A m11 Chord on 12-String Guitar
Play A m11 on 12-String Guitar: diagrams, finger positions, intervals, and every voicing up and down the neck for this instrument.
The A m11 chord is a minor extended chord that stacks higher tensions over a minor-seventh foundation. It is built from the notes A, B, C, D, E, G. This page shows how to play A m11 on 12-String Guitar with clear fretboard diagrams and suggested finger positions.
The A, D and G strings ring open in the lowest shape, with the remaining notes fretted at fret 1 over a 3-fret stretch. The E string stays silent, so 5 of 6 sound. The root is the A string itself. It sounds from A2 up to G4.
12-String Guitar is strung in six courses of two, the lower four paired an octave apart, so each stopped note here sounds as two — which is why the shape rings thicker than the same grip on a single-strung instrument.
Browse alternate voicings to find the one that sits best under your fingers, then compare it with the other chord types built on A 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.
