How to Palm Mute on a Dulcimer or Guitar

It's time for another technique tips sort of video. Palm muting is a fun and sound-enhancing right hand every player should have available. It'll add a new layer of dynamics and tonal color to your playing, and once you hear how it works you'll probably start noticing it all over your favorite recordings!

I leaned on Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle" and Dolly's iconic "Jolene" as helpful (I hope!) examples.

As with all the videos on this channel, I welcome your feedback in the comments, ESPECIALLY since these technique videos are even more tricky to communicate when I can't see if they're connecting. So please comment whether I left holes that merit another video, or if it was helpful, etc. It's really encouraging to hear from you fine folks. ;-)
