How to play G7sus4♭9 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 3rd fret, your middle finger on the B string at the 3rd fret and your ring finger on the high E string at the 4th fret. Let the G string ring open.

An easier G7sus4♭9
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 5th fret, your ring finger on the G string at the 5th fret, your little finger on the B string at the 6th fret and your index finger on the high E string at the 4th fret. Don’t play the low E and A strings.
