As a jazz player, I basically use only three or four note chords on the top strings - otherwise I get all muddy when I interfer with the bass notes. I reccomend the "Jazz guitar chord bible" if you like these types of chords - they can really help you, if you're looking for new ways to play progressions.
There are only two important things in life - There's music and theres girls, not necessarily in that order....
