Hi chuckv97
Just checked my computer and I have both Neil Griffith ebooks and I'm pleased to say the same tab is in both books. I purchased these books way back in 2017 and never really got to study them so it looks like I have a busy month ahead of me exploring these publications. Thank you again for your help

Hey, great, Fred. On that Londonderry Air /O Danny Boy tab I changed the "bluesy" notes to regulat diatonic notes. I didn't think they fit in this Celtic tune.

Thanks for the observation. Yes, I spend thousands of hours trying to perfect every tab I put out. I don't possess any special talent other than "hard work and careful listening" to every note. I do put in a few tricks that I guess I don't need but they are simply fun to fool with.
In real playing, the 5th string rings open longer as does the 1st., at least much of the time so I lengthen them in my tabs...To people that have difficult times, you simply have to discipline yourself out of a problem and try to fix it. Thanks again Laurence and I respect what you say and can also do, very much....Jack
"Hard work and careful listening". - words to live by!

Now that you've confirmed it's what Chuck is doing in his excellent Danny Boy/Londonderry Air, I can see it's what I'm doing here, at :04, :017, :47, :51, 1:02, 1:03, and 1:29. (A 9-year-old video I've shared countless times. I promise some new ones are finally coming.)
It's the same thing I described and called triplets in my previous post minus hitting the open fifth immediately after, which only happens depending on context.
I also call it a quick roll or quick arpeggio. TablEdit has a function called "roll" to produce this effect in tab. In practice, if it's not a triplet, it's awfully close, because you're playing three notes in the space of one. But maybe it's a bit quicker than a true triplet because it's just a broken pinch or rolled pinch with no attempt to give the notes equal timing. At least I think there's not.
It definitely rings less with fretted notes than open. I think the trick is to just keep at it. Listen and imitate. You'll get it.
