Perfect 4ths tuning

Added 'perfect 4ths' alternate tuning. Check it out by changing your preferred tuning in the top-right of the screen. Once this is changed, be sure to search for chord charts, or chord chart collections to see how things look in this new tuning!

Improved scale name search

We've made a small change that allows you to search for major scales by only supplying the note name - a search for "C" now returns results like Scale and Chord Chart Collections, just as if you had searched for "C major".

• Example search for 'C'

Happy New Year!

Added the minor-major 7 chord type.

Beyond this, the bigger work in this release is some behind the scenes bugfixes and groundwork for bigger things to come. Stay tuned!

Chord Chart Collections

We've added collections of chort charts that can be printed for easy practicing. There are collections available for triads and extended chords for each scale. As with everything else, these will honor your selected tuning and select the appropriate charts and fingerings to match.

Search for a scale name or try one of the links below to check this out!

• A Minor Triads
• C# Phrygian b4 Extended Chords

Alternate tunings!

For now we have a few well-known tunings supported, but we plan to add support for arbitrary tunings soon. Check the top-right of your screen to see what the tuning is currently set to, or to change the tuning. All searches and pages that care about tuning will automatically adjust to apply to the tuning you've selected.

New look on the chord chart detail pages.

We've made some changes to the styling and layout on a few pages, specifically on the guitar chord chart detail pages. These changes should make it easier to see what's important and find related resources.

Added recommended fingering details to guitar chord charts.

As long as we're able to find a fingering, we now show where to place each finger on chord charts. If we find more than one way to play a particular chord chart, we also list these other - usually more difficult - variations on the chart detail page.

New difficulty metric for chord charts.

This is based on the new algorithm described in the previous update, and is used in many places throught the site. The most noticable is in the ranking of chord charts - difficulty, along with number of strings played and position on the neck - are used used to select the first chart to show in search results.

This update should make for a more well rounded selection sorting of results and produce less edge cases of hard-to-play charts showing high in the list.

Filtering of chord charts that are unplayable from search results.

This is accomplished with a new algorithm we have to determine possible ways to play each chord chart (where to place each finger). Our first use of this algorithm is this filtering, but future uses of this will be to show alternatives of where fingers should be placed on the chord charts, as well as updating our chart difficulty metric to be more accurate.
