In the following post, we will be covering how to play the Eb7sus4 guitar chord .
The Eb7sus4 Guitar Chord is found by locating the 1, 4, 5 and b7 positions of the Eb Major scale: Eb F G Ab Bb C D Eb, or the notes Eb, Ab, Bb and Db. The “b7″ symbol is referring to the flattened 7th position of the Eb Scale. When we flatten a note, we are simply going back 1/2 step from that note.

In today’s post we will be learning exactly how to play a guitar chord known as C#7sus4. Other names for this chord are C Sharp 7 Sus 4, C# dominant 7th suspended 4th, Db7sus4. Let’s dive into a little music theory concerning this chord shall we? This chord has it’s origins in the C# Scale. The C# Scale consists of the following note: C#, D#, E#, F#, G#, A#, and B#. As you can see there are 7 notes within this scale, but we only need 4 notes from this scale to build are chord and those notes are: C#, F#, G#, B. You are probably wondering how we came up with those 4 notes right? Well it’s quite simple. We need to apply a simple little formula that looks like this: 1-4-5-b7. This just means that we need to take the 1st, 4th, 5th and flattened 7th positions of the C# Scale to make our C#7sus4. The “flattened 7th” or “b7″ may need a bit of explaining. For this, we just take the 7th position of the C# scale and go back or “flatten” that note one half step to arrive at our “B”.
