I'm definitely not going to abandon anything. I enjoy playing bass too, so I want to get one.

And I think I get what you're saying. It's pretty much like a chord variation? That's what I've called it at least. When I started learning some piano I realized there were a lot of uses of chord variations. I'm pretty sure the Lennon song "imagine" uses a few variations. It's like you're playing the same notes of the chord, just changing the shape up a bit.

If you're jamming with someone, you can play the same chords as them and spice things up by doing some variations, or voicings.

Is that what you mean by voicings? It seems Like that's what you're saying, I've just always referred to it as variations.
