# E augmented Guitar Chord

> The E augmented augmented chord features a raised fifth B♯, creating an ambiguous, floating sound. Its symmetrical structure generates a sense of tension and movement, often used in jazz and cinematic music to enhance harmonic complexity. With G♯ in the bass, this voicing functions as the 1st inversion of E augmented.
