mentalextra Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 ........ play consecutive notes on the same fret but different strings. I am assuming that it would be to bridge the strings. Example: A little bit of "black velvet" after we play 2 open E we have the next phrase at fret 5 and 4; what would be the correct finger positioning. |————————————————————————| |—————5———5—4———4—2——————| |———————5—————4—————2————| |—0—0—————————————————3——| Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeFRC Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 depends how fast the song is and how the notes have sound? I wouldn't bridge them myself, one you have less control on when the first note ends and secondly it won't be as natural a move to go from barring to moving down the neck afterwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mentalextra Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) Thats the problem. Control. So how would you play that little bit. Its a fretless so if I try and wedge my fingers I will get different intonation This is the song the phrase is about 23s in!

Bilbo Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I would bridge it with one finger and work on the intonation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lobematt Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I've not played this tune before but I'd probably tackle it something like this... http://youtu.be/QY0nq8aHQKQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
