I guess if you're almost solely playing constant 8th notes with a thick dirty sound then you're better off going up the neck rather than onto a thinner string and the top frets on the D-string go plenty high enough for that kind of playing. One less string to mute as well. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peted Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 [quote name='tauzero' post='315934' date='Oct 27 2008, 04:05 PM']But a piano only has 10-note polyphony unless you're from Norfolk.[/quote] The sustain pedal on a piano lets you have far more than 10 note polyphony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
