You can use Upper-structure chords as a great way to get some rich beautiful jazz chords. If you check out especially the chord voicings of pianists like Bill Evans and Herbie Hancock you are going to find a lot of upper structure chords, and especially voicings created with upper structure triads.
On guitar, they can be a bit tricky because we have to construct our own voicings rather than rely on systems like drop2 or shell voicings. But they are often beautiful 4-5 note voicings and making your own chords like this is both fun and good for both theory and fretboard knowledge.
In this video, I will go over four examples of voicing sets and talk about how you can make your own and explore the sounds and your guitar neck.
