Each
chord chart has three sets of numbers listed vertically. They
represent the three stings of the balalaika as they would
appear if you were to look at it from the angle displayed in
the picture to the left. Each number represents the number of
the fret on which the string is pressed down.
In
the first column shown for the C Major chord, the 3 displayed
for the first string means that the first string is pressed
down on the 3rd fret. The 0 shown for the 2nd string means
that no fret is pressed for that string. The 3 for the 3rd
string means that the third string is pressed down on at the
third fret. |
