help please! (D2 chord)

dermikelovesme · 12-01-2003, 01:12 PM

How is that played? i feel so stupid, but i can't find it anywhere unless D2 is the same as Dsus2 or something else and i just don't know it. If anyone knows, i need this really soon please! Thanks.

x32141 2nd fret. This should be moved to theory or something, not in general discussion.

D2 means either Dsus2 or Dadd9 [aka Dadd2]... nobody can seem to come to a final, binding decision about which one it really means. Anyway, for reasons that don't really pertain to this discussion, it really doesn't matter that much if you play Dsus2 or Dadd9.. so just pick one or the other.

In His love,
Nate

p.s. *whoosh*

x32141 = x - C - E - G# - D# - E#? I fail to see how this could create ANY sus2 or add9 chord.

Even if you barre the chord and play it two frets higher, it still doesn't make sense.

I would generally try xx0230 and see how that sounds.

I vote for what JT said because that is likely what was played with the song if it was P&W.

i was wondering the same thing... that didnt seem to make much sense at all...

I got it from a chord refrence on the net.

http://www.looknohands.com/chordhous.../index_db.html See for yourselves

DarylB · 12-02-2003, 04:41 PM

AHA! I see what happened! Let me post what Saxophone was looking to show what happened?

(see attachment)

The numbers posted were the fingers you were supposed to use the form the chord. The chord is a C2 up barred up two frets. with the actual fingering being

D2
x54242

Hope that clears it up.

Nate · 12-02-2003, 07:57 PM

Oh... that makes so much more sense now. Thanks, Daryl.

In His love,
Nate

georgeo · 12-02-2003, 08:53 PM

or you could use
x/x/12/14/13/12

Is that a joke or are you serious because its close but not quite right

x x 12 14 13 12 would be D A C E (D7sus2) wheras Dsus2 would not have the dominant 7th (C) in it.

A high (on the fret board) D2 might be something like

x x 0 17 19 18 18
