Power Chords

Power chords are usually played with a distorted electric guitar in hard rock, heavy metal and punk.

The same chord can either be 2 notes or 3 notes.  The 3 note version makes the power chords sound fuller by repeating the root note an octave higher.

The root of a power chord is also like in barre chords but is not limited to the 6th and 5th string only. In this case the lower sounding note becomes the root. They are written as 5th chords (e.g. E5, G5, F5 etc)
