How to play E♭maj9♯11 on guitar
The most common way, the first shape above: lay your index finger flat across the four strings from the D to the high E at the 5th fret, your middle finger on the A string at the 6th fret, your little finger on the G string at the 7th fret and your ring finger on the B string at the 6th fret. Don’t play the low E string.

An easier E♭maj9♯11
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 low E string at the 6th fret, your ring finger on the A string at the 6th fret, your little finger on the B string at the 6th fret and your index finger on the high E string at the 5th fret. Let the D and G strings ring open.
