B7sus4 Ukulele Chord
A bright, tense dominant suspension spelled B, E, F# and A, with the suspended fourth lending a floating lift before it resolves. It serves as a jazzy or funky V chord that hovers, then settles toward E.

How to Play This Chord
Position your fingers on the fretboard as shown in the diagram. The vertical lines represent the four strings, from the top G string (left) to the A string (right), and the horizontal lines are the frets. Numbers inside the dots indicate which finger to use: 1 (index), 2 (middle), 3 (ring), 4 (pinky). An X means don't play that string; an O means play it open. A bar spanning multiple strings means one finger presses across all of them at once — this is known as a barre chord.
Tips & Tricks
This is the A#7sus4 barre moved up a fret: index barred flat across all four strings at the second fret, with the ring finger on the C string at the fourth fret. Press the barre from the side of the index for even pressure, and keep the ring finger arched high so the barred E and A strings beneath it still sound.
