A bit of a stretch back in the second position but a fuller voicing if you can manage it. |
This one has the 3 but no root so can sound a little odd, you choose. A common moveable shape though based on the D major in the 3nd position. |
With the root in the bass and the 3rd on top this is your standard minor voicing and another moveable shape. |
Could be a good option for a minor chord if you're up this way |
For a jazzier sound in your minor chords. |
This moveable shape gives a great sounding minor seventh chord, even without the root note. |

The minor chord with the 5 in the bass, taken from the open position Cm chord. |
The 3 and the 6 sound cool together and with the 5 in the bass it is starting to outline an A chord, proceed with caution though. |
It's an 11th position chord because of the position of the first finger but it's based around the A on the 14th fret. |
With the tritone on top this is a good voicing for a seventh chord, it's also a moveable shape that is worth persevering with. |
With the 5 in the bass and the tritone on top this is one of the better options for a 7th chord, a good moveable shape to learn. |
Based on the 2nd position barre chord the b7 note is the open G on top. Note that there is no 3 though so you can't make a tritone and you lose the essence of the 7th chord. An easy shape though and it can still be useful for quick chord changes. |
