The device uses tones that, together, make up a synthetic hexatonic scale (0 1 4 6 7 t). When enharmonically spelled C–D ♭ –E–G ♭ –G(♮)–B ♭, it is called the tritone scale.
The open-string notes form a C major chord, which is the triad (C,E,G) having the root note C, the major third (C,E), and the perfect fifth (C,G). When the guitar is strummed without fretting even one string, a C-major chord is sounded. By barring all of the strings for one fret (from one to eleven), one finger suffices to fret the other eleven ...
For instance, the notation C/E bass indicates a C major triad in first inversion i.e. a C major triad with an E in the bass. Likewise the notation C/G bass indicates that a C major chord with a G in the bass (second inversion). See figured bass for alternate method of notating specific notes in the bass.
For the English guitar the open chord is C major (C–E–G–C–E–G); [67] for the Russian guitar which has seven strings, G major (G–B–D–G–B–D–G). [ 68 ] [ 69 ] [ 70 ] Mixing a perfect fourth and a minor third along with a major third, these tunings are on-average major-thirds regular-tunings.

In major scales, a diminished triad occurs only on the seventh scale degree. For instance, in the key of C, this is a B diminished triad (B, D, F). Since the triad is built on the seventh scale degree, it is also called the leading-tone triad. This chord has a dominant function.
For example, the previously mentioned chord progression, in the key of E ♭ major, would be written as E ♭ major–B ♭ major–C minor–A ♭ major in a fake book or lead sheet. In the first chord, E ♭ major, the "E ♭ " indicates that the chord is built on the root note "E ♭ " and the word "major" indicates that a major chord is ...
A guitarist performing a C chord with G bass. In Western music theory, a chord is a group [a] of notes played together for their harmonic consonance or dissonance.The most basic type of chord is a triad, so called because it consists of three distinct notes: the root note along with intervals of a third and a fifth above the root note.
