But I'll take Tom's advice and practice all ways.

Thanks guys.]]> Guitar Players Discussion cnev https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/tripletts/#post-78674 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/tripletts/#post-78548 Tue, 07 Dec 2004 01:34:22 +0000
BTW, on chords, there is definitily a difference between the sound of up- and down strokes.]]> Guitar Players Discussion gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/tripletts/#post-78548 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/tripletts/#post-78544 Tue, 07 Dec 2004 00:28:35 +0000
The song I am running across these in is a Led Zep song The Ocean, it's the outro part if anyone's familiar with it.

He's strumming a D chord at the 7th fret and then moveds to the E chord at the ninth and strums tripletts.

I am ashamed to say I haven't played many songs with tripletts in them so I am not very well versed in playing them but I noticed that when I played what I think is eighth notes it sounds pretty close but when I try playing the tripletts with a downstroke on each triplett it doesn't fit as well.

If anyone has a suggestion for playing them in this particualr song I'd love to hear.

Thanks,

It sounds a little choppy when I use a downstroke to start every triplett but it's probably just more practice needed.

Thanks for the advice.]]> Guitar Players Discussion cnev https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/tripletts/#post-78534 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/tripletts/#post-78528 Mon, 06 Dec 2004 21:39:52 +0000
OTOH, some players simply prefer to do DUD on every triplet, as it's easier for them to accent more consistently the first note of each triple.]]> Guitar Players Discussion gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/tripletts/#post-78528 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/tripletts/#post-78524 Mon, 06 Dec 2004 21:32:58 +0000 anyway.
say there's a riff and they're all 8th notes (once again I'm telling you this)
and there's say a hammer-on and pull off, they could speed it up by putting a triplet in there and playing it 1 note faster.
I just read this over..and it makes almost no since...but maybe to you it will
GOOD LUCK!
and maybe someone can put it in to simpler terms.
Later
