About E augmented
The notes of E augmented are E (root), G# (major third) and B# (augmented fifth). In scale degrees above the root, the formula is 1 – 3 – #5. Its augmented fifth gives it a restless, mysterious sound, and because it is symmetrical the same chord repeats every four semitones.
E augmented has no standard open shape in the CAGED system, so its 47 voicings are sorted only by difficulty and position on the neck.
