Yes, press down the note as you are playing a normal note, NOT like a normal harmonic. QUOTE Hold the pick with your thumb as close to the edge as you can. It is vital that you still strike the string with your pick, and that your thumb contacts the same point along the string a millisecond afterwards. Make sure the angle of your pick strike means that you allow both your pick and thumb to contact the string in one single downstroke. You're aiming to 'brush' the edge of your thumb on the string after you've picked - all in one motion. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Natural harmonics are created by the left hand. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
