G m(maj7)add13 — Dobro

No bar position in GBDGBD spells G m(maj7)add13.

G m(maj7)add13 is G – A# – D – E – F#, and no bar position on the dobro's GBDGBD strings sounds all of it — not straight across any fret, not on any short slant.

When a tune calls it anyway, the dobro plays the part of the chord a bar can reach, or a single-string line through it, and leaves the guitar and the mandolin to carry the rest. That is ordinary work for this seat, not a failure of it, and nothing is drawn here because a grip the bar cannot hold would be a lie.

G is the I of G and the IV of D, so the caller will still count it — the seat just answers it with fewer strings.
