Pat, there are loads of guitar chords with implied notes. That Hendrix chord being one that is notable (pun intended). I look at it this way. If the missing note can be included without changing the character of the phrase, then it is implied. If adding it changes the character of the phrase, then it must remain missing and the name of the chord should reflect that.

Dan, it depends on which fret the G and thin E are depressed. If, as I suspect, they are fingered on the second fret, and if the low E is not played, the chord is a D6.

You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash
