What do you use for the second chord?
Thank you Lairence! I’m happy you liked my tone :-)

Right, but what chord are you playing?
Laurence Diehl it’s a D7/9 (#11) on tenor I play (low to high) F# C G# E, on five string with G tuning you could play it with 4556 (you will have the ninth one octave lower than tenor) you can move this chord up and down every two fret remaining on the whole tone scale….
