About Gmaj9/B

Gmaj9/B is G Maj 9 with B as the lowest note. This is the 1st inversion of the chord — the same notes as G Maj 9 (G, B, D, F#, A), but voiced so that B sits in the bass. Slash chords create a smoother bass line movement and are common in chord progressions where the bass walks stepwise.
