However, if you need a refresher on R&B chords, this is the perfect video for you. I cover 2 chords that will help you play most R&B songs, and I give a couple of examples of how to use them.

My 1st barred chords I used with this method was Fine China by Chris Brown. Very fun to play. 1st major 7th ever was Dmaj7 in the 2nd fret because it's the easiest chord ever to me
Great lesson! Can you tell me what kind of strings you’re using?
"You Remind Me" by Usher and I thought I heard a little bit of "No Scrubs" by TLC. Great lesson Kerry!
Always love how you break it down. So helpful and inspiring. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
I tell a major 7th chord as soon as I hear it on a record, cos it has that lovely dreamy quality about it. Takes you to another world. A world of peace and bliss. I love 70's funk, soul music. It was just magical.
Nice instructional material. Your delivery of the material comes across, to me, as laid back,
and aptly applicable to candid grooves.
As always, your approach to how to show fingering is THE BEST!
Video is helpful. For future are you possibly able to have a mini box recording your strumming hand? So I can see how your strumming with each chord.
The Isley Brothers Living For The Love Of You. I would really like to know what those chards are. Beautiful Tune !
Now I got to get back into plane acoustic guitar I miss it

Hey Kerry, after watching your videos for some time I was able to make a few songs of my own. They're on my channel. Thank you for the help.
Yo the best man…now I understand!! ❤❤❤
I think I for the most part came to this conclusion a few months ago... Thank you for making sense of this... I have one hole in what I've been doing, Major 7s rooted on the E string... As always, greatfull to you for sharing your gift...
Glad it was helpful!

Nice tips !
What’s your guitare 🎸 ???

Thanks Kerry
What strings are you using, please? They really stand out!
Great question
I love those shapes🔥
Good information, thanks for sharing 😊
My pleasure
Very good!
In a video can you teach using a pick or using fingers watch major 7 or minor 7 chords
🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
What is the name of that song that you play near the end?
Too late..
Bill withers ‘ Ain’t no sunshine “
Good advice, what strings you runnin on that Taylor ?
“If I Ain’t Got You” for sure uses major 7 and minor 7 chords.
Kerry you showed the Chord shapes, but what was the progression you played. Can you reply back or pin that info to the video
what a unique strings you using?
What strings are those?
How do you strengthen your fingers to get them to ring out
There are a several exercises you can do. One is to play every one across the fretboard on each string. Use a metronome. If you need more personalized help, join me at my weekly beginner's sessions in Kerry's Kamp.

My question is are Major 7 an minor 7 cord bar cords? Do I strum all the cords down?
Yes, all are bar chords you strum, however not all strings are used in every barchord shape when you strum. Example...on the first major 7 he shows (with root on the A string) you skip the low E and do not strike it at all, beginning the strum on the A string and on the second major 7 he shows (with root on the E string) you use your pointer finger to mute the A string and just strum through all 6 strings
Yes. If root is on the 5th string, you don't play the 6th string. With the root on the 6th string, you skip a string for the Major 7. It takes a bit of practice to get it.
