Open D left-handed chord chart

G#aug Left-Handed Guitar Chord Chart

Augmented chord voicings, mirrored lefty grip charts and standard tab references in Open D.

G#aug uses the notes G#, C, E and is shown here as a mirrored left-handed chord chart. Open D spreads a big major sonority across the guitar, which makes both scale mapping and chord design feel more spacious. 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.

Context

How To Use This Page

Overview

Augmented feels bright, unsettled and cinematic and works for passing harmony, theatrical transitions and altered colour.

Lefty Translation

Augmented shapes are easy to misread on standard diagrams, so the left-handed chart is doing real translation work here.

Grip Cue

Keep the voicing compact and use the mirrored box to see the raised fifth clearly

Tuning Context

Open D feels wide, resonant and strong for open voicings. It helps left-handed players connect scale notes to ringing chord fragments.
