Hey hey...just a quick question as to Tim's RH technique in Hopeful Heresy.
On this part:
e---------------------------------------------------
B-------3----3-X---3----3--3/5-----1-X----1-------3-
G---2p0------0-X---0----0--0-------2-X----2---2p0---
D--------------X---------------------X--------------
A------------2-X---2---------------3-X----3---------
E---------3------3----3---------1------1------------
when he slides 3/5, what does he do with his RH? On a few D&T recordings I've heard, he hits that D (3rd fret) three times pretty fast, and on the third attack he slides. I can't really tell if he's got a really really fast plucking finger, or if he uses two/three fingers like a bassist would, or if he uses his thumb in there once or twice. The thumb seems easiest for me because I play a lot of bass, but I'm having trouble keeping the volume and tone similar with the rest of the notes.
I hope that makes sense; if no one gets what I said I can re-explain it lol...thanks guys!
