There’s a typo in there. With a capo on the second fret if you play a G chord the chord you are playing is A.
The second part is correct.
Thanks for your response, now I understand.

I think this is the first of the lessons that I’ve found less than clear (I’ve done all of beginner grade 1 and 2). I think Justin goes through the same methodology for finding all chords in each of the capo positions. I know we all learn differently, but I found it a bit of a brain fry.
I found it easier (and much quicker) to follow the methodology to work out where the capo can go and what the 1st chord shape is, but then use the Nashville numbering system for the remaining chords. This also has the advantage that it tells you what minor chord shapes you need (admittedly often a barre).
I’m guessing this may well be addressed in @Richard_close2u Capo thread (linked above in this thread). I’ll read it.

Cool lesson! There might be an error in the text explanation below the video, it states you’d play a c chord by using an A shape with finger as capo on 5th fret, where it should be 3rd fret. Thanks for the lessons! Sending some love from San Francisco.
