open strum for bass

[Razlo7]

are you **** me? Look at ANY metallica song or any song by a thrash band or ANY metal band for that matter. There is a **** load of open strums.

Ok so the guitarists that can play those songs have no idea what they are talking about when they say that open strums never happen, except in chords. K.

um what

^^^
That

[vedicardi]

stupid idea despite that because you literally need tabs to chart correctly if this is added

[aander91]

Open note as sixth fret is the future :) Remember that drums need that six fret as orange cymbal too :)

Nooooooo thank you

Sense will be heard.

I always find that open strum. Isn't exactly charted as open strum, just a lower note.

Say if there was six notes in the bass line it would be

|-0
|-- 0
|-----0
|-------0
|----------0

Rather than something like

0
--0
----0
-------0
----------0--0

If you get what I mean.

Very true. Tabs are completely useless to me because I can't read sheet music, so I couldn't chart bass lines correctly if this idea is added.

frets represent frets, not strings mmkay.

What's that got to do with anything?

The whole thread is a debate on whether or not buttons represent frets or strings.

If it was added people that chart like Puppetz does, and me because of him, would do fine then if you have to have a tab. You people should seriously go check out his tutorial, it makes using tabs the best thing ever, and it makes charting a million times easier imo

I can't see any mentioning of frets, or the notes being for seperate strings. And open strum wouldn't involve holding down a string to a fret, so you're a bit of topic.

I think it was mentioned earlier that fretting from tabs wouldn't with open strums a lot.

Actually what he's saying is true. The thread is saying that only when open string is played in the actual song, it should be fretted. When that's not the case. It's just a sixth fret. Just lower than green rather than higher than orange.

[vedicardi]

having six frets is a terrible idea as well so what's your point

very few songs out of all of the songs out there have tabs is the problem

[aduro]

At least %75 of all internet tabs are flat out incorrect

letting go of the whole neck to play open strum isn't realistic and I have yet to see anyone make a graphic for open strum that doesn't suck
