Thanks, applied.

That said, are you certain that you didn't screw up the \\relative
line?  The notes look awfully low, but I'm not a guitarist so I could
be wrong.
No, the low notes are correct - the palm mute technique works
best on the lowest strings where you can fine-tune the sound
of the muted strings.
(Hehe, with a seven-string axe tuned to drop a we even got
seven halftone steps lower - and we don't smile on MTV :-)
Also, we generally try to keep the output down to one line.  Does the
second bar really add anything to the example?  Could you condense the
example down to 3 bars instead of 4?
Sorry, I compiled the stuff separately first and the output had just
one line, and I didn't check the notation output properly.
I'm not too fussed since this is just in NR 2.4 so only guitarists
will be looking at it, but you might want to double-check these
things.
Thanks for your remarks!

Marc
