Fingernails on Vibrating Strings
The nails of either hand can produce a buzz if applied lightly to a vibrating string.
If a continuous buzz is desired then care must be taken to not stop the string vibrating. However, a transition from open string to buzz to choked pitch can be achieved by gradually increasing the pressure with the nail. Dynamic Range: pp-ff Difficulty: 1-2 Special Notes: Can also be performed with bow wood/ bow screw. |
