@ CrowBear,

I do know what +5 means on a tuning chart, but what does it mean in your chord chart context?
Which string or pedal/lever is affected?

+(plus)5

Post by Bobby Bowman »

Peter,
It means the number of frets above 0(zero),,,,(no pedals position).
- means below zero and + means above zero.

What do these mean (I know the French, but how/why different from the English equivalents?)

13éme
Augmenté
Diminué

Well that confused me more, as these have different specs but a "dimished" (aka "dimished seventh") chord in any language should be the same:

Diminué (°)----*-1 ------------ 8 6 5 ------------- F

Dim7 ---------*+2 ------------ 9 8 6 5 ------------ F

In the purest classical sense I suppose "diminished" might refer to a simple diminished triad (no 7th at all) but in popular music the double-dimished 7th is implied by "dimished chord".
