LESSON DESCRIPTION:
If you're like me, then every time you hear drop 2 or drop 3 you think, "wait, which one's are those again?"
The logic of why these chords are called "drop" voicings isn't clear on the fretboard like it is on the piano.
No matter how many times I refreshed myself on which shapes on the guitar were drop 2 or 3, it never really stuck.
UNTIL I started using this simple trick.
In this video I'll explain what drop voicings mean from a guitar fretboard perspective.
And I'll show you an easy trick for how to tell if any 7th chord is a drop voicing.
I hope you find that it cracks the code on what drop voicings mean once and for all.

This was the best video clarification of drop 2&3 chords that I have watched on “CZcams”. Your lessons are always well explained, thanks Jared.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks, Stuart :) ~~ Jared
Best explanation ever. Thank you!
Great, thanks step by step you let the keys to learn TKS
Hi Jared - thanks mate. Makes perfect sense
Great lesson. Thanks for clarifying.
You are welcome! Cheers -Jared
Thank you for these great lessons.
My pleasure!
lucid video on a difficult subject thank you very much
You're very welcome!
Thanks so much for the detailed explanation and construction roadmap. I've been trying to get my head around this. The missing piece was translating the initial shapes into the commonly used shapes. Other instructions have skipped the very useful step :-)
Glad this helped clear things up! Thanks! :) -Jared
I must admit it was all quite fast and I haven't understood first time. Might take a few listens.
I look forward to getting to my guitar to try this out
Right on, Ted! Enjoy :)
It helps a lots
Thanks
Right on! Glad to hear that, thanks :)
Thanks Jared 👍🏼
Cheers, Lovat! :)
cool explaination for finding inversions, just a question though, what is the amazing fretboard tool you are using, as a teacher I find this would be so useful to have
are drop voicings the same as inversions?
Another way I look at these voicing are they are the Open voiced 7th Chords.
You could probably find voicings/inversions by playing the full arpeggios and connecting them right? Ok there’s the flat 7th, I want that in the bass and there’s the flat 3.
100% yes! :)
@@soundguitar I was doing that with minor 6 and finding half diminished voicings. Pretty cool stuff once you see how easy it is. Initially hearing that minor 6 and half diminished are essentially the same chord with different functions, it’s confusing. Once you find it, it’s obvious.
@@markgoodwin5306 Awesome! I love those self discovery moments. No better way to learn. Nice work :)
@@soundguitar I started this book too called This Is Your Brian On Music written by a neuroscientist. This one section talks about your brain filling in gaps. When I was reading that, I started thinking about rootless voicings. Ohhh, I gotcha.
@@markgoodwin5306 Awesome! I love that book. Read it a long time ago. I'd love to revisit it. I remember it being very good.
driffend between drop voiceing and slash chords
Definitely a difference - drop voicings can be in root position - slash chords mean that something other than the root is the lowest note ** j
Drop voicings are a completely new concept to me. Are the terms "dropped" and "inversion" interchangeable when describing different shapes of the same chord on guitar?
Also coyld you recommend an app on android that is essentially the same as your displayed fretboard (ideally with the possibility for fretboard notes or at least the ability to mark placed notes with their interval number)?
I would love to be able to work this out as you have away from a guitar without getting lost as to which note is which interval as I move notes around for different voicings.nIt would really help as exercises for my theory.
I only just discovered your channel from your chord extensions video but I have already downloaded the charts and can see you will become my new regular youtube guitar teacher. Thank you! 😊
Hi Tommi. Good questions! Thanks for asking. "Drop" and "inversion" are not interchangeable. Here are two lessons on inversions that you might find helpful: czcams.com/video/xIwjyUOpiHE/video.html. And an earlier one: czcams.com/video/sYdPl43BZ80/video.html.
I don't know of an android app, but what I was using was just a website that should be usable on any mobile devise. Here's a video review I did about it: czcams.com/video/6rU9rUYnj7U/video.html.
Thanks, Tommi!

Why u didn't mention anything about positions? I dont understand; you only covered position 1 : C E G B > G C E B what about 2nd and 3rd following : C G B E > B C G E, C B E G > E C B G ? It confuses me...
In your theory first inversion and third cannot be used in in the same context (as a chord) in progression, they are technically different chordes than no inversion and second... That's why voicings have positions as I described above.
To make it short, in DROP 2 technique inversions are only made in upper structure of the chord, otherwise one abstract different chords with different function which doesn't perform the same action in realised linear harmonic progression
its just a stupid term to use on guitar, honestly. especially since what you end up doing is really "raising the 2nd note in the chord an octave"... i always thought of "drop 2" meaning like physically your dropping the 2nd note towards the floor lol.
