The Guitar Chord Library
SmartScore’s Guitar Chord Library contains several hundred chord and fretboard configurations. You can freely edit both chord name, fingering and fret positions and apply your new configuration to the original chord name or add it to the library as a variant or as a brand new chord name. Selecting a preset chord configuration is done by simply entering its name and extensions.
