Artificial Harmonics

Mike Salow
AdvancedAny styleTechnique 5 lessons14m

Hi all! Back once again with another Infinite Guitar tutorial. This time I thought it might be fun to discuss artificial harmonics. I was first interested in this technique when I saw Tommy Emanuel play. Tommy is a fantastic player who you should check out, if you haven't already. Although he was the inspiration for this tutorial, he for sure is not the only guitarist that utilizes this technique. In this tutorial, we will discuss the uses of this technique in all styles and we will also break down the technique to its basic level as well as to its full potential. The tab provided will be key in your learning of the material. Note that there are markings for the artificial harmonics that will be plucked an octave up from the fretted notes.
