What is a voicing?
A voicing is one specific way to play a chord on the neck. Same chord, different shape, different position, different feel.
Why are there so many voicings for one chord?
A single chord can be played dozens of ways on the neck — different positions, different string subsets, different inversions. Fretscape shows them all so you can pick the one that fits.
