Currently going through your sweep picking lessons, as well as David Walliman's. I have the coordination between my right and left hands down pretty well, and the speed increases everyday. My question is in regards to how to mute the strings.
From what I understand, you do not want to do a full palm mute with your right hand. Because that would muffle the strings too much. The idea is to lightly mute it with your palm, to prevent excess noise. You do this by placing your right palm on the back part of the bridge. Is that correct?
I seemed to have gotten the technique down pretty well with passive pickups. But when I picked up my ESP (w/EMG 81 bridge), I had to change my technique. Just wanted to verify how to properly mute them!
thanks!
