How to play the 13 chord

Explanation: The G thirteenth is a seven-note chord. Due to practical circumstances, some notes (as a suggestion fifth, ninth, and eleventh) are omitted and the chord is played inverted. The chord is sometimes played with both hands. The chord is often abbreviated as G13. Basically, G13 seems to mean "play whatever notes you want as long as you have G in the bass".

It has to be dominant

@@juanjohnn says who?

[@mackenzieusher8025]

​@@barkopediusmaximus5552 That's just the typical nomenclature. If it were played over top of a major chord, we would write G6/9 or something along those lines. To have the sound of a dominant chord, you need the tritone (B and F). So to have the sound of G13 you need G, B, F, and E. But indeed, from there, the fifth, ninth, and sharp eleven can be added in.

@@barkopediusmaximus5552 13 is an extension. It would be G6 if it wasn't dominant. Also in this case is a V chord. So its obviously a dominant chord, learn theory, it´s free nowadays ;)

[@kzeich]

@@stantonclarman6829 f is the flat 7 in the key of G

[@oneillnjanji22]

F is already the flat 7 of G
