Banjo Esus2 chord (C Tuning)E suspended 2nd on the 5-string banjo: 4 4 0 4, and 3 more shapes

Frets, string 4 to string 1: 4 4 0 4 (open position)

1. String 4 (C): 4th fret, index finger, E
2. String 3 (G): 4th fret, middle finger, B
3. String 2 (B): open, B
4. String 1 (D): 4th fret, ring finger, F♯
5. String 5, the short g: open, G, not in the chord

Sounds: E B B F♯  ·  Esus2 is E, F♯, B (1 · 2 · 5)

The 5th string: the short g rubs against the F♯ in this shape, a semitone away: some players let it ring, some skip it.

C Tuning tuning: gCGBD, the short 5th string first, then strings 4 to 1.
