- Db Dominant 7
Db Dominant b13, written Db7b13, is built from Db, F, Ab, Cb and A: the root, major 3rd, 5th, minor 7th and flat 13th.
Its 3rd and 7th, F and Cb, are its guide tones: they say what kind of chord it is, so voicings are built around them and the root is often left to the bass. G7, a tritone away, has the same two notes the other way up, so it can stand in for Db7b13 as its tritone substitute.
