Learn to Play the A7 Guitar Chord

The A major seventh chord is commonly shown as the A7 guitar chord. It's pronounced "A seventh". The A7 chord uses the five highest strings.

A7 guitar chordNotice in the diagram the A7 is played like an A chord, without using your second finger.

Play an A7 chord like an A, without using your second finger, switch between A and A7, until you have it memorized, and both chords sound clear.

Next switch between the D and A7 chord, then between the E chord and A7.

When you play an A7, don't form it by forming an A chord, then lifting your finger out. Instead form the A7 chord directly, using only your first and third fingers.

After you have A7 well learned, practice switching between all the chords you've learned .

Remember, when you find a weak area, spend more time practicing those changes. You want to switch between all the chords easily!

The next chord is just as simple to learn, the E major seventh chord.
