C Standard left-handed chord chart
Csus2 Left-Handed Guitar Chord Chart
Sus2 chord voicings, mirrored lefty grip charts and standard tab references in C Standard.
Csus2 uses the notes C, D, G 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 shapes can be visually deceptive in right-handed charts because the intervals look so open; the mirrored lefty version solves that quickly.
