i got tabs to it, they said you palm mute the strings, but that doesn't sound right, then i read somewhere that you're supposed to scratch it?
anyone know how to do that? |

Age: 35 Gender: Female Posts: 191 | December 30th, 2005 at 01:00am my amp's pretty basic unfortunately...just bass, treble, and middle adjusters, plus volume, and gain...and the boost button. damn...like, it kinda sounds right if you just palm mute it, but it kind of falls flat, you know what i mean? like, it should buzz more or something... |

down the bass, up the trebble. up the gain and up the volume.
strum as if normal but put your palm on and off the strings randomly |

Age: 34 Gender: Male Posts: 1691 | December 30th, 2005 at 06:51am put your fingers on the strings, but dont put any pressure on them, and if it still doesn't sound right, try palm muting it as well. But plenty of overdrive and distortion will help =). |

yeah i just tried it out, and it sounded best, with my bass and treble both around 5, and gain and distortion high, using my treble pick-up (neck position, humbucker) and just resting my fingers on the strings without applying pressure. |

Age: - Gender: - Posts: 15 | February 13th, 2006 at 03:59pm When I learned it I found out if you play the chord and then during the 2 beat gap play the same chord but dont put your fingers on the fret space all the way so its a harmonic sound chord. |
