Standard Fingering

The standard fingering method uses standard formations of three or four notes, and
lets the experienced musician play a wider variety of accompaniment chords.

You can play the following 14 chord types on your Concertmate 690, in any key, us-
ing the standard fingering method.

Notes:

• To produce a simple variation of a Cm7, Cmaj7, Cdim, or CmM7 chord, omit

the finger positions shown in parentheses (on the keys).

• The diagram above shows only one possible finger position for each chord. It is

possible to play a chord using several different finger positions. For example,
the following three finger positions produce the same C chord.
