Another Holdsworth one...this time from 'Road Games'. Not the hardest example in this thread, but it can be deceptively tricky to get the notes on the top two strings to ring.

hi there!
i used a very stretched chord in one of my song

e-0
b-0
g-8
d-6
a-4
E-2
B-0


alternated with a Bm7

it's a hell of a stretch!

Pretty cool, but I believe on the song, it's played 1 fret up

I bet I could make some of you guys cringe at some of the things I've come up with on my fifths tuned guitar. If you try to play them on a mainly fourths tuned instrument and in their original configurations. They have some truly torturous stretches.

It's R-7-3-13
adding the 9th on the high e string sounds very fusiony too. the good thing about that shape is the fact that the 13 and 9 are adjacent on the two highest strings
