[tokarev445]

The "malf" is also known as the left-handed flam, wherein the left hand provides the accent after the right hand provides the grace note. At least that's what I remember; they never explain any of this on Expert Village videos :P

Double stops should be played with both hands at the same height... :[

[iplaydatsnurdrum]

exactly. malf's are not wrong at all unless are you are tryin to play a flam. haha I love how this guy was trying to play a flam, played the two notes too close together and made an example of a double stop out of it. real pro right there.

[dtgodportnoy]

who said malfs are wrong? theyre just a different rudiment

[quinker]

@dtgodportnoy malfs aren't a rudiment.

[pbkblackbelt]
