Kristofer Dahl16th November 2007This is hilarious Muris
As well as a perfect left hand staccato exercise! Of note - this kind of damping technique is standard for bass players, but for some reason not quite as known among guitarists.
Muris Varajic16th November 2007Thanks Kris
Well spotted tho,bassists use it quite often.
But we are taking it from here!!!!!!! ![]()

krudtaa17th November 2007Cool lesson. really great. thanks.
Muris Varajic17th November 2007You're welcome fellas,enjoy it. ![]()
im sorry but i dont understand how you are muting the string. what did u mean when u said " you remove both finger and string off the fretboard" how do u move a string off the fretboard?
Muris Varajic18th November 2007By releasing pressure with your finger,
but finger still needs to touch the string to do muting.
Hope this helps. ![]()
I'm glad I came into guitar with a couple years on bass only. This stuff is useful.
But I'm still learning this one, that's a fun tune!
Ben N18th November 2007cool ![]()
Tank18th November 2007
What a wonderful piece of music.
The technique works well when strumming chords as well, If you hold down the chords for just as long as you need it, you have more control over the tightness of sound, and rhythm quality. And if you strum with your fingers lightly touching the strings (muted), you get a nice percussive sound.
Muris Varajic18th November 2007Yep
Using staccato over chords might be really cool,specially in high tempo. ![]()
LwShieN5th December 2007ahahahhahaa ..awesome sound muris , reminds me of the carnival ![]()

Muris Varajic1st May 2008Thanks and welcome to GMC! ![]()
Canis24th May 2008Hah, I love this lesson
For some reason, I can totally picture a heavy metal band playing the heaviest of riffing, and then in the middle of it all, they suddenly play this, before returning to the heavy riffing
Thanks for the lesson ^^
Muris Varajic24th May 2008Cheers Canis,glad you like it. ![]()

Muris Varajic30th July 2009Too late for that now. ![]()







This kind of dampening technique is standard for bass players, but for some reason not quite as known among guitarists.After I play the note I slightly remove both finger and the string off the fretboard while still gently touching the string with the finger. That helps to stop ringing of open string.
