The Asus4 chord can be played in five core CAGED positions across the fretboard, plus additional capo shapes and inversions. The voicings page lists each position with interactive fretboard diagrams, suggested fingerings, and audio previews so you can compare how they sound.
What are the CAGED positions for the Asus4 chord?
CAGED maps the Asus4 chord onto five open-chord shapes (C, A, G, E, and D) moved up the neck. Each position gives the Asus4 chord a different timbre and fingering, which is useful for voice-leading between chords, sliding between positions, or matching the register of a song.
How do I play the Asus4 chord with a capo?
Capo shapes reuse open Asus4 fingerings in any key by clamping the capo at the fret that transposes the shape to your target root (A). The voicings page shows capo-friendly Asus4 shapes along with the capo fret each one requires, so you can keep easy open-position fingerings instead of barring.
What are inversions of the Asus4 chord?
An inversion places a note other than the root (A) as the lowest-sounding pitch in the Asus4 chord. The voicings page shows first inversion (lowest note D), second inversion (lowest note E), so you can choose the bass note and voice-leading that best fit your chord progression.
