How to Play the Hendrix Chord - Blues Rock Guitar Lesson w/ Tabs!

Hello friends,

Welcome back to Swiftlessons for another blues-rock guitar lesson. In today’s session we’ll be studying the playing technique and theory behind the Dom7♯9 (no 5) chord, better known as “The Hendrix Chord.” Once you have this advanced shape mastered, we’ll put it to work in a bluesy practice routine in the key of E. Let’s get started!

Thanks Rob. Great example. Is really brilliant.

In blues rock, the Hendrix chord (AKA Dom7#9) it's generally used as the 1, but also the 5 chord occasionally. You'll notice in Pink Floyd's "Breath," Gilmour places it along side a dom7b9 chord to get back to the 1. Brilliant!

Hi Rob, super lesson, do you use the Hendrix chord mainly as a 1? with a 3 and 4? Or with other chords?

Hi Rob do you have GP file for this one ? Much appreciated

Hi Rob! Beautiful rendition of "Leaving' on a Jet Plane". May I ask you what audio equipment you use in order to get such crystal clear sound (microphone, etc.)? I meet with a guitar group on Zoom, weekly, and my sound sometimes goes in and out. I have tried a Tonor USB microphone (plugged into my Mac) and just using my Mac's audio, but still having problems. Thank you for any advice you may have. -Linda Stone

Job well done,thanks!

Great thanks a lot Rob ;)

I’m not seeing it either, must have failed to attach. I’ll reupload it now.

Awesome lesson Rob ! Can't see the PDF link, am I missing something? Thanks ;)

Great lesson... I only signed up last month but can see your program will help me get to the next level.

Ok Rob, love it but where's your 63 Stratocaster? Ha!

great practice fun!

Thanks Rob... great lesson. My instructor & I were improvising “Hey Joe” and this chord was perfect right before the “walk up”. Plus you added some spice I will use at the next lesson. Your lessons are very well done and informative. Keep up the good work.
