How Many Guitar Chords Are There?
Do you ever have a taught exactly how many chords are possible in standard tuning? Or even how many chords are there in the spectrum of the musical universe? We will try to answer this question with the maths. If we will use 12-note chromatic scale, We will get the combinations as below:

1 note = 12 ways (But this is not Chord) 2 notes = 66 (This is also not a chord) 3 notes = 220 ways 4 notes = 495 ways 5 notes = 792 ways 6 notes = 924 ways 7 notes = 792 ways 8 notes = 495 ways 9 notes = 220 ways 10 notes = 66 ways 11 notes = 12 ways 12 notes = 1 ways

Total Chords Possibility = 4017 ways But, Total playable Guitar Chords are: 2341

 

By definition, a chord is just 2 or more notes being played together. But don’t worry we not need all such chords to become professional guitarist. You can start learning following chords in order.

However, if you’re talking about just normal chords – here are the chords that do not require a Barr to be played.

A, Am, C, D, Dm, E, Em, G

Many other chords can be played with modifing the Barr (so you don’t actually need to play the chord with your while index finger laying across a fret).

These chords are:

F, B, C#m, F#m, G#m

If you learn all these chords, you’ll be in great shape as a guitarist. Keep in mind, none of these are “7” chords. You can almost immediately increase the amount of chords you know just by adding the 7th to a given chord. I would learn these 7th chords:

A7, CM7, D7, DM7, Dm7, E7, Em7, FM7, G7

The “M7” means major 7th. The “m7” means minor 7th. The 7 immediately following a note name means a “Major-minor 7th” – or, for simplicity sake – a “7th”.
