G# 9 — Chicago Tuning Banjo
G# 9 on DGBE: every charted voicing with its frets, its fingers, and audio on tap.
G# 9 stacks G# – A# – C – D# – F#. Each chart below places those tones on the Chicago Tuning Banjo's DGBE strings and names the fret and finger holding each one — tap a chart to hear it.
These four open strings are pitch for pitch the top four of a guitar, so guitar fingerings arrive intact. What does not arrive is the sustain: a banjo head answers the pick and stops, which is why the picking hand carries the time here.
Then hand it over: a plectrum banjo lives or dies on the evenness of the stroke, so hold one voicing and play it as steady quarter notes before you let it move anywhere at all.
