i cant get the thump right... i just hit a note instead and i want it to mute...am i doing something wrong?

[far0n]

@Masturbassest Yeah, you'll just be pressing too hard. It's a very light touch needed with your left hand.

What is this an English Site?

[far0n]

@afterthefox7 Let me guess.... you're American right ?

[Insatium]

when you do the left hand thump, do you already have your hand covering the high string, or is it just a matter of practice? if I take my hand completely off, i tend to play the g string

[far0n]

For the first part of the lesson the g string is muted. The second part you'll see that I start playing fretted popped notes in the same circle of triplets as before.
