Default Strange Experience on my Guitar Yesterday

If you move all the notes by the same percentage, the chords would
sound the same,,,,

if you move the notes by different percentages, the chord will sound
different


If you the same shape up the neck to a higher fret, you increase all
the note frequencies by the same percentage, so the chord will be
harmonically the same. But you haven't increased the frequencies of
the characteristic sound of the guitar, so it will be timbrally
different.
