Introducing

Chords on Command

by Jared Borkowski

The ultimate and most practical way to learn guitar chord theory and map out the fretboard

Guitar theory is so often taught without an exciting goal, a clear end-point, or a specific skill you can walk away with feeling good about. Not this time.

No more Googling. No more guessing.

Chords on Command is a complete program for learning how to analyze or create any possible chord on the guitar, from scratch, anywhere on the fretboard.

It's guitar theory with an exciting and practical purpose that anyone can learn.

Crack the code to chords. All of them.

Identify or create any chord:

You'll be able to identify, or design from scratch, literally any chord, anywhere on the guitar, no matter how advanced or complicated

No more looking up chord shapes:

You'll never have to look up how to play any chord ever again

Understand complex chord labels:

You'll know all the proper naming and labeling conventions for all chords, simple or complicated

Be an asset to other musicians:

If a friend or bandmate asks you what any chord is you'll know the answer or be able to figure it out quickly
