I don't know... 3rd base" keep uke'in' Last edited: Sep 26, 2013

D aug would actually signify an Augmented D chord... sort of the opposite of a diminished chord. A diminished triad consists of two minor thirds. An augmented triad is two major thirds. You may also see it annotated using a plus sign - D+
