Someone gave me this chord, x2323x, and called it Bm7b5. Which fits my understanding of what a minor 7th chord would be, the major triad (the 3rd flatted and a flatted 7th added), plus here the 5th is flatted. So in this case, B D F A. Chordie is showing it this way, 124231, so with an F#. If you click on the chord to get alternative ways to play it, the F is used, not the F#. So, I guess it's just a mistake? But anyway, even if it was 123231, how would that be possible to play? Would you barre the first fret straight across and the second fret from the 5th string and then use the 3rd and 4th fingers for the F and the D on the 3rd fret?
Also, I think it sounds nice if the high E is played open, x2323O, So would that be Bmin7b5sus4? Ok, I know it doesn't really matter what the names of the chords are, but I like knowing.
Thanks
