Metal in D — syncopated muted strums New
The syncopated version of muted strumming over D5, G5, A5: some beats are completely silent (the hand hits the strings without any of them ringing), for a punchier groove.
Tips
Break the rhythm down by clapping it first, clearly separating the played beats from the silent ones, before picking the guitar back up.
