Dick Sheridan. Chord Bingo is a game-like method for
learning how chords are constructed and how to form
them yourself on any chord instrument - guitar, banjo,
ukulele, mandolin, keyboard, and others. It's a novel way
of blending theory with application: first you learn a few
easy rules of how chords are made, then you put them to
use. That's where the fun begins. Placing ordinary pocket
coins or other small objects on keyboard or fretboard
diagrams, you select the proper tones for the chord you
want, arranging the coins and the tones they represent in
various possible positions. It's that simple. Bingo!
