@@TheRealMrLaserCutterIt's an interesting technique quite fiddly but not impossible... Just search 'how to play artificial harmonics" and you will find some stuff it's much better then me trying to explain in comments
They aren’t tapped harmonics (at least I didn’t notice any) they’re classical technique artificial harmonics if that helps in looking up the technique to learn:) Basically start off with doing a 12th fret harmonic, but use the index finger of your picking hand to lightly press against the string above the 12th fret and use another finger (usually ring but honestly whatever’s most comfortable) to pick the string That’s the jist of that technique and from there to play fretted notes just do the above picking 12 frets above whatever you’re fretting - eg 3rd fret=15th fret AH, 7th fret=19th AH, 11 fret=23 AH (or if your guitar doesn’t have 23 just wherever the 23rd would be roughly, that part takes getting used to) You can technically do it 5 and 7 frets above too, just like natural harmonics are 5 and 7 frets above open but they are v hard to nail and not necessary, just focus on the 12th fret above whatever you’re fretting and practice easy melodies, once comfortable with that do cool stuff like using them to play the melody as in this video:) long winded and no one asked lol but hope it helps someone
@@ThousandOwl all good! Just a cool technique imo that takes a lil practice but is so worth it for clean&acoustic playing And yeah pinch harmonics are v similar, mostly a metal guitarist myself just in that you’re essentially using the thumb after the pick to create the harmonic
@@Ken_Dalton they’re called artificial harmonics in classical guitar (where I learned the technique), just googled to double check but thanks for the alternate name:)
as a gen z these are all super impressive! The gen x one was something else, I love how you did both the vocals and background music with the guitar simultaneously and so perfectly.
I’m 31 I’ve been playing guitar for 15 years and it’s not the song that impresses another guitar player. It’s knowing the amount of time put into the craft. Great job.
Ive been playing for 2 years and i see stuff like this and remember how far out from this i am, not only do you have to write it, add the chords and progressions, and alot more. I write simple songs using basic chords and small picking patterns or songs solely using finger picking that are 1/10 the complexity of this sometimes i almost want to put the guitar down, but this makes me want to pick it up and learn ever piece of it cause its so beautiful,
Just make sound in a way that gives you joy! Never give up. Absorb what you enjoy. Keep your guitar well setup, so it's at its easiest to play. You are on your way:)
Gen Z here and you impressed me with all. Gotta love them oldies too. 99% of music is supreme and i love it all and your playing guitar made me happy its very nice
Okay but Hey Joe is a legendary song, doesn't get enough credit. I think most people know Jimi Hendrix is great but don't actually know why. When I first actually looked into his music I was mind blown especially since I had started guitar and understood why his playing is so impressive.
so why is he so special? i play a guitar too but i have never fully understood why they say he is the best guitarist. Yeah I know those few famous song and i can hear its really good, but the best?
@@saitama7578 he's not objectively the best but if you look into some of the music theory behind his playing style I found he was a lot more impressive than I had first thought. Also he was very good at writing interesting music not just playing it
Hey Joe is actually a Billy Robert's song originally that Hendrix covered. Also shocked you didnt mention something like Machine Gun in terms if his stellar guitar work
@@jensanruby6739 that makes sense, I wanna say I had heard it was a cover or at least know he did a lot of covers, as a lot of blues or blues inspired people did. Surprisingly I'm actually not familiar with Machine Gun by name at least?

As a gen Z, I’m impressed by the Bohemian Rhapsody. My parents loved that song and passed down that love of Queen to me. I went to Queen’s concert with my parents last year. Seriously though, great music! That’s impressive to everyone.
I’m the same. He impressed me with every song, and I impressed myself by knowing all of them somehow 😂 guess my parents really loved “old time music” and they passed it down to me because I grew up listening to it.
Same! I got a lot of my music taste passed down from my parents, but i keep exploring that music area with the classics, from Queen, Sex Pistols etc. the Bohemian Rhapsody one was my favourite too. And thats awesome you got to go to their concert!!!
Look as a Gen Zer I don't want to talk trash about the younger Generations because the older generation already talked enough trash about us already we need to break the cycle together as humans a vicious cycle that's been going on for centuries of older people talking down on the younger people over and over and over. First they called the boomers the TV generation and so on and so on
the way gen alpha needed an annotation as to what it was though lmfao 💀 (i wouldn't have known what it was otherwise so i'm glad it was there lol) i love how you played both the voice and instrumental parts for bohemian rhapsody, that was damn impressive :0 idk as a violinist playing so many parts at once is just like woah haha
What you did for Gen Alpha, Gen Z, Millennial and Gen X are the 'usual' sound of alternative songs Gen X and Millennial used to hear on FM stations. 😅 Sounds familiar bcos I used to listen to an FM station that plays alternative songs 24/7 since I was in HS from 2003 until I left college.

all of these impress everyone
I think tapped harmonics impress anyone that can’t do them. Myself included.
They aren’t tapped harmonics (at least I didn’t notice any) they’re classical technique artificial harmonics if that helps in looking up the technique to learn:)
Basically start off with doing a 12th fret harmonic, but use the index finger of your picking hand to lightly press against the string above the 12th fret and use another finger (usually ring but honestly whatever’s most comfortable) to pick the string
That’s the jist of that technique and from there to play fretted notes just do the above picking 12 frets above whatever you’re fretting - eg 3rd fret=15th fret AH, 7th fret=19th AH, 11 fret=23 AH (or if your guitar doesn’t have 23 just wherever the 23rd would be roughly, that part takes getting used to)
You can technically do it 5 and 7 frets above too, just like natural harmonics are 5 and 7 frets above open but they are v hard to nail and not necessary, just focus on the 12th fret above whatever you’re fretting and practice easy melodies, once comfortable with that do cool stuff like using them to play the melody as in this video:) long winded and no one asked lol but hope it helps someone
@@stevennixon6930 oh my mistake. I see now. I actually think I do a similar thing as a metal guitarist (pinch harmonics). Sorry for the confusion!

We’re not talking about impressing other guitar players, we’re talking about impressing ourselves through generations.
