Guitar Lessons â€“ Playing Harmonics A harmonic is a tone that’s created by the guitar by touching the string above a fret on an open vibrating string.

Natural Harmonics Natural Harmonics can be produced by touching your index finger on your fret-hand above at the 5th, 7th or 12th fret.

This results in a faster progression of notes, sometimes called licks. The hammer-on is accomplished when you pick a note and then using another finger hammer down on the same string. The ...
