Check your action? It might be a bit lower than all the others so your palm mute can't reach the string.

when you want to mute that one ...i always stretch the pinky..this automatically gives you a better mute. Well it works for me.

I always try to place my palm a bit more towards the e string when sliding it across the bridge
I will try to demonstrate it in a video for a nice exercise I am having in mind for ya - it is actually the muted alternate picked version of the last phrases in this lesson: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Antoni...nter-Arpeggios/ see part 8 and in the mean time I will prepare the vid |

I mute the higher strings is using my left hand fingers. Here I took some pics to show it. If you look carefully the pics, you will notice that I slightly mute the higher strings with my first finger. Most of the times I use my finger as a bare to mute the strings that I'm not playing. Let me know if its clear in the pics!

Well, regarding palm muting, change the position of my mind and try to use the same part of my palm that I use when I mute the lower strings.Could you share a video or pic of you trying to do it? -------------------- My lessons
