Open chord

Okay kiddo, have you ever seen someone playing the guitar and just using their fingers without pressing any of the strings down with another finger or placing their finger on a metal bar on the guitar that changes the pitch of the sound? Well, that is called an "open chord".

An open chord is like creating a musical sound by just pressing some strings, and not others, without using any fingers or metal bars on the guitar. It's like creating a special sound with the guitar strings in a very simple way.

Basically, when you play an open chord on the guitar, you're playing some strings without stopping them with your fingers, but you still get a nice, musical sound out of them. It's like magic! But it's actually just science: the strings vibrate and produce a sound that you can hear.

So, if you ever want to learn how to play guitar, try starting with the open chords first! It's a good way to get familiar with the guitar and how it works.
