Never really understood why harmonics (touching a string on a fret key) on a guitar rather then pressing a string to the fret board generate a note that sounds better to my idea? Harmonics any ideas? Hoping someone really knows as it is a great question in my, not often humble, humble opinion
I think it's all about your age Pete. As we get older the higher pitch notes become less clear, a pinched harmonic dampens out the higher frequency but leaves the lower harmonic.
When I was younger I always thought such techniques a little droning, now I tend to like it.
