Shape I showed is one of the major shapes. I need You to find another. Both will be major. Temporary leave the minor alone

It's almost correct but...
In the world of harmony (at least looking at the basics of theory...otherwise all is possible) we build harmony with the thirds. When we take very basic combination of 3 notes we get the triads (trójdźwięki). From a definition triad is a sound of 3 notes played at he same time of course we have only 4 types of triads that are most popular - major, minor, diminished and augmented. All those are made of thirds in different variations (simple math - we have 2 types of thirds and we can switch them however we like between those 3 notes of triad). Now here we come with the word "chord". Chord is "at least" 3 notes and most of the chords we now are built form the additional thirds. This is how we get 7th chords. It just another 3rd in the chain, added to the last note of the triad. Now there is a difference between B D F - a triad = 2 x minor third = diminished chord B D F A - a chord (7th chord) = 2 x minor third + 1 x major third (F - A) = half diminished (Bm7b5) So as You can see if we play just those 3 notes we have a pure diminished triad. It becomes halfdiminished only when we add another 3rd from the scale. Now You know what is the difference? Theory is a bit twisted. We learn rules and then we break them but...there is now way to teach it if I just say "everything is possible". Naming the triads an chords depends of the key we play in. Sometimes exactly the same shape oin guitar will have different name. This is because of 5 lines notes notation. In some keys we will not have a C note but we will call it B#...for example ...C# major. Now let's go to the circle of 5ths. Here's a good article: http://www.music-theory-for-musicians.com/...-of-fifths.html Music Theory has much to do with the math. People tried to make patterns to describe some natural music behaviors. C-major opens the circle of 5th's. Now a 5th from C we will have a key with one sharp mark = F# = G major. Then we go one more 5th up and we have D. D major will have the sharp mark from the previous key (G) + one additional - sharp 7th (C#). This is also a reason of sharp order notation in the notes. That's basicly how it works. |

So:
B D# G augmented chord --- 2x major third B D# G A# augmented7 chord --- 2x major third + 1x minor third ? |

Exactly
 Now let's find some cool backing to work on this in real. Do You have any in mind? |
