C Standard left-handed chord chart
C#m7b5 Left-Handed Guitar Chord Chart
Minor 7 Flat 5 chord voicings, mirrored lefty grip charts and standard tab references in C Standard.
C#m7b5 uses the notes C#, E, G, B and is shown here as a mirrored left-handed chord chart. C Standard lowers the whole guitar while keeping interval relationships intact, which is useful for heavy left-handed players who still want logical mirrored charts. These are exactly the shapes that become frustrating in right-handed chord books, so the mirrored left-handed chart is part of the lesson, not just the design.

Chord boxes are mirrored for left-handed guitar. Tab and low-to-high shape notation remain standard so common lessons still translate.

Context
How To Use This Page
Minor 7 Flat 5 feels shadowy, unstable and jazzy and works for minor ii-V movement, dark colour and sophisticated passing harmony.
These are exactly the shapes that become frustrating in right-handed chord books, so the mirrored left-handed chart is part of the lesson, not just the design.
Keep the fretting wrist loose and build the shape from the root outward so the b5 stays accurate
C Standard feels low, thick and heavy without dropping interval logic. It keeps the same shape logic while delivering a heavier voice.
