How to play A♭7♭13 on guitar
The most common way, the first shape above: lay your index finger flat across the three strings from the low E to the D at the 4th fret, your little finger on the A string at the 6th fret, your middle finger on the G string at the 5th fret and your ring finger on the B string at the 5th fret. Don’t play the high E string.

An easier A♭7♭13
The full shape is a barre chord, hard at first. This one needs no full barre and sounds much the same: your middle finger on the D string at the 6th fret, your index finger on the G string at the 5th fret and your ring finger on the B string at the 7th fret. Let the high E string ring open. Don’t play the low E and A strings.
