All Four Down Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I'd like to start adding harmonics into my bass grooves, but I'm a total newb to harmonics Does anybody have any cool riffs with harmonics? I'm looking mainly for jazzy/bluesy kind of things. thanks (And sorry for the vague op ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doddy Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 The first obvious question is do you know do you know where the harmonics are and what notes they are? That will really help,especially if you want to hit harmonic chords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like the spelling on it though. Should be spelt as triads on the E,A and D strings.(E,G#,B-A,C#E etc). The flats make it look more complex than it is.

It might even have come from a fellow BCer, can't remember now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
