View this chord in: G-Tuning (DGBE)D-Tuning (ADF#B)Slack-Key Tuning (GCEG)
The Bmaj7 uses all the fingers, so it can be difficult. The index is on the first fret of the A string and the middle finger is on the second fret of the E string. After that the ring finger plays the third fret of the C string, and the easy part is over. Now we have to put the pinky on the fourth fret of the G string. But it can be hard to move the pinky and ring fingers alone, they have a tendency in this stretched position to not cooperate. It is a chord that will definitely take a lot of practice and hand training.
