The song opens with a discordant string harmony, [76] followed by Yorke's strummed D ninth chord acoustic guitar, [77] set against B ♭ string tuning that creates a dissonance shifting between D major and F ♯ minor. [76] O'Brien's use of reverb and delay effects on guitar forms a melody that drifts between the A and E chords. [77]
Playing on heavier gauge strings can damage un-coated nails: finger picking is more suited to nylon strings or lighter gauge steel strings (this does not apply to fingerpicks). Using a pick can significantly reduce damage to fingers when playing for long periods of time on a steel string guitar. Some styles of music are easier to play with a pick.
String skipping is a method of achieving a guitar sound that is different from more traditional solo riff styles. In more traditional styles, the guitarist will often play several notes on one string, then move to the adjacent one, improvising on the fretboard in a melodically linear manner.
New standard tuning (NST) is an alternative tuning for the guitar that approximates all-fifths tuning.The guitar's strings are assigned the notes C2-G2-D3-A3-E4-G4 (from lowest to highest); the five lowest open strings are each tuned to an interval of a perfect fifth {(C,G),(G,D),(D,A),(A,E)}; the two highest strings are a minor third apart (E,G).
C tuning is a type of guitar tuning. The strings of the guitar are tuned two whole steps lower than standard tuning. The resulting notes can be described most commonly as C-F-A♯-D♯-G-C or C-F-B♭-E♭-G-C. This is not to be confused with C ♯ tuning, which is one and one half steps lower than standard tuning.
Drop C tuning (CGCFAD) Drop C tuning (CGCFAD) (listen) Drop C tuning is an alternative guitar tuning where at least one string has been lowered to a C, but most commonly refers to CGCFAD, which can be described as D tuning with a 6th string dropped to C, or drop D tuning transposed down a whole step.
[1] [4] The note layouts on the fretboard of a guitar tuned in perfect 4ths, with arrows that show where the same note continues on a higher-pitched string. All adjacent strings have the same interval and repeat at the 5th fret, unlike standard guitar tuning which has an inconsistency between the 2nd and 3rd strings.
