Rootless 3-Note Shells

The Shell II voicing of C#maj7 stacks B#, E# and G# from the bottom up: the major 7th, major 3rd and 5th 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 C#maj7 is Shell I.
