ok, I was referring to "classical" guitar where often /muted/ or /dampened/
notes are written with the the cross note head - the technique to play it is
palm muting which obviously is notated differently in LP.

another type where cross head notes are used is the /tambora/ where you hit
the strings near or on the bridge.

so I assume we were referring to different things - sorry if I trod on
somebody's foot.
