Stay

So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

Are you picking the notes like Dave appears to do on the LS DVD, or strumming/muting like he does on the FF DVD/LiC Video...

i think that the chorus is just strumming, if you can believe it...it is probably one of the most mellow guitar parts dave does, until the F chord on the first fret...there is a slap/strum there...the jam i usually pick the individual notes and strum the ones with more than one note.

Strumming

Unread post by CPTino3001 » Thu Apr 10, 2003 9:04 pm

I thought that's what he was doing, but he seems to pause and miss a few strums here and there...I was just curious...

Thanks for the help...

Oh and the jam part is a little more energetic if I strum it, but the picking sounds fine too...he seems to play it both ways...

yeah, i think when he is jumping around and dancing, he's not even worring about what he's hitting...
