In this guitar lesson we are continuing our study of the CAGED system chords and we are looking this time at the CAGED system minor 7 chords. I’m going to show you how you can play the minor 7th chord more than 5 different ways using barre chord shapes derived from the CAGED system.

The minor 7 chord is a 4-note chord consisting of a root note (that which names the chord), a minor 3rd, perfect 5th and minor 7th (R-3-5-b7).

Following on from previous guitar lessons in this CAGED chords series, we have a couple of approaches for forming the minor 7th barre chords. You can either use the moveable minor barre chord shapes and add in the minor 7th (which will always be a whole step below the octave root note). Alternatively, you could work from the dominant 7th CAGED barre chord shapes and flatten the third of the chord for the intervals of a minor 7th chord.

I show you each of the moveable CAGED barre chord shapes and then we conclude with a visualisation exercise using a i-v progression in the key of B minor. In major (and therefore minor) keys, all minor chords can be substituted for minor 7th chords. That's what we do here.

Chord charts, tabs and the backing track used in the exercise are available to all members of my Patreon group.
