To give you an idea, here is how I have dealt with variations.
With Heartbeat I may play the same songs on guitar or bass depending on who is available, (we might be a 4 or 5 piece).
I've used Collection to associate any piece with the bands I play that arrangement with, and though I haven't entirely cleaned up, I try and use the Key field for when I have multiple keys with different bands (or the same band if the singer varies) and the instrument. Note I have altered the presentation to highlight the instrument (custom field) so it all fits together. So to put together a song list, I get a truncated version by band collection and instrument, which might be about 100 songs, which is quite manageable against a set list of say 35 songs. Do You Love Me?, for example, use the same chord sheet for bass and guitar because actually I just know it on bass and really I'm just noting my settings.
I've not crossed the bridge of sharing with other band members but I think you would need to assign different keys or versions to different song numbers so only matching key and version can come up.
