@guibred it helps to mute the overly bright sound you get when playing new strings makes them sound like 3 days old

@prepre73 Antoine Dufour mentioned it you strum hard then mute the strings suddenly you can hear a faint ringing, so it also dampens that.

May you please comment about the alternat tuning. Do you plan to share the tab of this song to? I'm a begginner in guitar playing, but i'm a fan of this song, and playing this could be a very high target for me to achieve!

Congrats for the wonderful and impressive performance.
