As many of you readers begin to dig deeper into learning jazz guitar harmony and voicings, you'll undoubtedly come across various 9th chords, Maj9,
m9, 9 etc., in your jazz-guitar explorations.
Since these chords pop up time and again, it is important to have a variety of 9th chords under your fingers so that you can bring them into your
comping, chord melody and chord soloing ideas when needed. But this doesnt mean you have to learn a bunch of new chords. You can use previous
knowledge to build great-sounding and authentic jazzy 9th chords.

An Introduction to the Tritone Scale

In todays lesson, well be looking at how you can use rootless 9th
chords to expand your jazz-guitar chord vocabulary without having to
learn any new shapes, simply adapting four-note chords you already have
under your fingers to a new musical situation.
Building 9th Chords With Common Voicings
To begin, lets take a look at four common jazz chords with their 1357 and
rootless 9th-chord voicings.
Notice that each chord pair shares three notes in common: the 3-5-7 of
each chord, but that in the second voicing the 9th has replaced the root,
which is why we call them rootless 9th chords, as they contain no root in
the voicing.
