Description

In this tutorial you’re going to learn a technique called palm muting for fingerstyle guitar. Palm muting in fingerstyle is used all the time to make the melody stand out more. Muting the bass notes gives you the pitch without the sustain. This allows the upper string melody notes to be heard more clearly.

We'll also at syncopation which is another concept that separates the bass notes from the melody notes one step further. This will also be our next step in thumb independence. Eventually you want your thumb to be able to play a specific pattern while the rest of your fingers play anything else you want simultaneously.
