what is this chord?

Post by Forest Farmer »

Help! my pushup pedal lowers my #6(g#) a half step. I use it as a transition between a 1 and 4 chord. I.E. 4,5,6@3rd,-4,5,6@1st, w/pushup, 8,5,6@3rdw/AB. At the 1st fret with pedal I get notes F,A,and B. Where do I tell the rest of the band I'm going?
Thanks, Forest

Those three notes will most often be a G9, as it has 3, 7 and 9.
The tritone can also be in the C# chord, but that A will make it an Augmented 7, like the second chord in Right or Wrong, if you did it in E.

More amps than guitars, and not many effects

Thanks so much! The dom 7 just was not complete, and the bassman was following my 4th string, to F.

Hmmm, that could be interesting, if you get the rest of the band to stay on the G.
