What this chord will take

From the extension list in the Technique Handbook (p. 49). Brass means it's in the voicing right now.

B string

Default sits in the root's fret; move within two frets of it either way. The 6R dominant's 13 starts two frets above the root's fret, so its walk down runs 13 → #5 → 5 → #11 → 11.

E string

Default sits in the root's fret. Move it up two or down one.
