It's just a matter of tone. Just playing the root and the 5th and leaving out the octave makes your tone a little darker.
The same works for where you play a chord on the neck too. For example, you might see a lot of metal bands play a C# power chord on the 9th fret of the 6th string instead of the 4th fret on the A string. They are they exactly the same notes but the low E-based chords often sound a bit darker which some bands prefer. Others go for the brighter tones so they might prefer adding the octave/

Personally, I play three-voiced powerchords with the root on the E-string, two-voiced with the root on the A-string and sometimes I add the low fifth to the A-string-voicing...
I just evade using my *flatwound* strings (GBE) for powerchord fundaments because the difference in brightness between a powerchord that uses the G and higher strings to one that does not is pretty...noticeable actually. In other words, powerchords keep confined to the low three strings and fill them out  Fun thing is that you get a little bit of voice leading done by switching inbetween different shapes instead of going parallel movement all the time... Though in riffs, always 2-voiced because it's much easier to change frets quickly. ...so yeah, it's all preference and situationalism. |
