Chord & FretHarmonic field of F# major on cavaquinho
F# major: F# – G# – A# – B – C# – D# – E#. In the shapes below, the tonic opens with the bass on F#. On the cavaquinho, four steel strings tuned D–G–B–D pack the chord into a small, bright space — every finger counts. Its four steel strings give a bright, sharp attack that cuts through the mix and drives the beat.
These are the first positions of every degree of F# major on cavaquinho. In Chord & Fret, the Circle of Fifths opens the full field — every degree with all its positions, audio and the key's secondary dominants. Open in Chord & Fret →
