How to play F♯5 on 7-string guitar

The most common way, the first shape above: your index finger on the low E string at the 2nd fret, your ring finger on the A string at the 4th fret and your little finger on the D string at the 4th fret. Don’t play the low B, G, high B and high E strings.

From the low B string x 2 4 4 x x x (x: not played, 0: open)

What notes are in F♯5?

F♯5, F♯ power chord, is F♯ and C♯: the root (F♯) and the perfect fifth (C♯). Its formula is 1 5.

Is F♯5 major or minor?

Neither. F♯5 is F♯ and C♯, with no third, which is why it works under major and minor songs alike and stays clear with distortion.

Can I play F♯5 instead of F♯ or F♯m?

In rock, yes: power chords stand in for both.
