Faug/C♯ inversion · A on top
Beginner● On the diagramF augmented is played in open position as 2 1 1 0: ring finger on the G string at fret 2, index finger on the C string at fret 1 and middle finger on the E string at fret 1. The A string rings open.
Tip — The index and middle fingers share fret 1 on adjacent strings, requiring precise arching to avoid muting the open A string.
