Open C 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 Open C.
C#m7b5 uses the notes C#, E, G, B and is shown here as a mirrored left-handed chord chart. Open C gives the guitar a large low register and a broad major framework, which is ideal for cinematic left-handed accompaniment and layered rhythm parts. 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.
