Anyone know how to do the finger mute in the verse of "Around The World" by Red Hot Chili Peppers.

it is not the same as slap mute i think because i tried it that way but then i got only the plucking sound and nothing else lol

I'm pretty sure he just dampens the note with his left hand. He hits the note and real quick lets off his left hand so the note is so short it just seems like he mutes it.
