Whats your favourite chord (guitar chord)

Mine is probably either:

Am - because it's easy and it's kinda sad sounding and great to pluck.
or
Cadd9(x32033) - Great version of C to be played when G follows or preceeds.

Ye, I've been kicking into the sus2 chords for ages, it's starting to get on my nips actually. I used to be into the minor 7ths but I feel myself moving into the major 7ths now.

Favourite chord would have to be...

E-0
B-5
G-0
D-6
A-7
E-0

I don't know what it is technically but I call it the E majmin. It feels dead spooky, I wrote a spooky song with it. Great played with the min7th note and the F# note on the b string

Neil3030 · 21-04-2002 03:22PM

So is that chord just C moved up 4 frets?

Gordon · 21-04-2002 03:34PM

Yeh but it turns into spooky spook Emajmin!!
