== Application to Guitar ==
For guitar, we are more limited than if each voice were played by its own instrument, or has the ability to play any combination of notes simultaneously. For practicality's sake, we may not be able to finger what strict voice leading determines is the proper chord voicing to use.
=== Basic Guidelines ===
* Try to use the same or close positions.
* Try to reuse common notes.
* Where necessary, use inversions.
* Make sure the leading tone resolves up to the tonic where applicable.
* When shifting positions, try to ensure the current and destination chords use the same or near same number of notes. Don't add or lose voices in the shift.
