I know this has been asked so many times....

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.

but I really need to know the Stone and how to strum it. I have been playing for 2 years and i know mostly all of daves stuff but this song has never caught on to me. I mean I always thought he picked the notes not strum them, and thats what ive been doing. But now its agreevating me and i hear so much more easier to play it strumming. I try and try I have the notes memorized with picking but when I strum it just ends up playing the notes at the wrong time in the wrong way. Ive checked LS video and what not and I still can't get it. any possible suggestions.

p.s. Im new here

for the stone, as well as other songs, such as rapunzel and JTR jam, dave strums, even when he plays single notes, his accuracy at hitting the correct string is remarkable, it takes patience and practice.... you are picking one note, but you have to strum to get the right rhythm for the stone

I still don't have the song down... but download a video of him playing it on 7-10-99, i got it off kazaa... i havent seen LS, but this video has a ton of straight shots at the guitar... im definitly more close than ever...
my two cents... daves strumming hand just goes like a metronome and it seems really loose and relaxed...
