→Chords and Position
== Chords and Position ==
I feel like chords should never be strictly tied to position. You will end up using awkward/difficult fingerings, smaller voicings (3 string chords), or even incomplete chords (missing one of the component notes). That said, you shouldn't always gravitate towards open position if you need to play chords. And you probably want to avoid using the same barre chord shape for 2 sequential chords if they are far apart on the fretboard- the huge shift will be quite noticeable and off-putting. Shifting position 1-3 frets up or down should be quite enough to voice most chords nicely.
