Title: Picking help. Post by: Andy-k on June 16, 2004, 02:21:17 PM How do I play this? How is it possible to "jump" over a string with the pick, if you know what I mean?

Post by: AdZ on June 16, 2004, 02:32:53 PM Put your index (1st) finger on the lowest E string second fret, then do the rest as it makes sense to you, make sure that your index finger mutes the A string so it doesn't sound when it's played and just play it :)
Hope that helped Title: Re:Picking help. Post by: Andy-k on June 16, 2004, 03:12:20 PM Thank you.
Title: Re:Picking help. Post by: Miz on June 16, 2004, 04:13:45 PM You could also play the bottom F# with you thumb and mute the A string with your thumb as well.
Title: Re:Picking help. Post by: Oddy on June 17, 2004, 01:35:05 AM Another alternative is to use some hybrid picking. Pick the f# with your pick and the other notes with your remaining fingers. You'll need some nails though and it takes a while to get the volume from each equal.
But from looking at that chord by any chance are you learning AC/DC's highway to hell? If so just mute the damn A string it makes a better sound. Title: Re:Picking help.

Quote Yes it is from AC/DC's Higway To Hell. :) But I'm no learning that. It was just an example. I took it from a tab-book. |
