Open G left-handed chord chart

Fsus2 Left-Handed Guitar Chord Chart

Sus2 chord voicings, mirrored lefty grip charts and standard tab references in Open G.

Fsus2 uses the notes F, G, C and is shown here as a mirrored left-handed chord chart. Open G stacks a major chord under the strings, which turns left-handed rhythm and slide ideas into a much more visual game than in standard tuning. These shapes can be visually deceptive in right-handed charts because the intervals look so open; the mirrored lefty version solves that quickly.

Context

How To Use This Page

Overview

Sus2 feels open, modern and airy and works for pop rhythm guitar, drone-based accompaniment and layered acoustic parts.

Lefty Translation

These shapes can be visually deceptive in right-handed charts because the intervals look so open; the mirrored lefty version solves that quickly.

Grip Cue

Listen for the major second against the root and avoid pressing so hard that the voicing sounds stiff

Tuning Context

Open G feels rootsy, slide-friendly and chord-rich. It makes partial chords, droning harmonies and slide-friendly shapes easier to hear quickly.
