FAQs.
Q: Are the chords in
this guide based on theoretical chord knowledge
alone, rather than actual 'hands on' experience?
A:
Absolutely NOT, every chord in the Chord Bible
has been created with an actual instrument on
hand to check for voicing, fingering and
average hand/finger span.
Q: Will I need all the
chords in this guide?
A: Probably
not, but the whole ethos behind these guides is
to provide a complete chord solution for the
musician wanting to pick up virtually any
songbook in the certain knowledge that he/she
will find that elusive chord in the Chord Bible,
from basic majors and minors up to exotic
extended thirteenths.

The Waldzither Chord Bible be suitable for me?
A: Yes, it
has a well balanced selection of easy to play
chords, along with more advanced shapes for
experienced musicians.
Q: Do you do a Chord Bible
for any other members of the cittern family of
instruments?
A: Yes, we also publish titles for the cittern (longscale and shortscale tunings), laud, Greek bouzouki, (tenor) mandola, octave mandolin, mandocello, mandolin, Irish bouzouki (GDAD and GDAE tunings) and Portuguese guitar (Coimbra and Lisboa tunings).
Q: Will this Chord Bible
help me play from any songbook?
A: Yes. You'll be
able to pick up virtually any artist or

It really is as easy as that!
