Loving Wings

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.

Loving Wings

Post by bakemm »

Arguably the most beautiful song I have ever heard.

Do you guys play it with a pick? I can't seem to hit the string that clearly that quickly. Any suggestions?

Thanks

i always confuse the bass also.

I second that.

You really don't have to do the alternating 0-2-0-2 on the G string at first. I started out playing it like the second one:
E:---------------------- ----------------------------
B:---------------------- ----------------------------
G:0-2-0-2-0-2-0-2-0- --------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-
D:--------------------- ---------------------------
A:---------------------- ----------------------------
E:---------------------- ----------------------------

It kind of helps make the rythym easier and once you get that, then you can take your finger off once in a while to make it sound better. Hope that made sense.

Yeah, I can do it fairly easy also. It's not like Satellite or the Stone where I have to warm up for half an hour first.

I use a pick and it's quite easy for me. Sometimes I put a capo on *3 and go straight from loving wings to comfortable (john mayer). It's a good transition, I like it.

He is not any worse than any other poster here, and the people who claim he is just don't know what they're talking about. The demonization has gotten ridiculously out of hand.
