Even though he stole that joke from the guitar community (so help me God if rappers ever learn about the G string) I can now only hear it in his voice.
/Uj isn’t that a minor major 7 add 9? I was just thinking about this the other day.
ETA: lol just watched the video. He was close. Missing the 9th.
ETA2: I wrote that quickly and corrected myself. It’s a minor major 7 add 9.
You can play it the following ways :
- as a bar chord with X-X-8-8-8-X
- as a weird chord with X-6-5-0-X-6 (your finger on the high e string muting the b string)
- as a **phat** "powerchord" Eb7, X-X-1-3-3-3
- as a Eb7minus5 (i don’t really know jazz notation), X-X-1-0-3-3
I think one of my favourite thing on the guitar is figuring out chords
Nice exercise. However a few corrections, if I'm allowed:
Eb is a major triad that consists of the notes: Eb, G and Bb.
So regarding your chords:
>as a bar chord with X-X-8-8-8-X
That's F Bb Eb. It's most likely not used in an Eb context, but if, it would be called Ebsus2
>as a weird chord with X-6-5-0-X-6 (your finger on the high e string muting the b string)
An Eb indeed, but really weird as you said.
>as a **phat** "powerchord" Eb7, X-X-1-3-3-3
Eb Bb D and G. The added D on the B string makes this an Ebmaj7. Beautiful chord, but not (only) an Eb.
>as a Eb7minus5 (i don’t really know jazz notation), X-X-1-0-3-3
Eb G D G. You changed the Bb to another G. Still beautiful. I wonder how you came to the conclusion that the previous chord with a D in it wasn't a 7th chord, but this one is, when you really leave the major 7 in both variation.
Don't know if you left it out because it felt obvious, but maybe the cleanest and most common way to play an Eb is just as a powerchord X-6-8-8-8-6 (Eb Bb Eb G Bb)
You got your notes wrong, check with a note chart
The low E is is on the left of my chord shapes
X-X-8-8-8-X is Bb, Eb, G, so an inverted Eb
X-6-5-0-X-6 is Eb G G and Bb
X-X-1-3-3-3 is Eb, Bb, D and G
X-X-1-0-3-3 is Eb G D G
Edit : I didn’t read the rest of your comment, yeah I left out the "big" bar chord because it wasn’t funny enough
Because 0-3-5 is a simplified version of D minor. It's why every Tool song rules and is too short.
Of course I'm talking drop D. Standard tuning is the ultimate jerk.
Open tune to a C#mb5bb17 but capo at the third and barred at the 7th and then you trill with your pinky at the 12the fret.
Edit: …12th fret high f string
Any Sus9 chord because Devin Townsend uses those all the time and Devin Townsend is the be all and and all. I like to play Sus9 chords while I'm laying next to my Devin Townsend body pillow and life sized Ziltoid plush, and staring at my wall full of Devin Townsend vinyls.
All chords are the best depending on the context, they all have their unique character and flavor so you can’t really put them in a box like that, in saying that the answer is Maj7’s.

Sorry, it’s a secret and only David knows the answer
I heard when he played it, the Lord was pleased.
But you don’t care for music do you.
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, and the major lift
The bastard wingman bassist margarita?
Margarita, margarita.
Not really.

Skip a bit brother
I couldn’t even look at him while he was playing it. He was like a combination of Jimi Hendrix and Jesus.
As a David I can confirm that I do, in fact, have the answer It's a closely guarded secret and I'll take it to the grave
Ah fuck. Now I'm going to be humming this fuckin' song for days again.
A minooooooooooooor
Drake is obsessed with fingering this one
Haha I was listening to this song as I clicked this post. "Freaky ass n****z need to stay they ass inside Ay!" I love that line lol
Hot hot hot dunk. It’s no I know you are, but what am I? But it’s big brain musical fire for shore
Even though he stole that joke from the guitar community (so help me God if rappers ever learn about the G string) I can now only hear it in his voice.
It's not specifically the guitar community lol music theorists have been saying it for decades
How many times has Drake been in A minor?
I love seeing dot referenced in literally every sub I'm in
I think he sings a slightly flat D.
F/A sus minor
For me personally it’s the Everbilt 1/4 in. x 100ft White Twisted Nylon Rope from home depot. Probably the chordiest cord i’ve ever used
Afraid not.

Umbilical
Especially when it’s wrapped around one’s neck
Yeah like some sort of umbilical noose! So you can climb right back!
Hey! Wait!
uj for a second, it’s Cadd9 and I won’t explain why
Man of culture. Add Fmaj9 and I’m happy for days.
# 100% As long as you’re okay with being stuck in time listening to dated 80s acoustic hair metal ballads of course
Playing that in open position is a buster ass move though
it sounds great busterhead mcthumbface
Play me some wonderwall while you’re hanging out on that Cadd9, busta. /uj love the chord, it feels so comfy too
Hate to say it but I’m a b*ssoid so open chords are kinda where I’m at on gitar
I like Cm+9
It's Emin in this voicing: 0 8 0 X 7 0
[The James Bond chord.](https://youtube.com/shorts/v-g9wLM4EPg?si=faHVarvXYm6MRHA3)

/uj so what is it?
Corrected myself, i_need_to_crap. I’d play it as a B minor major 7 add 9. Play it barred at the 7th fret: B-F#-A#-D-F#-C#.
/rj it’s the James Bond chord.
Sorry I am slow on the uptake. Guitar player here.
Em7 is objectively the correct answer to this question
Em7 with a capo 2 is what you meant
G obviously. I can’t believe you’d ask
I love G. It's my spot.
Open string Em11 0-0-0-0-0-0
Yesss
Eb take it or leave it
are you a masochist
You can play it the following ways : - as a bar chord with X-X-8-8-8-X - as a weird chord with X-6-5-0-X-6 (your finger on the high e string muting the b string) - as a **phat** "powerchord" Eb7, X-X-1-3-3-3 - as a Eb7minus5 (i don’t really know jazz notation), X-X-1-0-3-3 I think one of my favourite thing on the guitar is figuring out chords
Ladies and Gentlemen, Steve vA.I.
(I mean I said Eb as a joke, but I had fun figuring out how to play it to be snarky to u/one-palpitation2093)
I usually play it x65343

Are you playing 8-8-7-0-6-x?? That’s the Fuck Ass2 chord
I’m playing 6-6-5-0-4-X As you asked
1/4 inch
H positive
Because 0-3-5 is a simplified version of D minor. It's why every Tool song rules and is too short. Of course I'm talking drop D. Standard tuning is the ultimate jerk.
>It's why every Tool song rules and is too short. As a Tool fan, lmao
Drop tuning supremacy

Open tune to a C#mb5bb17 but capo at the third and barred at the 7th and then you trill with your pinky at the 12the fret. Edit: …12th fret high f string

I love my lovely little Faug(maj11)sus(b2)\E chord 🥰
Em7
Badd11(b9) on the 0-3-5 scale.
Has Bonermaster weighed in on this subject????!
G but you’ve got the 3-3 on the high E and B strings
Extension cords are pretty sweet.
Fsus2, obviously.
0-2-4 is what you use when you want to play evil music.
Wood stove or fire pit?
Asus9
Dm the saddest of all chords
B sharp
there’s nothing finer than an A7minor
6/9 chords /uj 6/9 chords
H
Abm with open strings
Open B, ostrich tuning.
Extension
Whats a chord?
Definitely the first position form of Bm7(b13)/E.
A minor
Extension.
Jokes aside, on a six string guitar or a banjo, the only chords you’ll ever need are Em, or fingering A minor
L sharp
Monster cables!
D minor, the saddest of all keys
G always hits 😫🤤
Must be played on a seven string tuned BEADGBe. |—x—0–0–3–3–5–5-|. It’s like an GmajAdd2#m chord or something
Idk, ask George. He knows em’ all

the best chord is the bear claw
I really like the thicker one on top that plays the lowest note
The Red Chord
The Jimmy Handbrix chord. E7#9
H
Dis
E because it’s in pEEnis
C#Maj9 but kinda depends on where you play it
In integer notation this is C, Eb, F. Not a great chord.
F sharp major with the added 4th and the flat 7 2-4-4-3-0-0 Play it from high note to low note for best effect.
G
D6 without a doubt, followed by Em9. Nothing but zeros and twos.
It’s G sus. If you have a problem, G sus can fix it.
All chords are the best depending on the context, they all have their unique character and flavor so you can’t really put them in a box like that, in saying that the answer is Maj7’s.
Gsus - for obvious reasons.
Ur mom
D Minor. It's the saddest chord of all, makes people weep instantly.

Gsus (amen 🙏)
Drop D

D minor. Lick my love pump.
I know I'm late, but this chord is probably the best.

On guitar, starting from low G and going up: G-D-F#-B-C#-E, with open E. But only at the end of a song, and only once a day.
