Open G left-handed chord chart
G#m7b5 Left-Handed Guitar Chord Chart
Minor 7 Flat 5 chord voicings, mirrored lefty grip charts and standard tab references in Open G.
G#m7b5 uses the notes G#, B, D, F# 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 are exactly the shapes that become frustrating in right-handed chord books, so the mirrored left-handed chart is part of the lesson, not just the design.

How To Use This Page

These are exactly the shapes that become frustrating in right-handed chord books, so the mirrored left-handed chart is part of the lesson, not just the design.
Keep the fretting wrist loose and build the shape from the root outward so the b5 stays accurate
Open G feels rootsy, slide-friendly and chord-rich. It makes partial chords, droning harmonies and slide-friendly shapes easier to hear quickly.
