The small detail I show you in this video is disregarded by 99% of guitar players, but I find this can be huge to make decisions regarding the emotional impact of your song and your chords. 

It's even truer in ambient guitar music, as our chords are the centerpiece of our looping creations. 

That little detail is the timbre of your guitar's strings.

Some chord can be played identically at several places on the fretboard. And those places do not sound the same. Generally, the open and thinner strings sound more bright and piercing. The bigger strings sound more dark and intimate. 

You have to take this timbre technique to your advantage for maximum emotional impact in your chord progressions.

As always, thanks a lot for watching and leave a big like if you found this useful!
