Baug

B Augmented · 4 fingerings
The augmented triad raises the fifth by a semitone, stacking two major thirds so that Baug is symmetrical and restless. Because every inversion is another augmented triad, one shape serves three roots. You'll hear it in jazz, in the dramatic turnarounds of 1960s pop, and anywhere a writer wants a chord to feel like it's rising.
