This vid was put together only as a beginners lesson for Delcamp.net - it surely covers a topic which anyone who has played for 10 minutes already know.

If you have not yet grabbed nader's harmonics chart - please do so - it is a terRIFIC resource... http://www.delcamp.net/forum/en/viewtopic.php?t=2353

As additional text info - here is a list of harmonics available and where each can be played:

:arrow:  12 - 1 octave above fundamental
:arrow:  7, 19 - 12th above fundamental
:arrow:  5, 3/4 down string - 2 octaves above fundamental
:arrow:  4, 9, 16, @ 4/5 down string - 2 octaves plus a Maj. 3rd
:arrow:  3, @ 5/6 down string - 2 octaves plus a 5th
:arrow:  between 2 & 3, @ 6/7 down the string - 2 octaves plus a minor 7th
:arrow:  2, @ 7/8 down the string 3 octaves

One thing I did not cover in the vids is the fact that you CAN play a harmonic in such a way that TWO tones are actually sounded: the desired harmonic AND the fundamental. This is accomplished by a very very very light touch (damp) so that, when the string is plucked, BOTH the harmonic and the fundamental will ring.

- I am NOT a teacher
- my technique SUCKS!
- my memory, if not totally flawed, is, at best, spotty
