I've never really found a situation where third intervals over the root sound anything but muddy on the low end. Here are my voicings for first position G chords:

3 x 0 0 0 3
3 x 0 0 3 3
x 2 0 0 0 3
x 2 0 0 3 3

Added voicing for the fifth as the root:

x 5 x 4 x 3
x 5 5 4 x 3
x 5 x 4 3 3

...and so on, depending on the tonal flow of the backing. Context suggests voicings once you've gotten past strumming I/IV/V.
Once you progress to picking rather than strumming, you get to "take your pick" of more interesting voicings and flow.
