alexclaber Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Roll your treble off, pan to the neck pickup, turn your amp up, and pluck lightly over the end of the neck. Alternatively, mute the strings with your palm and pluck with your thumb. Play soft and let the amp to the work for that big soft reggae bloom.

DWBass Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 The technique is called 'palm muting'. It's a cool way to play too. Your palm, resting slightly on the strings, cuts the sustain of your notes. www.myspace.com/thefunkfather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
