How to play Bbmaj7

The notes in Bbmaj7 are Bb, D, F, A. In standard guitar tuning, read strings from low E to high E. A × means mute that string; ○ means play it open. Numbers in the circles indicate suggested fingers: 1 index, 2 middle, 3 ring, 4 pinky. A fret number beside the grid locates a higher position.

Start with one shape and sound each string separately. Keep your fingers close to the frets. Higher shapes and three-note voicings offer a different register of the same chord. Piano mode highlights the corresponding notes and lets you compare inversions.
