The F# Major Chord
For the F# major chord, we use the same fingering as the F chord, just up 1 fret. The fingering for an F# major chord is shown below:
So how do you go about fingering this? Take your first finger and lay it across all 6 strings on the 2nd fret. Now place your 2nd, 3rd, and 4th fingers according to the diagram. Try strumming it. It's OK if some notes don't ring. That's natural. In time, all the notes will ring loud and true. The important thing is that you now know how to play your Ab major chord.
Try playing the music example below, set your loop count to "Forever" in your preferences at the bottom
of the page, hit the play button, wait for the music to start, and try to play along with the example.
It'll help you become more comfortable with
the chord.
