Grey Street Help Please :)

So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

I've also found this one to be the best one. This is what I usually use, and since it's a real chord, it's pretty easy to switch to. By real I mean standard. I usually do'nt play the high E-2 though, because I've noticed dave usually doesn't play much of the high strings in his rhythm guitar parts. So I play x2443x. (bottom to top)

I usually don't play the high E either. It sounds fine without, so I don't think it's worth the effort. ;)
