"Drop 2" is a voicing technique used by many arrangers to allow certain notes to fit into registers that were better suited for the instruments they were writing for. Usually that meant a horn section. It just so happens that guitarists like these because they lay so comfortably on the guitar and are very easy to alter to make more advanced sounding voicings.<br><br>Hope that helps. Jon,
No, these voicings aren't all in 2nd inversion. “Drop 2″ is a voicing technique used by many arrangers to allow certain notes to fit into registers that were better suited for the instruments they were writing for. Usually that meant a horn section. It just so happens that guitarists like these because they lay so comfortably on the guitar and are very easy to alter to make more advanced sounding voicings.

Hope that helps.
