-style-modern vc_btn3-color-black\" href=\"https:\/\/www.learnguitarinlondon.com\/index.php\/intermediate-course-lesson-17\/\" title=\"Lesson 2 \u2013 Naming A Horse \u2013 Beyond Fingerstyle Freedom \u2013 Drue James\">&lt;&lt;&lt; Previous Lesson<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"vc_btn3-container vc_btn3-center vc_do_btn\" ><a class=\"vc_general vc_btn3 vc_btn3-size-md vc_btn3-shape-rounded vc_btn3-style-modern vc_btn3-color-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.learnguitarinlondon.com\/index.php\/intermediate-acoustic-lesson-index\/\" title=\"Lesson 2 \u2013 Naming A Horse \u2013 Beyond Fingerstyle Freedom \u2013 Drue James\">Course Lesson Index<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"vc_btn3-container vc_btn3-center vc_do_btn\" ><a class=\"vc_general vc_btn3 vc_btn3-size-md vc_btn3-shape-rounded vc_btn3-style-modern vc_btn3-color-green\" href=\"https:\/\/www.learnguitarinlondon.com\/index.php\/dynamics-the-intermediate-players-secret-sauce-lesson-19\/\" title=\"\">Go To Lesson 19 &gt;&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p><strong>Course Progress Bar<\/strong><br \/>\n<div class=\"wppb-wrapper inside full\"><div class=\"inside\">90 \/ 100<\/div><div class=\"wppb-progress full\"><span class=\"green\" style=\"width: 90%;\"><span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_raw_code wpb_raw_html wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<script>(function(p,u,s,h){p.botId = \"0UCgS0\";s=u.createElement('script');s.type='text\/javascript';s.id=\"bot-widget-script\";s.src='https:\/\/app.conversiobot.com\/lib\/js\/gadget.js';s.setAttribute('bid',\"0UCgS0\");h=u.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];h.parentNode.insertBefore(s,h);})(window,document);<\/script>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The CAGED System Explained -
