I don't know how to ask the question yet, but I am going to try.
Why do so many beginners and intermediate songs ignore the G-string? Especially fingerstyle.
I did some testing and it looks like it can play many of the same notes the A-sting can play. Fret4 on G sounds a lot like fret 2 on A. I didn't try the tuner to double check yet, but they seem pretty close.
This is the part i have trouble describing. When we play one note on one string, then a new note on the next string, the first note sings a little bit. But if we play several notes on the same string in a row, changing fretting each time, the note before goes quet to make room for the next note.
I think the word is related to a bell tower.
Example. The song says play the following frets on A string. 7 4 2 0 2 4 0. It's pretty but, the note dies as soon as the next one is ready.
Why not play the two 2 notes on the G string (g string fret 4)? It takes less fancy fret work and then the notes can sing to eachother?
Or is this not allowed?
Bonus points if you can rephrase the question in an easy to understand way.
