This tune only uses the Harmonic Capo on the two middle strings, but it still makes a big difference. Even with the capo, I can't always reach the notes I need, so I end up doing something else weird... see if you can spot it.

  • Hey Bob! I got a question for you?

    What tuning is this in? I would very much like to learn how to play this piece.

    thanks

  • CGdgDE, with the Harmonic Capo on the middle two strings ("dg")

  • Fascinating. I can hear something weird you're doing, but I can't catch you doing it.

    Moosie

  • The best place to see the "weird" bit is around 1:40. Watch the little finger on my left hand. You'll see it pluck the E string and you'll hear a high "E" harmonic. But that isn't the octave harmonic, its the two-octave harmonic.  So, the capo isn't making that one. If you look very closely, you'll see the index finger of my right hand reach down and touch the harmonic point on the E string over the sound hole. Normally, you'd get that harmonic at the 5th fret, but this was easier.

  • how long have u been playing

  • Hard to say. I have a nasty habit of stopping for years (even decades) at a time. But I started at age 10 and that was 37 years ago.

  • beautiful. this is the music I want to listen to while walking through the woods.

  • b e a u t i f u l. thank you

  • If i'm not mistaken, i thought i saw you using a peculiar tapped harmonic technique. To perform the technique, you placed a finger over the desired node from your picking hand, and plucked it with another finger from the same hand.

  • your music is amazing. im stoked i stumbled upon your channel!

  • great picking sir

  • your music is beautiful, i dont know why you aren't a Youtube star.
