I'm guessing you are working through Guitar Fundamentals 1. Often when we start learning guitar the first struggle is to make notes & chords sound clearly & cleanly. After we can do that, then we want to clean up our playing with muting!

Essentially, you want to use both hands to mute any and all strings that your do NOT want to make sound. I cover a basic intro to right hand muting in this lesson:

And a basic intro to left hand muting here:

Hope this helps! If you have more questions, please ask. Best of success!
