Topic: How do u place fingers on E7#9?

Should I hold the last 2 strings on the 3rd fret with my 5th finger? That`s very hard... Should I practice, or there`s another way?

What is the chord shape you are trying to play? You can get the 7th by playing an open D string and not bothering with the D played on the 3rd fret on the B string.
3   = #9
0
1
0   = 7
2
0

How does that sound?

Begin by placing pointer finger on Gstring(1st fret)

Next, place middle finger on A string(2nd fret)

Finally, I would use the ring finger on the B string(3rd fret) and the pinky finger on the high E string(3rd fret) as this chord chart indicates;

**the R indicates root, not ring finger**


e - 3rd fret pinky
B - 3rd fret ring
G - 1st fret pointer
D -  open
A - 2nd fret middle
E -  open

Give everything but up.
