The D 6sus4 chord is a suspended chord that swaps the third for a second or fourth, leaving the harmony open and unresolved. It is built from the notes D, G, A, B. This page shows how to play D 6sus4 on Mandola with clear fretboard diagrams and suggested finger positions.
The shape nearest the nut leaves the G and D courses open and takes the rest at fret 2. D falls on the C course. It sounds from D3 up to B4.
Mandola is strung in four courses of two, 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.
