Tennessee whiskey is a type of distilled spirit that must fulfill rigorous specifications. Produced exclusively within Tennessee and produced according to the “Lincoln County Process”, Tennessee whiskey must pass rigorous quality assurance measures before entering production.
Filtration through maple charcoal helps mellow and develop its signature sweet flavours in whiskey.
A Major
Chris Stapleton’s acoustic version of Tennessee Whiskey features two chords – A Major and B Minor. The A major chord can be constructed using root, major 3rd, perfect fifth (1 – 3 – 5). An important distinction with major chords is that they may replace one third with an eighth; this technique is known as sus chord (suspended chord), with notation such as “Asus2”.
A triad’s major or minor status is determined by its interval between root and major third. Simply stated, major chords create a happy feeling while minor ones cause sadness. Other chord types include less popular 6th chords such as maj9/6add9 as well as 6th triads constructed by adding major sixths onto existing triads – or replacing perfect fifths with diminished or augmented fifths to alter its sound altogether.
B Minor
B minor is an excellent chord to add tension and melancholy or tension into any musical piece. Its use also often gives listeners a feeling of melancholy or tension.
This version of the B minor chord is easier than most as you only need to fret the bottom two strings. At first you may experience buzzing; this should go away over time as your fingers get stronger.
This chord is the basis for a minor triad, consisting of its root note, minor third note, and perfect fifth tone. Like all minor triads, this one can also be moved up two frets to create C#m chord.
E Major
E major triad is an essential step on the journey towards advanced guitar techniques, offering beginners a familiar chord to begin their learning experience. Its simplicity enables it to express a wide variety of emotions while adding depth and dimension to musical pieces.
This chord can be heard throughout the song and in several acoustic guitar solos, as it’s easily played using fingers alone. Be wary not to overstrain them! Commit yourself to practicing it every other day – just don’t forget to rest between sessions!
This chord should be an invaluable asset to anyone hoping to play country music, as it’s so prevalent throughout this genre. Classic examples include Patsy Cline’s “I Fall to Pieces” and Reba McEntire’s “In the Midnight Hour.” Additionally, modern country artists like Chris Stapleton and Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats use this chord successfully in both ballads and uptempo songs – perfect for beginners learning a guitar!
D Major
A key chord shape, D major is an indispensable tool for any guitarist. It has been featured prominently in many songs by U2 (“Desire”), Demi Lovato (“Let It Go”), and John Denver’s (“Over the Hills and Far Away”).
Building chords from any scale involves stacking thirds for every note in the scale to form triads. This process also applies to the D major scale with seven root chords plus adding in seventh notes for dominant or minor 7th chords.
Root position D chords can be played using fingers 1-3. Common variations for root position D chords include muting the lower strings (often accomplished by placing your thumb behind your neck) or using other fingering techniques based on context, progression, voicing or key. Make sure that your fingers remain relaxed! Practice with a metronome for consistent rhythmic patterns which will develop both finger strength and dexterity simultaneously.
