- In this video, you learn all about secondary dominant chords on guitar.
Secondary dominants are a great addition to the dominant 7 chords you usually see in major keys and will help you greatly in writing better, more interesting chord progressions.
In this lesson, you learn about common secondary dominants used within a major key.
These chords contain non-diatonic tones, meaning notes that don’t belong to the key, and is why they are usually obvious to your ear when they appear in songs, as they sound more unique.
You will learn several chord progressions and songs that use secondary dominants and how to use these in your guitar playing.
Secondary dominants are one of those concepts you learn that totally change how you perceive, play, and write chord progressions on guitar.
They are a game changer!

Really cool lesson, the sequence with the f#dim ( I think that's you called it ) was super but the range of illustrations helped me to see what you were getting at. Thanks, really appreciate your lessons, this one was excellent, thanks.
Not only are the videos and illustrations always great, the sound clips under the tabs that so many lessons have, make the the tabs so much easier to quickly digest. We appreciate the effort that you put in to this Simon!
@@mason87104 you are most welcome :)
@@yunowot you are welcome. The example you speak of, with the diminished chord, is the progression to a tune called "Nobody Knows You When You Are Down And Out". Clapton does a great version on his unplugged album.
So unique method of imparting guitar theory and knowledge. Very appreciative of sharing your time and talent.
You are very welcome! I am glad you enjoyed the video :)
This is a lesson I've been looking for. Thanks
Great to hear Ri-Khasi! You are very welcome :)
Lenny Bernstein's great lecture in which he said moving fifth to fifth... etc., is the driving force of music. Big idea for self taught guy like me. HOWEVER.. .. he didn't say anything about using fifths before a chord you resolve to. This fact is of the utmost importance to me. I don't think when I looked up years back what secondary chords were, they even hinted at this usage. This is important thanks ps I mean Lenny didn't speak of anything except 5 to 1 of key
You are very welcome Vinson! Yes, secondary dominants are great and so useful for one's playing :)
Excellent video
Glad you think so Michael :)
Simon, you are an excellent guitar and theory instructor. You have a beautiful teaching style, I appreciate your lessons! Thank you.
You are very welcome boulderdesigner :) I appreciate the kind words very much and glad you find my teaching style useful and helpful :)
Great video Simon. When ever a chord jumps out at me and makes me think that sounded extra nice, its usually a secondary dominant. A favorite example for me is The Hook, by Blues Traveler, which has a III chord 'resolving' up a half step to a IV chord, rather than the usual resolution down a fifth. Hendrix's song Bold as Love also uses this III to IV cadence.
Hi Jeff! Thanks for sharing :)
