Context

How To Use This Page

Overview

Dominant 7 feels tense, bluesy and ready to resolve and works for blues progressions, funk rhythm, turnarounds and rootsy rock.

Lefty Translation

The mirrored chart keeps the bass note on the correct side for lefty rhythm players who want to connect groove and harmony quickly.

Grip Cue

Mute deliberately with the picking hand because dominant shapes often invite extra noise from open strings

Tuning Context

Half Step Down feels familiar but slightly darker and looser. It keeps your lefty chart recognition intact while changing the feel under both hands.
