Find identity with bass inversions

This is the most relative place I could find to post a guitar lesson. Hope its ok to be here. If not could someone let me know where I need to be. When I sisgned up it stated this place was a guitar forum but don't see much on the subject. Any way hope this info is helpful to all guitarists

Bass inversions are one of the most popular techniques used in todays genres. Many times Minor chords and 11ths among others will be mistaken for bass inversions. For ex a 4/5 sounds much like a 511 chord and in most cases is used in place of 11ths to create smoother resolution to the tonic. Minor 7th chords can be smoothed out by adding a bass inversion. There are many more examples but get ahead of the game by learning bass inversions. They can transform a common diatonic piece into a masterpiece thus defining your identity.. Lesson for the day hope this helps
