Hello everybody
So i heard people do this thing called palm muting and it sounds awesom I want to learn. I tried it with pick.
Downstrum is ok i can do it but whats with the up strum? Is it possible or is there a technique to up strum while palm muting or guitarist dont do that and im just dumb
The extra question is about tuning. When I tune my guitar. Sometimes the tuner show that the tune is almost half a tune higher than it should be.
When the guitar used or after used the strings stretch right so the tune should be lower not higher right? So why is it higher? Its just poking me why this happen
Try using part of your wrist to mute. Sometimes you gotta modify the mute to get the desired effect.
I don’t know what kind of guitar you have, but cheaper guitars tend to have crappy tuners. I’ve noticed it’s much harder to keep a guitar in time with a guitar with bad tuners. Is it electric or or acoustic?
Its acoustic with steal string and a big body. Its my first ever guitar.
Okay. So when it comes to muting strings there are quite a few videos on YouTube that can explain it better than I can. Probably. All that I can say is that you need to experiment with your wrist and your palm as far as that goes.
Like I said before, having a good tuner (like one that you would clip on to your headstock that’s powered by a small battery), decent strings, and a decent guitar is going to make quite a bit of difference. I know there are a lot of cheap ass guitars out there being sold for about $100 or less. But the truth is if you just spend the money and get around a $300 guitar, it will make a world of difference.
I wanted a better guitar. But I didn’t have the money. Now I don’t want to buy becausi really like it.
