Music Theory Course Roadmap
For Music Theory to make sense, it's really important that you can connect it to things you've already seen, heard or used. That's why it's super useful to start with Guitar Chord Bootcamp: Open Chords, which will teach you a bunch of different chord types, such as dominant, major seven and minor seven. That's the perfect preparation for Music Theory from Scratch, which builds your music theory knowledge from the ground up. Guitar Chord Bootcamp: Barre and Beyond will teach you some more exotic chord types too, like diminished and half-diminished and how to play them all over the neck.
