Well, that's what I said below - I did build them for
a comprehensive list. I searched for a total list
because I kept stumbling upon a new chord that wasn't
in my master List." For example a 7sus b9 - that is
one bad-ass chord, a chord with a bad attitude.

"If you want anything done right - do it yourself."

I built every chord imaginable from the major scale,
harmonic & melodic minor scales, and half-whole
diminished scale - totally got obsessive-compulsive. I
then mapped everyone of them out on fretboard diagrams
I have so that I could find new closed voicings.

I'm in the process of mapping out every open chord
with at least 2 notes in it from standard E tuning -
EADGBE - or Em11.

I have also made my own chords to fit my songs. I love
finding a "new" chord that sounds real unique.
