Bear in mind, though, that fairly few guitarists are used to seeing guitar written as if for piano. Johnny Smith advocated that, because it allows the guitar to be written as it sounds, but he was almost unique. 99% of the relatively few guitarists who can sight read expect to see treble clef, transposed up an octave. Few could play the example given.
One fairly common standard is using an open diamond head to indicate the harmonic, but that is really only useful for octave harmonics. > On May 20, 2016, at 6:35 AM, Andrew Bernard <[email protected]> wrote: > > Not being a guitar player, I am out of my area here, hence my question. > Referring to the attached sample image, my composer uses a circled numeral to > indicate the string number, with superscript roman numerals to indicate the > fret on that string to play for a harmonic.
