[Narutogotguts]

@mattjoe952k9 Try to increase your speed and pick them down-down instead of down-up.

Awesome video. Keep going forward.

Just 1 advice. In first 4 minute you dont use left hand and your right hande ( palm muting hand ) is in small screen. You should made if full screen so we could view it more detailed

Thanks for this lesson! This is generally an ignored topic and in most forums will be reduced to a single line like, "use the fleshy underside of your hand to mute". I used to try muting it on the bridge pickup but now I know it's gotta be further back :) Thanks again!

You're a good teacher, dude. You go into several details and you have an interesting teaching method. When I have the time, I'll definetly watch more carefully some of the advanced lessons.

Can this palm muting technique be used for fast blues licks, or would that mess up the bend of the string?

[GuitarLessons365]

generally palm muting is for more rhythmic percussive sounds. so the bending of a string while muting wont really work because you would kill the sustain. but you can get a good enough feel at it to just slightly mute the string but still letting it sustain a bit. the feel gets developed over time. :)

[jrpimpdog]

@GuitarLessons365 Ok thanks. What are some techniques used for playing fast blues licks?

[b44styreraug]

Actually one technique I like to do a lot is to palm mute on my right hand and then fret the notes on my left hand lightly (to produce dead notes). Kick in a tinge of overdrive. And that can allow you to mimic those funk music tones...

first view heeh 5* im not much of a metal person but i use some times that to control the attack and the volume and dinamics anyways 5* carl

[GuitarLessons365]

Yeah palm muting is essential for all styles of guitar for allowing you more control of the sound and feel of the strings. Thanks a bunch for the comment and rating!! :)
