There's a Radiohead song or two that Jonny Greenwood plays with an extra "fret" in the form of a little metal nub on the side of the neck that he latches his high E string onto
I wouldn't recommend doing the koto thing on a guitar that you like or that is expensive. Puts alot on extra stress on the neck and neck joint because of the angle of the strings. I would only try that one with a cheap guitar.
@@victorvaida4272 I don't think is that By example here in Latinoamerica is almost unheard of/impossible to see that kind of utility normally we would have to contact the countries that do have those things if we have money in the first place... And a guitar OOF
2:37 was probably one of the most beautiful things I’ve heard come from an acoustic guitar. Probably not going to try it though due to anxiety about string snapping in my face😂
You can also push on the portion of the strings behind the nut and before the tuners to achieve a vibrato effect. It can sound very cool and also works with harmonics.
I found out that the headstock bends before this. I showed my dad because I thought it was crazy. He has a les paul. He says always gonna be tempted to do it now. I'm worried hes gonna break that shit.
8:35 never thought this technique sounded good. But you can go past the nut and slightly press all the strings down to get a similar effect without the risk.
Wow these tips were so much more substantial than I expected them to be! Also, “air tapping” harmonics like Erik Mongrain, bending a string above the nut, percussive techniques on an acoustic, tuning a ringing note via tuning pegs, and honestly picking location to affect timbre (so few people seem to realize how big of a difference there is between picking at the bridge and half way up the neck) are a few other ones I use. Never seen the koto trick though! Sounds so beautiful.
Great tips! Couldn’t help notice you didn’t reach for one of the PRS’S whilst demonstrating the vibrato by pushing on the guitar body while holding the neck.....
5:40 - When I was learning to play I remember noticing Brian May was doing the 'fretted harmonics' thing during the outro to Boh-Rap.... and thinking to myself.... "Clever b******"

I end the Beatles "Oh Darling" with a vibrato neck bend to stimulate a slightly warped album. (33 1/3 Bends PM) 😉 I just checked... While the original has some reverb at the end I don't really hear vibrato. Since I started adding that from the very first time I played Oh Darling, I'm guessing the album my sister had when I was 8... in the early sixties... was warped. I have always heard it that way. So... Is there a bend at the end on that song that I'm missing? Or were the Beatles selling bent albums?
@@gloriboigaming7583 I hate it when the channel changes mid-posting...😷 Edit... On second watch @7:45 is what I'm talking about... "Neck Bending" is the tech as I know it. Whatever.
I tried the Japanese one it was pretty dope. I didn't need the pen and rubber bands though just the slide. I used the cloud on the big sky and it was sick.
Thank you very much it was really nice to hear these things on acoustic instruments back in the middle 70s they weren’t many people experiment like this but I think I did your harp and plucking at 12 Fret back in 75’ and I just came up with it by myself there was no videos to watch so it’s really great to see you doing this
I've known the harmonics trick for years . Leonard Cohen's son Achilles taught me that back in the 90's . It's a really cool way to play your harmonic chords
I just figured out a cool technique that I've been using for a song I'm doing and I don't think anyone has ever done it. It's called a harmonic tap. So basically you pick a note and then pressing the 12th fret after to activate the harmonic making a cool sound. Acoustic is fine but I think classical is better cause it's more longer to hear the harmonic
Instead of use in the marker and elastic thing instead put a metal slide through the top arm of a capo (the slide that presses on the strings) and put the capo on the 12th fret. Now the slide will stay in place
Damn That Koto Trick, When He Slide The "Metal" Under The Strings Of The Guitar, I Can Feel The Guitar Screaming In Pain. Those Who Value Their Guitar Very Much Should Feel What I Feel
I knew the last one! Slapping the guitar is a favored pass time of mine, and was the first form of finger style I learned. Never tried it on a baritone though, only bass, 6, and 8 string guitars.
For those who want to see more of the 4th technique, Tommy Emmanuel is using it in his version of Classical Gas🔥 This song is amazing! Those few of you who didn't already listen to it, DO IT!

Also, for harmonic bending, you don't need to push on the head stock. If you're not using a capo or locking nut, you can just press the string behind the nut to bend harmonics or fret immediately after sounding the harmonic for normal vibrato manipulation, though the latter would be extremely tough when playing multiple strings.
Koto is freakin awesome!!!! so cool..can't wait to try it. I played piece a long time ago that does the harp harmonics, but I used my "a" finger (Ring finger) instead of thumb...super cool sound

8:35 never thought this technique sounded good. But you can go past the nut and slightly press all the strings down to get a similar effect without the risk.
I mean what risk really is there. There is over 115 pounds of pressure on a guitar neck at all times. A little push isn't doing much.
I figured this out once when I pressed too hard and it went out of tune. I thought it would be a cool way to do a vibrato
I broke my first acoustic doing this, to be fair it was a $20 (converted from my local currency) POS, but I still broke it lol
That tightens up the strings, this makes them more loose for a sec... it's the opposite
The neck push lets you bend flat
I've just snapped my guitar in half, after bending the neck for a minor vibrato.

That trick of turning the acoustic guitar into a koto is super dope! Time to experiment!
“Harp harmonics” at 5:34 are usually known as artificial harmonics, especially in the classical community of guitar playing.
Jake Ellison what he calls harp harmonica are actually usually called touch harmonics. Artificial harmonics are pinch harmonics
Juan Villanueva No, pinch harmonics are pinch harmonics. Touch harmonic is another name for artificial.
Artificial Harmonics is the umbrella, Pinch, Harp, and Touch harmonics are all very slight variations of this technique that fall under that umbrella.
@@jackuvall8061 We can all agree on the fact that harmonics aren't an unbeliveable technique at all... nor the vibrato with the neck

If you're just doing octave harmonics, you can just tap the harmonics for faster playing. The articulation is almost identical, especially at faster tempos. Also, for harmonic bending, you don't need to push on the head stock. If you're not using a capo or locking nut, you can just press the string behind the nut to bend harmonics or fret immediately after sounding the harmonic for normal vibrato manipulation, though the latter would be extremely tough when playing multiple strings.
