The E m(maj7) chord is a minor/major seventh — a tense, cinematic minor chord with a natural seventh. It is built from the notes E, G, B, D#. This page shows how to play E m(maj7) on Classical Guitar with clear fretboard diagrams and suggested finger positions.
The shape nearest the nut leaves the E, G and B strings open and takes the rest at fret 1, reaching across 2 frets. The root is the E string itself. It sounds from E2 up to E4. 2 voicings are charted, the highest starting at fret 7.
It has nylon strings on a wider, flatter neck than a steel-string guitar, which is why it is played fingerstyle rather than with a pick.
Browse alternate voicings to find the one that sits best under your fingers, then compare it with the other chord types built on E or explore the same shape in nearby keys. The diagrams list the notes in each voicing so you can connect the shape to the theory behind it.
