Learn Acoustic Guitar Inverted Chords

If you have ever spent some time learning guitar tab, or reading sheet music, you will have come across the concept of inverted guitar chords, also called slash chords. They are chords that have two different names separated by a slash such as D/F#.

When I first started learning acoustic guitar I would just choose whichever of the two guitar chords I found easiest to play, as I thought the notation was just giving me two possible chord shapes. This was not the case.

A normal guitar chord is made up of 3 different notes. The root note of the chord will usually be the lowest note. Sometimes though the root note will not be the lowest note. One of the other two notes of the chord will be. This is what we call an inverted guitar chord.
