F maj7(#5) Description

Welcome to our tutorial on the F maj7(#5) chord, an intriguing member of the Augmented Chords family. This chord, defined by the notes F, A, C#, and E, is built from a unique combination of musical intervals: the Root, Major Third, Augmented Fifth, and Major Seventh.

Understanding the construction of this chord requires a grasp of music theory, particularly the concept of fretboard intervals. In the F maj7(#5), the intervals are 1, 3, #5, and 7, representing the Root, Major Third, Augmented Fifth, and Major Seventh respectively.
