Fundamentals of Guitar (page 1) - Harmonics

[@VCaamano]

Thanks for the video. I heard about you through Adam Levy's video blog.

[@hansenmarc]

Best and most detailed explanation I have ever seen of guitar harmonics, combining the underlying physical basis and how it relates to music. I just picked up the book, and am really enjoying it. Thank you so much.

Thanks!!!

Miles just started on the book, this is just incredible work and research. congratulations

[@matteopapaiz]

Great stuff! Looking forward to check out your book.

[@dmyerstc55]

I just bought your book and look forward to learning

[@milesokazaki]

Thank you, hope you dig it!

[@killerbiene243]

This is incredibly insightful. Thank you so much for putting this up for free!

[@brambleq1236]

How's this "insightful"? It's basic physics, and btw, these notes are in the natural temperament (mathematically perfect) which is different from the equal temperament we use in playing music. What's the use of all of this?

@@brambleq1236 Watch the entire video!

[@milesokazaki]

Bramble Q123 temperament is the adjustment away from the harmonic series for the purposes of modulating, etc. Maybe you mean “just intonation.” And it’s true that this may not be useful at all!

@@brambleq1236 Here’s another example of how harmonics can be useful in a musical context (at least if your name is Alex Lifeson). In the intro to Rush’s Red Barchetta, the lead guitar part is composed entirely of harmonics: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHLZgoahgJ2Nbrc

Baritone Gretch harmonics sound pretty great 👍

[@AriaMehr648]

Tnx alot sir❤

Miles do you have perfect pitch, or did you memorize those partials when you played them at around 12:00? It's impressive that you could name them all. I don't think I have perfect pitch and it seems difficult to pick out those things without memorizing them, even though they're clearly seventh chords. Might mean learning music is harder for me. Can I ask what that picking technique is you used soloing over Giant Steps?

[@milesokazaki]

Chris I don’t have perfect pitch, but I can hear pitches pretty well. But at that spot there’s nothing that deep happening - I’m just spelling out 1,3,5,b7 off each string. Thanks for checking it out.

Hey Miles, I'm looking at the book on Amazon and there're two versions. Is there any difference between them content or corrections-wise? Spiral's better for the music stand I guess? Digging all the videos, thanks

[@milesokazaki]

James P. McQuoid spiral is the version that works - electronic version sucks, bad reproduction. Thanks!

[@jamesp.mcquoid1639]

Thanks for the info. Will steer clear of the ebook. I'm probably getting a few for some students so I'm being picky. Is that Mel Bay "workbook edition" different from the spiral bound version? Page count is different. Maybe just Amazon weirdness? Thanks. @@milesokazaki

[@milesokazaki]

James P. McQuoid workbook is the paper version. Thanks for checking it out!

[@michaelt5012]

Dude I got wet when I found your channel after messing with your book for awhile thank you!!!!!!
