In this video, you learn what suspended chords are and how to use them in your guitar playing.

I present to you a typical chord progression and show you how to dress it up using suspended chords.

We will look at the suspended 2 and suspended 4 chords. To play these chords you only have to add or take away a finger from a shape that will already be familiar to you.

Suspended chords create movement within a chord progression without there actually being a chord change. It’s all about creating tension with the suspension and then releasing that tension by resolving back into the chord you are suspending.

In this lesson, I show you suspended chords in both a strumming context as well as picking the notes of the chords separately for a really cool and sophisticated sound.
