      Thanks for the video content! Forgive me for chiming in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Rozardner Stopping Sounds Reality (google it)? It is a good exclusive guide for how to instantly slow down music by software minus the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate after many years got excellent results with it.

    I never thought of doing pinch harmonics that way without a pick, I always try to mimic a pick with my nail for the attack before touching it, but your way is pretty cool and not as hard as I thought it would be. Lenny Breau's harp harmonics which I didn't see in the video is beautiful, though it's a bit challenging and I'm guessing that's why you didn't do it in this video.

    Maybe dimebag darrel used this technique with his tremolo bar to make all those different pitched screams, because most pinch harmoics sound the same (no finger on octive harmonic) with electric distorted and picked in the right spot. I love learning new stuff and having questions, you sir are Great!!!

    I learned "El Testement d'Amélia", but the section that you do in artificial harmonics is driving me nuts, so i just play it straight. I will go back and learn it as meant to be. It's just doing the bass and harmonic at the same time!
    This lesson should help. Thank you.

    Hey, I know this is a weird request since there is barely any coverage of it but i'd really love if you made a lesson for Two Rocks and a Cup of Water by Massive Attack. I'm sure you could make an incredible cover with harmonics. Would probably be my favorite guitar song ever, well over song of the golden dragon. I reckon it would be hard... maybe impossible but I don't have anything to lose for asking.
    Have a great day!

    Should you leave your index finger on the string to get the harmonic to ring or do you lift it off shortly softer picking with the thumb or other finger?

    • @georgefuller8434
      @georgefuller8434 5 років тому

      Paul Ashley have your index finger (picking hand) on the corresponding 12th fret and with your middle/4th finger (picking hand) play the string and a millisecond after you pluck that string remove all left hand fingers

    @okiedokiee1869 3 роки тому

    pointers: - when playing harmonics release both index and thumb fingers at same time(at least that works for me)
    -press on steel fret lightly
    -make sure when playing any fret with your left hand(must), playing a harmonic must be 12 frets above with your right hand or else it wouldnt work.
