Stop feeling like there’s only one place to play a chord.
The CAGED system gives you a simple way to find and connect major and minor chords across the entire guitar neck. Instead of being stuck with open chords and a handful of barre chords, you’ll learn five connected shapes that let you play the same chord in different positions.
£15. One payment. Lifetime access.
If you know a C chord, a G chord or an A minor chord, you already know more of the CAGED system than you might realise.
This course takes those familiar chord shapes and shows you how to move them around the neck, connect them together and actually use them in your playing.
By the end, you won’t just know a collection of new chord shapes — you’ll understand how they fit together.
The major and minor CAGED chord shapes
How the C, A, G, E and D shapes work
How to find the same chord in five different areas of the fretboard
How the shapes connect as you move up and down the neck
How to find smaller, more usable chords inside the full shapes
How to turn CAGED shapes into guitar parts
How to use the system in different keys
How to apply CAGED to real songs
How to choose chord positions that keep your playing in one area of the neck
You’ll also get the chord diagrams, worksheets and course handouts to keep beside you while you practice.
There’s no need to memorise everything immediately. Work through the lessons, use the downloads and keep coming back to the shapes until navigating them starts to become automatic.
The real goal of this course isn’t to memorise the word CAGED.
It’s to be able to see a chord such as G, C, D or A minor and know that you have options. You can play it down low, move it further up the neck, find a smaller version or choose a position that works better for the song.
