Good introductory sentence, but the rest of the lead section could be more concise by trimming a few bits of information which should be saved for later sections.

There is an "Etymology" section which is nothing more than a single sentence, but the Talk page has been very contentious on the origins of the "barre" name. It could do with addressing the alternative name of "bar chord"

The "Technique and Application" section does a good job of providing clear and competent guitar tablature to illustrate its talking points. Halfway through they neglect to add links to articles about important topics such as "minor third", "dominant 7th", etc. It also mentions "replacing the nut with a finger", referring to a guitar nut, but again it fails to provide a link or clarify what kind of nut it is referring to.

The "Diagonal Barre chord" section is also a mere sentence long, and lacks any sources to prove its existence, nor gives explanation on how to perform it unlike the previous section.

The citations have 14 sources, three of which are attributed to one "Jerry Snyder".
