About Chord Muse

A side project for exploring the guitar visually.

It started with my kids getting interested in music.

I thought I would learn to play guitar myself, so I could help teach them. As I started learning, I quickly realized just how much there was to understand, chords, notes, scales, intervals, patterns, and on top of all that, alternate tunings.

I found myself wanting to see those relationships rather than simply memorize them. So I started building little visual aids to help me understand what I was learning.


How it evolved

Those little experiments eventually became Chord Muse.

What started as a way for me to make sense of the fretboard grew into a collection of tools for exploring chords, scales, notes, and patterns visually.

The idea is pretty simple: sometimes seeing how things connect makes them easier to understand.


Built for fun

Chord Muse is still just a side project.

There isn't a big company behind it or a grand business plan. I build it because I enjoy guitars, music, and making things.

I work on it when I have the time, following ideas that seem interesting or useful. Some things are polished, some things are still evolving, and that's part of the fun.


If Chord Muse helps you see the guitar a little differently, that's the point.

Thanks for stopping by.
