Palm Muting Tips (Better Palm Muting in 60 Secs)

These palm muting tips will help you to power up your palm muting technique and get those chunky power chord riffs sounding awesome and heavy...like you hear in music by Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera and other great metal bands. This guitar technique can take a little practice to get right, but by following the palm muting tips in this lesson you'll be able to avoid some of the most common mistakes players make.

I'm muting an E5 chord in this lesson. Hand position is important when palm muting chords. Too far back near the bridge, or too far forward and your palm muting won't hit the spot! Aim to pick at around the base of the neck pickup in your guitar, this will probably put your hand in the right sort of area. Keep your palm muting hand soft and relaxed, we don't want to push down on the strings. Try muting hard, then soft and switch between them. This will help you learn to feel the best level of pressure/relaxation to get the sound you like. Good luck!
