cordas soltas
Explanation:
Meu marido é baixista e, segundo ele, uma "open string" é a corda do instrumento que é tocada sem estar pressionada por nenhum dos dedos, ou seja, solta. Essa corda é geralmente a mais grave (por exemplo, a corda E - Mi). Por isso, acho mais cabível traduzir como "cordas soltas".
