When multiple instruments play together in a band, it becomes important to create sonic space for each instrument. Since the bass is a low instrument, it doesn't often share space with other instruments (except the low end of the keys). But what about when you have more than one guitar, for example, an acoustic and an electric, or a rhythm and lead? Did you know you can also play it like this? By using these different voices for the same chord, both guitars can play at the same time without competing with each other. You’ll be surprised at how much you’ll be able to distinguish between the two guitars when each plays a substitute chord. Here are some other chord variations you can try. 
Substituting Alternate Chords
In addition to using a capo with transposed chords, you may want to consider substituting several alternative chords. You probably play a G like this... 
A
C
D
Do you use any other substitute chords? Recommend them in your comment below.
