- Who is the Guitar: Barre Chords poster for?

- When should you use the Guitar: Barre Chords poster?
- Learn where the root is in each shape. The fret you place it on names the chord. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Guitar: Barre Chords belongs on the wall where that music work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
