Rootless 3-Note Shells

The Shell II voicing of C7sus4 stacks Bb, D and F from the bottom up: the minor 7th, 9th and 4th of the chord. It leaves out the root, C, for the left hand or the bass player to take.

It's one of the Rootless 3-Note Shells voicings: three-note rootless voicings: the 3rd and 7th with one more tone, played over the root. The other for C7sus4 is Shell I.
