Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Gary Schutt and I am going to talk to you about pinch harmonics. Pinch harmonics are created with your right hand. If you have your notes with your left hand, lets say C 5th thread G string, what you want to do is hold your pick normally as such between your first finger and thumb and you are going to want to take some of the skin on the bottom side of your thumb and just kind of scrape that across the string as you are picking it which will create variations of your note.
