Muting can be done should play a regular guitar but the strings are touched by your right hand so that sound does not have a long tone, but sounds like ".. beb beb beb .. ..". pressure tap your right hand (little finger side) must not be too deep and not too too deep on the surface because if the tone would not spend too much on the surface will be at risk while eliminating mutingnya nature. most of these techniques used in playing rock melodies with a fast tempo.
Now, use the following pattern to practice to produce good muting
