B9 (Guitar, Intermediate)


B9 is a 9th chord, and a 9th chord usually implies that the chord contains both a dominant seventh and a ninth, as opposed to an add-9th chord or a suspended-2nd chord. (A 9th note is essentially a 2nd note, but one octave higher.)

A string = B (root note)
D string = D# (major 3rd)
G string = A (dominant 7th)
B string = C# (9th note)
High E string = F# (perfect 5th)
