How to Play Bass: Harmonics

Harmonics are when you lightly touch a string at certain points, without pressing the string down. I go into more detain in this video:

Quite useful on bass to get those higher-register notes and to allow you to form chords that aren’t too “muddy” sounding (as would happen if you tried playing chords normally on bass because the notes are so low pitched).

Stay tuned for more on harmonics (for guitar and bass) in the future. You can also download this pdf for a diagram of the harmonics on guitar and their pitches.
