*This is Part 1 of 3 for this discussion on Suspended*

Continuing to cover the fretboard with triads, today's flavor is Suspended. We'll go over the shapes with our normal practice strategies, covering a variety of suspended type chords (*cough that also happen to all be inversions of each other cough cough*). After we go over the fundamentals we will hit some Power Ups featuring these unique sounds.

Stay tuned for Part 2 where we will get into using these sounds in a bunch of fun musical ways!

Video is long, use the Youtube chapters to navigate:

1 - Basics, labeling the shapes
2 - Practice Strategies
3 - Power Ups
