From that position it would be hard. A 13 chord uses the formula 1 3 5 b7 9 11 13. Since this is a 7 note chord it can not be done on a 6 string. Most will omit the 11. From the root you are using,3rd fret A string, this would be the one I would use...


e----5---
B----3---
G----3---
D----2---
A----3---
E--------

1 3 b7 9 13 (NO 5th) Mixolydian plays well over this

@gs I play in church so I have a bass, piano, organ and keyboard playing along. I let those guys hold down the bass notes and I will play just the higher strings just to fill in. A13=


--7
--7
--6
--5
---
---

7 3 13 9 or for a full sound


--5
--7
--3
--5
--7
--5

1 5 7 3 13 5 (NO 9)
And yes all of the forms above could be used.
