The lowest shape sits at fret 5 and spans 3 frets, with no open strings in it. The E string stays silent, so 5 of 6 sound. D falls on the A string. It sounds from D3 up to B4.
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 D 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.
