Seek Up Help

Unread post by acousticraven » Wed Aug 04, 2004 2:48 pm

Is the Verse to Seek up ( xx7x810 & xx7x8x) picked or strummed? Usually I play along to my dmb cds by ear, but I can hardly hear dave in any seek up version, and all of the L@LC sounds picked but I wasn't sure, any tips will help. Thanks

hit me up on AIM, ill help you out, its hard to explain with words, but i pick the top note then strum the lower ones.

so i do a

pick top note, strumt he bottom, (up down strokes) through once... do that 2 times then pick the top note and strum down once though the lower strings, and switch to the next chord.

Is there a way to make the song sound any more full, maybe its just me cuz im just learning this one but it sounds bare in comparison to L@LC and other versions i hear, obviously it may be cuz im playing alone, but i thought i'd ask, im sure u all know more than I do
