How to play with your teeth.

first of all, think twice about really doing it, because your teeth _will_ get damaged.

first of all, keep youre eyes closed, if the string would burst, you dont want all the tension to be released in youre eyes, trust me.

lean the left side of the guitar body to youre shoulder.
(sorry if ive gotten left and right wrong :) im swedish u know)

and bend youre head to the right side, so youre left foreteeth is pretty much like a pick.

this point hit the string.

this might save you some pain.

its pretty simple really, just play something like smoke on the water on the top E

-0-3-5--

practice it first on a acoustic guitar with thoose soft strings and your teeth wont get as damaged as with a elecric.

a bit more advanced: a piece from yngwie malmsteens black star (u can see him playing it with his teeth in the hot licks video)

this on the top E

if u wanna do it even harder try tremolo picking with the teeth.

good luck and i hope this helped you.
