This section shows the conventional dominant 7th chord shapes commonly used on guitar. These shapes are built from the root, major third, perfect fifth, and minor seventh, giving them their characteristic tension and bluesy sound.

Some of these shapes include open strings and are tied to specific positions, while others are movable. Understanding the shape and its interval structure helps you recognize how dominant 7th chords function and how they connect to other chord types across the fretboard.

These shapes are widely used in blues, rock, jazz, and funk, and form an essential part of rhythm and progression-based playing.
