Sometimes you hear different names for the same chord and when people are being very helpful in the forums some people refer to chords in Roman numerals or numbers and others refer to chords in letters! When learning it's difficult to understand when two or three people are talking about the same chord but referring to it differently gets kinda confusing!
My question is is there a chart or something that's shows which cord names mean the same thing?

We're not worthy...

Just like to thank everyone who contribted to my thread everyones imput has been invaluable to say the least, I leanr so much from not just reading but also rereading a second or third time til it sinks in!

Have oredered an electric canjo but wont arrive for another month so for my next adventure ive decided to make a diddley bow this weekend so can get some practive in! I know I know threads about chords and now a one string, well I know its a bit backwards to some but think I can pick up few songs quicker and get more enjoyment in learning! Before I start on three string again in a few months!

So my next stupid questions will be on a one string diddley bow build, ill start new thread for that!feel free to ad more on this thread as im always learning more and more from everybody! Wish I could thank you all individually my friends!!!

..... So, the E-flat leaves, and the C and the G have an open fifth between them. After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished: the G is out flat. 

F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but he is not sharp enough. D comes into the bar and heads straight for the bathroom saying, "Excuse me, I'll just be a second." 

A comes into the bar, the bartender knows he is a relative of C, but is not convinced he is not a minor. Then the bartender notices a B-flat hiding at the end of the bar and exclaims: "Get out now! You're the seventh minor I've found in this bar tonight." The E-flat, not easily deflated, comes back to the bar later that night in a 3-piece suit with nicely shined shoes. 

The bartender says: "You're looking sharp tonight, come on in! This could be a major development." This proves to be the case, as the E-flat takes off the suit and stands there au natural. Eventually, the C sobers up and realizes in horror that he's under a rest. The C is brought to trial, is found guilty of contributing to the diminution of a minor, and is sentenced to 10 years of DS without Coda at an upscale correctional facility. 

On appeal, however, the C is found innocent of any wrongdoing, even accidental, and that all accusations to the contrary are bassless. The bartender decides, however that since he's only had tenor so patrons, the soprano out in the bathroom, and everything has become alto much treble, he needs a rest and closes the bar......

Brilliant
Brill! Abso-f$&@king-lute-ly! >:-E

Wow! Think we could get Ben to post this to the Knowledge Base??

Hahaha!
I can be so dense sometimes with the last few weeks I realised that when there is a chord A5 for example the 5 means power chord 158 (151) which are the simplest to play in 151 tuning on cbg! Up until now when I was searching for rock songs to lean I used to see the 5 and run scared thinking its some demon chord impossible to play! So I always dismissed learning them but now that I know it's just power chords there are a whole lot of songs that I previously dismissed that I can now go back and try! Happy days:-)
Knowledge!
And the light bulb goes on...congrats, Scruggy. We'll miss you ;-)

LOL Isn't that "click" just the greatest feeling?
