Open chords poster
The most common open chords, at a glance. Print this page to hang it on the wall.
This poster gathers the most common open chords on a single page, built for printing rather than on-screen reading: a wall, a lesson folder, or a music stand next to the guitar. It's for anyone who wants a paper reference they can check without waking up a screen, or a teacher who wants a simple handout for a student. The diagrams are the same precomputed vector drawings used everywhere else on the site, laid out to fit a standard sheet.
How to use it
The print button triggers your browser's standard print dialog: that's where you pick the paper size (A4 or A3) and check the preview before printing. The layout automatically switches to print mode — the site's navigation elements disappear, leaving only the diagrams visible.
Practical tips and common mistakes
- Always check the preview before printing: some browsers scale down by default, which can shrink the diagrams or spill them onto a second page.
- This poster only covers open chords: for barre chords or power chords, the full chord library stays filterable by type.
- A wall poster works better as a memory jog than as an active learning tool: it doesn't replace actually replaying each chord regularly, hands on the neck.
- If a chord you expected is missing from the printout, it's probably filed as barre or power chord in the catalogue rather than open — the full library will still show it.
