The position change from the first to the tenth fret remains the same but starts earlier and gives a nice line to the topmost note of the final arpeggiated chord. Ok, just a nitpick ...Now that I was allowed to make a noise again, I checked that version. The basic idea is good. However, the arpeggio becomes redundant: there is no need to strike the notes again. If one did so, one better would restrike the bass note as well, but I think it's better just keeping them all on sustain without further notice.
Yep, absolutely!
Definitely an improvement. I'll just have to cast this into code.Not that hard. Except that with << { \set tieWaitForNote = ##t r8 a' d e f\3~ a\2~ | <f a d>2 } \\ { d,2.~ | d2 } >> r4 the string indication on the first f is not really a mere matter of style any more. So I probably should print it in the score. Which is a nuisance as I suppressed the numbers staff-wide so far.
You may insert a barré indicator for the tenth fret or a bracket for f, a and d to indicate that these three notes have to be fretted with the index finger. On the other side: you use tablature as well, so the information is there, even without explicit string numbers. And even without tablature staff it is implicitly given through the ties – there is no other possibility to play the piece and let the notes sustain as given in the score. Marc But that's probably a similar nuisance since you did not use fingerings nor barré indicators througout the rest of the piece.
