DADGAD left-handed chord chart
Daug Left-Handed Guitar Chord Chart
Augmented chord voicings, mirrored lefty grip charts and standard tab references in DADGAD.
Daug uses the notes D, F#, A# and is shown here as a mirrored left-handed chord chart. DADGAD encourages drones and modal movement, which makes mirrored left-handed charts especially useful because familiar standard shapes stop behaving normally. Augmented shapes are easy to misread on standard diagrams, so the left-handed chart is doing real translation work here.

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