L.H.P.M.-Left Hand Palm Mute.
Note: As some of you guitarist know, A left hand palm mute isn't played
too often. This just happens to be one of those rare tunes with it
in there. Course, when you use this, it makes a slight harmonic pitch.
Which would state that it's a stuccatto,etc..
Still, if it doesn't sound right to you, email me to make a suggestion
,etc..
