Drop 2 Type Voicings

It is no doubt that Voicing could be the most popular technique to instantly create a "weird but nice" chord. By only "change position" of a note from chord, we could enter new dimension of sound. So, let's talk about Voicing, specially the champion... Drop 2 voicing

By dropping the second note from the top of a four-way close voicing down an octave, a larger sounding voicing (referred to as “drop 2”) is produced. These drop 2 voicings in turn produce a chord physically more accesibble on the guitar than some of the orginal four-way close voicings.
Lets explore all four inversions of the drop 2 type voicings and their pplacement on the middle four strings of the guitar (2, 3, 4, 5).

C Maj = C E G B ( R 3 5 7)



The Following maj7th chord forms are produced by the above voicings on the middle four strings of the guitar: ( strings vertically/ frets horizontal)


The above form ca be trasposed or moved to different keys
