A Flat Suspended 2nd (also written G#sus2)
Absus2 is made of 3 notes: Ab, Bb and Eb. Here it is in root position, with Ab at the bottom.
Inside Notley Piano: all the inversions of Absus2, fingering for both hands, a play button, and practice that helps you remember it.
| Note | Degree | Interval from Ab |
|---|---|---|
| Ab | 1 | root |
| Bb | 2 | major 2nd |
| Eb | 5 | perfect 5th |
A sus2 chord replaces the 3rd with a major 2nd. With no 3rd it sounds open and airy, neither happy nor sad, and it often moves back to a major or minor chord.
