So, if you're playing a chord progression that's E Major, you can play a C# minor scale over it...

But yeah, sus2 chords lack the all important third as dvenetian says...

Ren, I think you hit the nail on the head!!!! Great example. One Question, in your progressions that incorporate using sus chords, do you find the need to resolve them, or is it just me????
