But then GT had Lisa do the latest version of the Fundamentals courses. And she starts with the B major chord using a different voicing. So, maybe the chord sheet needs to be updated to reflect that.
But in any case, it's just 2 different voicings of the same chord. Did you understand my earlier post about that?
From a practical perspective, as a beginner you can pick either one & it's fine. They are both B major. Eventually if you keep learning and playing guitar you will need to know both anyway for different musical contexts.
Hope that helps!
