See this chord’s shapes for other instruments or tunings by selecting below, or change how the chord shapes are displayed according to your preference.
Tip: The Tuning dropdown has a feature that lets you filter and shorten the list of values by typing in search phrases. You will find this helpful   [Show more] particularly in cases where there are a lot of tuning options – for example, the standard 6/12-string guitar currently has close to 200 tunings to choose from. To use this feature, click/tap on the icon next to the caption of the Tuning dropdown which will expand the options and reveal a text input box just above it. Start typing in letters of the name or the notes (low to high, no spaces) of the tuning you are looking for in the text box. As you type, only those tunings whose names or notes contain the letters you have typed will remain and the rest will disappear from the option list, making it easier to spot the tuning you’re looking for. Use "#" (hash sign) for "♯" (sharp note sign) and "b" for "♭" (flat note sign). The matching is not case-sensitive. Once you see the tuning you are looking for, click/tap on it to select it. You can also use your keyboard arrow keys to move the highlight down and up the list. Once the highlight is on the option you want, you can press the ENTER key to select it. Selecting an option closes the text box and contracts the list. To exit filter mode without making a selection, click/tap the icon again, or press the the ESCAPE key.   [Show less]
