Its the lesson on Open Chords and Arpeggios by Chris - In the Rock Course 1.

They are known as slash chords, which are a normal chord with an additional note in the bass.I have been playing for awhile and still have a hard time with them- I think it is something only certain guitarists can do - I usually just leave out the variation.
