Posted by: Matt_Herd Dec 30 2006, 06:42 PM

Hi, when sweep picking i want to mute the noise the strings after they are played. I have hear that you mute with you thumb? i also hear that you must not put your left hand figers over the top of the fretboard. Is this ture? Anyway how to mute the string noise.

Thanks Matt.

After you play a note you have to take your finger off the string as ur playing the second note and so on. You half to try to have only one note ringing at a time.

I would also try to watch some sweep picking videos at youtube, yo get how to do it.

Hope this helps, Rob

Edit: Heres a good instructional video
