Beginner guitar: Learning how to play the B chord on guitar is one of the trickier shapes to master on the instrument. Most beginners start by playing open chords (chords in the first four frets with at least one open string), and there’s no easy way to play B.
Perhaps because of that, there aren’t that many guitar classics in the key of B – although Coldplay’s Yellow, AC/DC’s Thunderstruck, Ray Parker Jr.’s Ghostbusters theme, and Guns N' Roses' November Rain prove it has plenty of potential.
