Guitar slides
Unlike glissandos, slides may go from an imprecise point of the fretboard to a specific fret. A
good way to do that is to add a grace hidden note before the note which is actually played, as
demonstrated in the following example.
%% Hide fret number: useful to draw slide into/from a casual point of
%% the fretboard.
hideFretNumber = {
\once \override TabNoteHead #'transparent = ##t
\once \override NoteHead #'transparent = ##t
\once \override Stem #'transparent = ##t
\once \override Flag #'transparent = ##t
\once \override NoteHead #'no-ledgers = ##t
\once \override Glissando #'(bound-details left padding) = #0.3
}
music= \relative c' {
\grace { \hideFretNumber d8\2 \glissando s2 } g2\2
\grace { \hideFretNumber g8\2 \glissando s2 } d2 |
