Eaug7 Ukulele Chord

Eaug7 pulls E, G#, C, and D into a jagged dominant shape whose raised fifth adds an unmistakable jazzy sting. It thrives as a tension-building V chord in funk and jazz, leaning toward an A-minor landing with restless, bluesy energy.

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

Set your index finger on the G string at fret 1, your middle finger on the C string at fret 2, and your ring finger on the A string at fret 3, leaving the E string open. The stretch across three frets is the test — anchor the index first, then fan the other fingers out and let the open E ring through.
