Stay pleb tho

>>53321042
What

F# seventh third inversion

>F# best suits the major seventh chord
>third inversion of a seventh has that delicious minor 2nd interval with the root & 7th
>result is beautiful dissonance

not very practical for guitar though

>>53320956
F#A#∞

Daily reminder that you are a pleb if you don't tune your geetar in F#A#F#A#F#A#

C9 (no 5th)

>>53321106
>not very practical for guitar though
ah I was about to say I've never once heard the term inversion before.

>>53321128
F#A# infinity, right?

>not posting the better version

Also, this:
>>53321034

>>53321170
how is this version better?

>>53321486
its not, though if it had quote from dead flag blues then it would be i guess

>>53321154
Lrn2theory. It's a chord with a note other than the root as the lowest note.

>>53320956
Either A minor or F flat

You mean an E?

Cmin7 add 9. Good chord.

>not #11
kill yourself

>>53321676
>Cm7 add9
It's just called Cm9 you dumb dumb

D7 with an open D while the rest of the notes are being played at the 3 highest strings is absolutely gorgeous

>all triads and basic 7th chords

Proof that guitarists are inferior musicians

>>53320956
Nothing better than a Dmaj7 when playing in the key of A/F#m

>Emaj 9 11 13
Do you mean Emaj13 without the seventh? Because without the seventh it's likely not functioning as Emaj; it'd be like a... B13sus4/E or something. Also, how on Earth would you voice that? 023214? You'd have to either play the high-e string with your right hand, or else be able to bar second fret with your middle finger across the A, D, and G strings, but not the B or high-e.

>>53321777
If you use #11 and omit the fifth, isn't the eleventh just a b5? Oddly enough, that one's quite easy to play as 011122

>>53321625
You mean Dx?

>>53321106
Wait... major seven, or dominant seven?

>>53322375
Who said anything about omitting the 5th

B9 is the way to go. get on my level, mortals.

>>53322414
Well what are you going to omit instead? Or do you want it only playable on a seven-string?

>playing in sharp keys

fucking guitarists

>>53322463
lrn to rootless voicings

>>53322469
you men faggots who can't don't into Jazz and "Have a favorite chord"

>>53322531
>playing jazz in sharp keys

no

>>53322469
>>53322531
it always tickles my autism when I hear guitarists playing a song in F and talking about going to the A#

Also having a favorite cord is just silly, but having a favorite voicing I think is a little different.

>>53322563
>playing jazz with brassfags
Not even once

>>53322571
When you're playing music native to the guitar, a favorite chord and voicing tend to go together, especially in a modal tuning if you swing that way. Then a good voicing is usually one that frees up your fingers to play the melody.

>>53322630
I'm not really talking about the guitar specifically, I just mean I think it's odd to prefer a C69 over a D69 assuming the fingering is the same.

>>53322638
It's not a temperament thing, more of the voicing of the guitar itself, but some guitars sound better playing certain chords. Mine has this lovely beat that sounds like a leslie cab or a spring reverb when I play Gmaj7. The partials on some other notes are much more resonant as well. The high A and D have some overtones that will drive cats crazy.

i just put my fingers places till it sounds good & then i find other places that compliment the other bit that sounds good. it works for me but it's clearly hilarious & baffling for people when i get them to play with me & have to show them how to play my songs.

>>53322727
>drive cats crazy
You need to stop with the jazz lingo, daddio.

>>53322773
Nah you jive turkey, if you were hep to my sizzle, you'd catch that my drift was literal. Modal players are bent like the neck of a pawnshop Epi and my gutbox makes overtones like a dog whistle. Shit has given me tinnitus.

F#13m7th

Or whatever you call it when you play a normal barre F# chord except you let the top two strings (E and B) ring without pressing them.

Cmaj

Cmaj7(add13)

Cmaj7 is easy and versatile, sounds great.

D/G is really nice

>>53322375
nerd

Dm(maj7) - Asus4 - A

Gmin9 also like subbing in an 11th or sharp 11th, often have to omit a fifth or root to keep the chord from being too full.

this one time i was getting yelled at by my high school principal and all i could think about was the C chord so ill go with that

Em7 or Bm7
I'm torn.

Any 69 or b9 chord

Not if the note is above the 7th. Same pitch class though

>>53320956
F#11

Either that, or some sus chord. Anything diminished is nice too.

I'll throw in D7sus add 3

D G C F# A

>>53322435
Do you mean

B D# F# A C#?

>>53322563
It's beautiful if you can do it, most jazz musicians think it's too hard. I love playing in E though. I think towards the end of his career Bill Evans' favorite was A.

>>53323367
Nice chord. Have you tried keeping that structure and seeing what bass notes fit under it? It sounds gorgeous with an Ab

>>53323683
Nice

>>53323702
too Windham Hill for me

>>53320956
E7, no question.
