This first examples of chord conversion are going
to be pretty straight forward. We are going to take an A major
chord and convert it to an Am, A+ (augmented), Ao (diminished),
Asus2, and Asus4 chord.
Converting
A to Am
Converting A to Am is easy enough. An A chord is
A(1), C (3),
and E(5). Just lower the C(3)
on the 2nd string down a half step to C( 3).
