Major Triads on the Top Three Strings, Part 1: Inversions and the Key of C
 
In this lesson, you’ll learn to find triads on the top three strings of the guitar. You’ll start with root position, with the root on the bottom, and then learn about the two inversions: first inversion (with the third on the bottom) and second inversion (fifth on the bottom), and how to find their shapes in the key of C. These voicings are all “close-voiced” chords, which means that the notes of the chord are all as close as they can be to each other.
