How to play F♯sus2 on 7-string guitar

The most common way, the first shape above: your middle finger on the low E string at the 2nd fret, your little finger on the A string at the 4th fret, your little finger on the D string at the 4th fret and your index finger on the G string at the 1st fret. Don’t play the low B, high B and high E strings.

What notes are in F♯sus2?

F♯sus2, F♯ suspended second, is F♯, G♯ and C♯: the root (F♯), the major second (G♯) and the perfect fifth (C♯). Its formula is 1 2 5.

Is F♯sus2 the same as F♯add9?

No, though the names point at the same extra note, G♯. F♯sus2 leaves out the third, so it is neither major nor minor; F♯add9 keeps the third, A♯, and adds the ninth on top.

Where does F♯sus2 go?

Often back to F♯ or F♯m, G♯ moving up to the third. It also works on its own as an open, ringing chord.
