Harmonics will be a word that will crop up time and time again for guitar players. Everything we hear in music is made up of harmonics. They make up the notes we hear and the tones we create, but you may also hear of harmonics as an intention guitar technique.
In this lesson we’re going to take a look at a type of harmonics known as natural harmonics, or open string harmonics. When you play an open string, the pitch you hear is made up of multiple harmonics, but one harmonics is louder than the other, this is known as the fundamental harmonic.
This is the overriding version of that note we hear when we play a note. Using our fingers, a gentle touch and a small knowledge of different lengths of string, we can isolate specific harmonics while removing the fundamental, to give us different harmonics.
