What are some good ACOUSTIC guitar songs to practice/learn how to palm mute?

I am learning how to play guitar and palm muting is so far the hardest thing I've encountered. Also if you can tell me some good songs to practice finger picking (already know Stairway to Heaven, and Dust in the wind)... but I'm looking more for palm mute stuff! Thanks

What are some good ACOUSTIC guitar songs to practice/learn how to palm mute?
acoustic stuff ain't really palm muted and it helps if usya how good u r but there is a song called for my fathe rby andy mckee
Reply:palm muting on an acoustic guitar is not something that's commonly done. Muting with the fret hand is, though. Check out Jack Johnson.
Reply:Try the circle of chords G Em C D. as in Monster Mash. It gives a good ballad feel and works well with the palm damping. Hope this helps.
Reply:I would think the best guitar is the one you are most comfortable playing overall. That applies to any technique you are trying to learn. If you only have one guitar, and that is the one you practice with, then there is your answer. Buying a guitar to learn a technique wouldn't make any sense to me.
