EXPERIENCING A CREATIVE RUT? IT MIGHT BE A SIMPLE CASE

- Joshua M. Miller

MOLLY TUTTLE WANTS every note she plays to have the most impact. That often means using open strings. “I like it because the notes really ring out,” Tuttle says. “Sometimes I use open strings as a way to transition from down the neck to up the neck. I might throw in an open string to have time to move my hands to a new position. I really like to cross-pick, and open strings create this really pretty ringing of the notes over each other.”
