    In my experience what you taught was good however more detail and alternate angles and closeups would benefit the lesson greatly Marty.

  • @LeeFKoch
    @LeeFKoch Před rokem

    I know this video is pretty old, but I think it's really important, especially for newbies like me.
    I've been playing acoustic guitar for 30 years, and only just started electric guitar last year. String muting is one of the most vital techniques to master (I am still struggling with it), especially for playing rhythm guitar, yet it (and rhythm guitar for that matter) hardly gets any attention. So, thanks, Marty!

    @stephenmcconnell7868 Před 6 lety

    Thanks for this. I have tons of your old video courses, but they didn't cover this. As I move from acoustic to electric guitar (I have become a DeadHead) and trying to play like Bob Weir, I find that when I dig in to rhythm unwanted strings ring out.... (My acoustic playing doesn't do that). These techniques solve SO many problems I'm having in my transition. I am really having trouble with Triads on the 2,3 & 4 strings. Muting the strings above and muting the 1 string. Lots of work to do.

    It would be MOST BENEFICIAL if we could see WHEN AND WHERE your right and left hand fingers and palm areas were ACTUALLY TOUCHING THE STRINGS AS WELL AS RIGHT HAND PLACEMENT ON THE FRETBOARD. This skill is as difficult one to develop and VERY FRUSTRATING for many trying to learn it. Any chance of another such video covering the afore mentioned???

  • @scottglass2218
    @scottglass2218 Před 2 lety +1

    Hey Marty, first thanks love your videos. I was wondering if loosening your grip on the pick is a good way to get the right sound when muting strings. I'm learning Feels Like Teen Spirit and the fast strumming is making the muted strings not sound well like it does on your tutorial video. Are you also palm muting?
