dave doesn't palm mute to let you know. he mutes the strings above usually with the very tips of his fingers. it's simple.kcw wrote:all the strings above the desired note mute with your palm....sort of lay it over the strings...then the strings under the desired note lay the finger your making the note with across them. It sounds complicated but it really isnt. Its hard at first but you will get the hang of it.

In granny, i can play that part very very similar without palm muting.. i've never seen dave palm mute.. i've seen him slap the strings with the palm of his hand while strumming.. if that's a palm mute, then eh, then he does..dmbguitar718 wrote:He does it alot more often than just on Granny.Ranting Thespian wrote:dmbguitar718 wrote:dave doesn't palm mute to let you know. he mutes the strings above usually with the very tips of his fingers. it's simple.He does on Granny, after he does the low E run down on the verse, he palm mutes.Dave palm mutes ALOT.
