Impossible Harmonics!!!

chavhunter · 05-09-2008, 10:03 AM

At 3.36 in this video the guy on the end (Dave Weiner) plays plays 'B, D' in natural harmonics, but I cant find the D!! Fret 4 on the B string is a D#, and it looks like he's around there but he hits a D spot on. His G string sounds a bit flat at 3:30 but I doubt he tuned his whole guitar flat just to hit one harmonic! Help?!?!!

if the 4th frets is D# hit the 3rd fret then ?

Er, no mate, this is natural harmonics. i.e. 5th fret is a B, 4th fret is a D#, 3rd fret is an F#. I cant find a D natural but thought someone on here might know where one is hiding, as you often find them in very particular positions.

Wouldn't D be a natural harmonic on the D string? I think on a D string, the harmonic on 12 is D an octave up, on 5 is D two octaves up, and 7 is A a fifth above the open D.

Fret 7 on the G as well as fret 5 on the D are both D's.

True, but I need the one an octave above that. Its for a finals exam in a couple of weeks but I may just have to play 19-22 on the E string. Kinda spoils it though if every other note is in harmonics

Maybe he hit it on the e-string.

Nice one!! Thats exactly the sort of thing I was looking for!! Im not sure some of those are right though, the 5th fret is always 2 octaves above the open string i.e. should be an E, not B...?
