: I agree. This is commonly taught to most guitar learners at an early stage as part of general picking techniques. There is hardly any need for a separate article. Additionally, a link is found at [[Shred guitar]], which implies string skipping is a very advanced technique, which it certainly is not. [[User:64.194.250.99|64.194.250.99]]

Could do with being a bit more formal really. I would but I came here to find out what it is, so I'm not exactly the best person to do it :p

I cleaned it up and added lots of content, but retained (after some minor editing) the original statement "An example of string skipping would be doing a bend on the 7th fret of the G string and then jumping to the 8th fret of the E string. Another way this technique works is when playing a thrash riff, and chugging open E's, and go to strings E, B, G, or D to play extra notes in your riff." Somebody needs to verify this.

Article existence not justified

This article has little argument to justify its existence as a notably distinct technique rather than merely part and parcel of basic plectrum technique. I'll wait for comments before I request its deletion. RichardJ Christie 00:49, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. This is commonly taught to most guitar learners at an early stage as part of general picking techniques. There is hardly any need for a separate article. Additionally, a link is found at Shred guitar, which implies string skipping is a very advanced technique, which it certainly is not. 64.194.250.99 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.194.250.99 (talk) 19:29, August 30, 2007 (UTC)
