Hey guys, today we are going to talk about Latin chord progression on acoustic guitar.

If you are looking into expanding on chord shapes using altered and extended chords, you should learn the Latin chord progression I am about to show you.

The chord progression we are checking out today is in C# minor and features chords that you might not know. Chords such as:

• 7thb13 – Dominant 7th with the flat 13th.
• Maj7#11 – Major 7th chords with the #11th.
• 7#9 – A dominant 7th chord with the sharp 9th.

There are a few things I want you to notice about this chord progression.

• If you listen to the example played at the beginning of the tutorial, you will notice how each chord is immediately deadened by the right hand. This approach, also called “detached,” makes the music groovy and simplify the chord changes.
• Each chord has different voicing shapes. By changing the singing note of the chord, we create the harmonic movement that makes this chord progression so interesting.

A great lesson for intermediate guitar players.
