| Guitar Guru Reveals Secrets To Virtuoso Guitar TechniqueIn his resource, Hess discusses why most guitar players can’t play clean pinch harmonics due to making one of many common errors. Hess says: “Playing clean pinch harmonics requires great precision and timing. Fact is, many guitarists struggle with harmonics because they are used to playing them in ineffective ways or they simply do not know how to clearly play them.” He continues, “Many people do not know exactly where to strike the string to produce a great harmonic every time.

This can be fixed by taking the time to map out the sweet spots along the strings where you can produce the harmonics. You just need to slide the pick up and down each string and listen to hear where the clearest harmonics sound – but make sure to take your time and listen so you know exactly where the clearest harmonics ring out.” Hess also talks about several other common mistakes and emphasizes the importance of integrating pinch harmonics together with other techniques, so the guitarist learns how to use them in a musical manner.
