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

    I guess some people are pickier than others about tuning, probably why I don’t play floating trem guitars much any more.

      I certainly respect a good ear for tuning, it really sucks when the people you’re playing with both don’t have a good ear, and refuse to acknowledge what everyone around them is saying about it. Just between my Floyd Rose bridge and regular Strat/PRS style bridges, I’ve never palm muted my way out of tune. And I’ve definitely gone out of tune by using those floating bridges so it’s not a lack of awareness.

        I just did a little experiment for science. Washburn N4 with a Kahler floating abomination. It’s hard to get a good read on the muted notes for obvious reasons but they’re roughly 5-10 cents sharp on the low E. It’s not much, especially for a beginner but a beginner might use more pressure than I am.
