hahah.

Doctor is pretty much right it's all in the wrist. Typical Ska riff starts with a downstroke stop (kinda hard to explain) and you play whatever chord you're in upstroked.

There is a lot of non-metal activity that goes on in metal tabs. I'm definitely not the only one. You're still using that lame insult?

you obviously were trying to show off, if you werent, you would have asked this question somewhere more relevant. heres the same situation but in a different scenario: imagine a nirvana fan, asking fellow guitarists in a nirvana forum for help on how to play death metal. he obviously knows that hes asking the wrong people and that they wouldnt be of any help to him, yet he asks anyways because he wants to use that opportunity to show that he has a varied taste in music and show that hes br00tal. ok, im not saying are any nirvana fans who like death metal, but you get what im saying. so can you see what im saying now dick weed?

you know what im saying is right, thats why your using the oldest trick in the book to try and cover it up. your trying to make what i said sound completely absurd and unimaginably stupid in the hope that people end up laughing about it and forgeting the whole thing.


your a textbook retard. good day to your sir.

Listen here, you're just a delusional fuckup trying to talk me down because I like ska and you obviously hate the fuck out of it for being such an asshole to jump to your imaginary conclusion. You're obviously a very close minded twat who needlessly jumps to conclusions to things you oppose, in this case; ska. On this forum, most of us have varied musical tastes. Not all of us just listen to metal unlike your sorry ass. For example look at nHoE's swing/jazz thread in the bands forum. It has nothing to do with metal, but it's pretty accepted by most of the members here. Also, look in the tab request forum. There is a thread for posting non-metal tabs. I should punch in the face for being such a fucktard. Hopefully you now realize that your an idiot and possibly kill yourself for the sake of others, or you can continue to try and convince me and everyone else that 'im trying to show off.' But please, choose the first option.

It was too self-degrading to just let it go, so I had to sig it.

Anyways, none of have been really of help but I'll work with what was useful enough.

But seriously,all the best to someone that is prepared to learn other style/genre's of guitar playing.It really broadens your guitar playing ability.

He asked here because supposedly, and I apply the following phrase loosely, metalheads like to be known as open-minded to all music.

[Except black metal]

The hypothetical Nirvana example is far too specific to be applied here and inappropriate in any case since only an infinitessimally small percentage of Nirvana fans dedicated enough to post on a Nirvana forum will have heard a death metal riff whereas I can guarantee that at least 95% of folk here have heard a multitude of ska riffs and songs on the radio.

I genuinely believe that there is a lot to be learnt from metal guitarists, as they often incorporate myriad styles into their playing. Granted, ska is difficult to integrate into metal playing due to the more markedly upbeat nature, but there must be someone here who knows a trick or two. If so, help the guy out; if not belt your trap shut.

What Zionist thought, probably wrongly from the responses, was that metal guitarists are broadminded, have a wide range of skills and are technically more adept than, say, a grunger. How sad that only a small handful of his fellow metalheads bothered to help him out.

And why not ask the question in a forum where you are amongst people you know rather than signing up to another forum and being treated like a noob with the same sort of responses that are dished out here? Wouldn't you ask advice from people you are familiar with before asking a stranger? It seems logical, to me at least, to act in the way Zionist has.
