This Chromatic Chord Wizard provides tools
for playing various chords on the mountain dulcimer. Two
sections are provided: the first section, Fret Choice,
allows you to input a known chord while the second section,
Chord Finder, allows you to enter 1 to 4 notes of an unknown
chord. Both sections will then display possible fret positions
to play the chord; either partially or completely.
If you are in doubt about using
this Wizard, please take a look at our tutorial -
Wizard Tutorial.
Select the chord you want to play by first selecting the root
note then select a chord type in one of the chord groupings.
Once you have selected a chord, click on Fret Choice
to display the chord fingering possibilities.
Note: If you want
to
select an Extended Chord or Obscure Chord, you must first select
'---' under Major Chords.
