A m(add9) — Guitar (8-String)

A m(add9) as shapes on F#BEADGBE: lowest position first, frets and fingers named, audio on tap.

A m(add9) chord diagram, starting at fret 1. Strings low to high: F# muted, B muted, E muted, A open, D 2nd fret, G 4th fret, B 1st fret, E open.

A m(add9) stacks A – B – C – E. The charts below place those tones on the Guitar (8-String)'s F#BEADGBE strings shape by shape, sorted from the lowest playable position on up — each one names its frets and fingers, and plays on tap.

The extra range changes the arithmetic but not the system: above the added low F# the grid is the standard one, so every six-string shape survives — the new string extends it downward.

Treat the lowest shape as the address and the rest as the route: the same chord repeats along the neck, and choosing WHERE to grab it — near the nut or up where it bites — is most of the craft of rhythm playing.
