Any idea of what Tim uses as the background loop on Mercy Street? I can't figure it out...or anything close to it.

I've actually been tooling around with this recently...

While in Drop D, obivously,

d-----12---7---5-
a---12----7---5--
d-12-----7---5---

All HARMONICS.

If it isn't that, it's something like that.

Any chance you know the scale for the soloing?

(Oh, and can you play it for me too? )

Just takes practice to slap like that. I'm just about at the point where I can slap specific strings if I want, and I've built up some speed too...

As for the harmonic part, I like:

d-----7-----5---
a---7-----5-----
d-7-----5-----5-

...but it doesn't really matter exactly how its done, it's just filler for the background.
