Hello Everyone,
I’m new to The Fretboard and just wanted to let everyone know that I recently published a blog of music theory as it relates to guitar playing (appropriately called “music theory and the guitar”) and thought some of you might find it useful.
The goal of the blog is to provide a frame of reference that will allow students to see the big picture of music so that they can more easily understand where the individual pieces fit.
If anyone is interested, it can be accessed at https://blitzstarguitar.com/blog/ .
Please let me know if you find it helpful. And if you have any questions or anything you want to discuss, I’m here.
Frank

As an aside, a small discovery it prompted just now - new to me but old news to many (of course). It has never particularly occurred to me to finger a 6th chord the way you illustrate but the diagram immediately leapt out as familiar. For me it provided the clearest illustration yet of the very close relationship between a major 6th and the relative minor 7th - the exact same chord, in fact, just a matter of which note we decide to think of as the root.
So there is a nice little gem of learning for me. I will look forward to exploring elsewhere on your site.

What you call the chord depends on the key you are in and the chord's function in the progression.
