How do you play a b8 chord? - Answers

To play a B8 chord on the guitar, you typically use a barre chord shape. Position your index finger across all the strings at the 7th fret to create a barre, then place your ring finger on the 9th fret of the D string (4th string) and your pinky on the 9th fret of the G string (3rd string). Strumming from the A string down will give you the B8 sound. Alternatively, you can also play it as a B major chord with an added 8th (C#) by including the 9th fret on the high E string (1st string).
