    For example, in the open-G overtones tuning G–G–D–G–B–D, the (G,B) interval is a major third, and of course each successive pair of notes on the G- and B-strings is also a major third; similarly, the open-string minor-third (B,D) induces minor thirds among all the frets of the B-D strings.

    Other chord qualities such as major sevenths, suspended chords, and dominant sevenths use familiar symbols: 4 Δ 7 5 sus 5 7 1 would stand for F Δ 7 G sus G 7 C in the key of C, or E ♭ Δ 7 F sus F 7 B ♭ in the key of B ♭. A 2 means "add 2" or "add 9". Chord inversions and chords with other altered bass notes are notated analogously to ...
