What notes are in E♭?

E♭, E♭ major, is E♭, G and B♭: the root (E♭), the major third (G) and the perfect fifth (B♭). Its formula is 1 3 5.

What is the difference between E♭ and E♭m?

One note. E♭ has the major third, G; E♭m lowers it a half step to G♭. That one note turns the bright sound of a major chord into the darker sound of a minor one.

Can I play E♭5 instead?

E♭5, the power chord, is E♭ and B♭ with no third, so it is neither major nor minor. It stands in for E♭ in rock, especially with distortion, where a full chord can sound muddy.
