Hey guys,
I'm posting this topic in order to get some help concerning dead notes.

I hear dead notes in almost every song I listen to, so I approximately know what it should sound like but I can never get the correct sound.
So what I would like to do is to 'gather' some of your personnal methods (the way you create a dead note), in order to improve or litterally change my dead note technique.

And before I forget, here's how I do: I just push slightly the strings without making em touch the fretboard, then I strum (I always get a crappy sound laugh.gif )

Many thanks

-Kerem

I use a technique i learned from the great and almighty dave mustaine. when you press lightly on the strings, try palm muting as you strum them as well, it dampens the sound further and makes it "Thicker".
