Yup 🙂
Yes - but in theory the above tab means don't play any strings whilst muting A,D,G & B......
So rather a quiet piece of tab.....
^^^ Lol.
Maybe some humming is in order?
My understanding is strike the strings whilst muting to give a percussive sound or 'ghost' notes
its from the opening strums of the verves sonnet, says 2 c chords the the above, to another c.
c-c-x-c
Had a listen, it is a 'ghost' strum. In this instance it is played by applying the edge of the palm of your strumming hand to the strings as you strum (further in than a palm mute) to give a percussive effect.
cheers guitarhero, will keep practicing!!!
having listened do you think those initial strums go, down up down up?
or down, down, up down?
I would go down up down up. No matter what I'm strumming I usually maintain a steady down up pattern in either an 8th note or 16 note pattern, striking the strings when required or passing over if not. This helps me maintain a steady rhythm.
