First examples will all be in C minor (4 note chords) using Contrary Motion: 
(notes are written lowest tone on left to highest tone on right)

Some of these chords are difficult to play on guitar. Suggestion when overdubbing or playing with another guitarist - split chord into two separate parts. Also experiment changing octaves of notes within chord-higher or lower in tone.
