  2. Augmented triad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_triad

    An augmented triad is a chord, made up of two major thirds (an augmented fifth). The term augmented triad arises from an augmented triad being considered a major chord whose top note (fifth) is raised. When using popular-music symbols, it is indicated by the symbol "+" or "aug". For example, the augmented triad built on A ♭, written as A ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_thirds_tuning

    For example, the C-augmented triad (C, E, G ♯) has a G ♯ in place of the C-major triad's G. (The note G ♯ is enharmonically equivalent to A ♭, as noted above.) Consequently, M3 tunings are also called (open) augmented-fifth tunings (in French "La guitare #5, majeure quinte augmentée"). [23] Instructional literature uses standard tuning ...

    C/A ♭ bass (A ♭ –C–E–G), which is equivalent to A ♭ M7 ♯ 5, C ♯ /E bass (E–G ♯ –C ♯ –E ♯), and; Am/D bass (D–A–C–E). Chord notation in jazz usually gives a certain amount of freedom to the player for how the chord is voiced, also adding tensions (e.g., 9th) at the player's discretion. Therefore, upper ...

  6. Bass guitar tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_guitar_tuning

    Tuning machines (with spiral metal worm gears) are mounted on the back of the headstock on the bass guitar neck. The standard design for the electric bass guitar has four strings, tuned E, A, D and G, in fourths such that the open highest string, G, is an eleventh (an octave and a fourth) below middle C, making the tuning of all four strings the same as that of the double bass (E 1 –A 1 –D ...

  7. Augmented tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_tuning

    An augmented tuning is a musical tuning system for musical instruments that is associated with augmented triads, that is a root note, a major third, and an augmented fifth. The augmented fifth is constructed by stacking the major third with another major third.

  8. Regular tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_tuning

    "The augmented-fourth interval is the only interval whose inverse is the same as itself. The augmented-fourths tuning is the only tuning (other than the 'trivial' tuning C–C–C–C–C–C) for which all chords-forms remain unchanged when the strings are reversed. Thus the augmented-fourths tuning is its own 'lefty' tuning." [23]

  9. Root position - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_position

    The root position of a chord is the voicing of a triad, seventh chord, or ninth chord in which the root of the chord is the bass note and the other chord factors are above it. . In the root position, uninverted, of a C-major triad, the bass is C — the root of the triad — with the third and the fifth stacked above it, forming the intervals of a third and a fifth above the root of C, respective
