Practice D#7sus4 Guitar Chord with Interactive Tools

D# 7sus4 position 1 guitar chord diagram

The D#7sus4 chord, a D# seventh suspended fourth, is made of D#, G#, A# and C#: a root, a perfect fourth, a perfect fifth and a flat seventh. It is the sharp spelling of Eb7sus4, so both labels mean one sound.

Three shapes are listed here, two with a barre, between frets 4 and 13. After you strum one, the microphone check in the player at the top tells you which strings ring and which stay muted, so a barre that is not pressed hard enough shows up at once. The D# Mixolydian scale holds all four chord tones.

D# dominant 7th suspended 4th guitar chord is also written as D#7sus4, D#7sus or D#7(sus4).
