This is the principle behind barre chords, but in that case you use your index finger to barre all six strings and become the nut while you move whole six-string shapes behind it. But you don't need to use all the notes of chords. Very often, you can use just three or four strings. This makes it much easier to find new positions for chords, since barring is always the most difficult and uncomfortable aspect of playing chords. |
