How to Play Power Chords (G, C, D) | Beginner Guitar Tips

Power Chords are great for playing pop, rock, and more on the acoustic guitar. They use only three strings and have a big, open sound. A power chord contains the root and 5th of a chord—leaving out the 3rd means that it is neither major or minor. This allows for many different types of scales and melodies to work over them. Nicholas Veinoglou demonstrates how to play power chords—and how once you master the basic shape you can play it anywhere on the guitar neck.
