  • how do you know what fret to be holding your finger for harmonics when you get different chords involved?

  • @dbfydtn Well, from the point-of-view of a right-handed player: if, say, there's an open-position A-chord being fretted with your left hand then the finger on the right-hand would touch (to generate the harmonic) at (from 6th string to first string) the 12th fret, then the 12th fret again, then 14th fret for the next three strings and 12th fret for the sixth string. And so on for any and all chords.

  • I saw him once. his videos cannot compare to the power he has live. He plays 1 song that im lookin for . i cant remember the namebut it was a song he wrote about his experiences with the natives of australia. would love to see that hear please. thank you for the videos

  • It's called "Initiation". There are many performances of it on Youtube (just do a "search").

  • Easy enough. I should have that sometime in 2042.

  • Is it just me or Tommy looks a bit like Marty McFly in this video? :D The greatest guitar player of all times anyways)

  • A brilliant musician! Great lesson!

  • Awesome. I'm going to try this.

  • Exclusive harp harmonics.

  • fuckin freak

  • @walrein947 you could try picking with your middle finger, hitting the harmonic with your index...could work..haven't tried it...it's hard as hell with a flatpick,..I know that much...I can't do it for shit yet.....lol

  • Is there anyway I can do this without having to practice or have any talent at all?

    You know, just pick up the guitar and do it without any of the hard stuff?

    No?

    IT'S NOT FAIR!

  • Is there any way to do this with just your fingers and not a pic?

  • he looks young xD
