Enter fret positions for any chord shape and generate an instant diagram. Positions go string 6 (low D) → string 1 (high D) matching Open G tuning order.

Enter chord positions

One fret per string, low → high (Open G: D–G–D–G–B–D). Use 0 for open, x for muted.

String 6 (D2 — low)

String 5 (G2)

String 4 (D3)

Common Open G Shapes to Try #

Chord	Str 6	Str 5	Str 4	Str 3	Str 2	Str 1
G major (open)	0	0	0	0	0	0
D major	x	x	0	2	3	2
C major	x	2	2	2	1	x
Barre (any key) — major	5	5	5	5	5	5
Cm	x	x	5	5	4	x
Fm	x	x	3	1	1	x
G major (D-G-B only)	x	x	5	4	3	x
Gmaj7	0	0	0	0	x	x

Tip: In Open G, a one-finger barre across all strings at any fret plays a major chord. The chord at the Nth fret is the note on string 5 (G2) at that fret.
