Question:
ok so in part of this song im workin on i have these two chords, i dont know exactly what their names would be, one is a Em7 with a Capo at the 6th fret, i know how to name these types of chords but with the m7 im not sure if it would change. Breaking it down, its using the E form on thw 6th Fret which is an A#. but it is not a Major E form, it is a Em7, would it be an A#m7?
Ill post the other chord when i get some replys.
Tell me if you dont understand what i said
Answer:
The "m7" does not change, so yes, you've got yourself an A#m7.
Answer:
Well, that depends on which key you are playing in. It could be a Bbm7
Answer:
true, well its not that important at the moment anyway.
Just wanted to know if that was right cause if it was then the whole system i thought up was.
Answer:
The other chord looks lke this
0------|------|------|
X------|------|---2--|
0------|------|------|
X------|---1--|------|
0------|------|------|
X------|------|------|
The 0's are for open in case you didnt get my tabbing. so its like an A. BUT it is moved up with a capo at the sixth.
wadda ya think?
Answer:

thanks..
Answer:
Your chords would be a lot easier to read if you typed them like this: x02032. In that chord, you're taking the A7sus4 and adding an F# which makes it an A7sus4add6. You could also call it Em9/A.
Answer:
ahhh, theres always an easier way, but it doesnt get noticed til after ive done it the hard way.
thanks again

Ew, ew, ew. Awful. Just call it an A13 and be done with it. Sure it doesn't have a third, but still. It's got the seventh, eleventh, and thirteenth, so why not call it that?
Answer:
and with the capo at the 6th FRET?
(how many times have i said that)
Answer:
Just transpose it up 3 whole steps like you did with the other ones. D#13 or A#m9/D#.
Answer:
thought as much, now, For the final time...

(how many times have i said that) Change the letter name to whatever note is the bass tone capo(e)d. D#, in this instance if I'm not mistaken. I'm not at an instrument right now.

It would be even better to name it by function... but we can't tell that from the chord itself.
