Breaking the 3rd at the B string means having the E string above it, moving back to the 4th break of the other strings.

And that creates the magnificence of the modern guitar's shimmer in chording.

It is also perhaps the reason that the guitar became so accessible to so many, learn a few simple chord patterns "by the dots" and yield an almost instant gratification in the resulting sound.

I've said this before on these forums, time to repeat it, "The guitar is singular in its ability to allow many to make what harmonic sounds quickly that any other instrument requires much more time, study and practice to accomplish."

Something else I've mentioned before:

"The guitar is extremely easy to learn how to play the basics, chords and strumming, but is also extremely difficult to continue on from that standpoint and actually master."
