I've been working on studying the various forms of "alternate" chords out there, other than just the basics, and how they are constructed. But I've run into a road block on one. A sus13 chord is something I've had trouble finding info on. But I think it's because it may more commonly be referred to as a min9 chord. There seem to be a lot of people on here who understand this shit pretty well, so I figured it might be a better place than most to inquire. So, I'm just wondering if they are in fact that same chord.

the sus13 is not a minor 9, i think u mean a minor sus13, so we will go off of that.

So like an E-9 has an E,G(b3),D(b7),F#(9)
and and E-7sus13 has E,D(b7),G(b10),C(b13)

they are similar chords, but not the same. and it depends on how u voice the chord on exactly how it sounds.

but here is what i was playing.

E-9 E-7susb13

e--- --- |--8--(b13)
b-7- (9) |--8--(b10)
g-7- (b7)|--7--(b7)
d-5- (b3)|--10-(b6)
a-7- (1) |--7--(1)
e--- |-----

hopefully that all comes out right and i did it right, cuz i am a bit tired.

i like to voice 9th chords chords so that the 3rd and the 9th are adjecent. it helps making the move from one chord to another less parallel-like.
