that one is a minor.. leaving out the 8th would give you a.. well.. something else.. ;)
you gotta change the 8 to a 9 to make it the E major chord in the A shape..

e---7----
B---9----
G---9----
D---9----
A---7----
E---x----

Seems I also learned something here today smile.gif

Mayby a bit offtopic question, but just to know I got it right this time :
E-shape minor :
e---7----
B---7----
G---8----
D---9----
A---9----
E---7----

E-shape major :
e---7----
B---7----
G---7----
D---9----
A---9----
E---7----

A-shape minor :
e---7----
B---8----
G---9----
D---9----
A---7----
E---x----

A-shape major :
e---7----
B---9----
G---9----
D---9----
A---7----
E---x----


As I understand, the above is correct, right ?
