I thought of placing the bottleneck at half-fret position without pressing down. I mean, it's a glissando device, right? > but it sure is possible to "bend" open strings using the tuning heads. That would more be like a permanent change of tuning I think. Depending on the guitar's setup, "bending" beyond the nut may be an option for open strings. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
