→Writing Inversions
=== Writing Inversions ===
The most common way to see inversions written for guitar is the name of the chord, then "/bass note". So for example, C Major 1st Inversion is written C/E. A Minor 2nd Inversion is written Am/E.
In more traditional sheet music, you often see a pair of numbers with one on top of the other indicating the intervals of the notes above the bass note.

! Root Position !! 1st Inversion !! 2nd Inversion

| 3 || 3 || 4

Note: when we cover chords with 4 or more notes, the number of numbers here will expand for those additional intervals.
