Rootless 3-Note Shells

The Shell II voicing of A6 stacks F#, B and E from the bottom up: the 6th, 9th and 5th of the chord. It leaves out the root, A, 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 A6 is Shell I.
