great video but i have a question,
if your guitar is tuned 6th string= d# and 5th sring is G# do the harmonics sound the same or is does is onley sound the same if you tune it in 6th = E and 5th = A ?
First of all great video! I discovered harmonic tuning by happenstance early in my playing, and I wanted to give you a little addendum that has worked for me: when tuning the G and B strings, you can hit the harmonic in the 9th fret for the G, and the 5th fret for the B. And, if you'd like, you could even go further by hitting the harmonic on the 7th fret for the E string. They all resonate at the same frequency.
Anyway, I hope you have some luck with that.
Have a great day.
In re: your video TB-002 on tuning via harmonics- There is indeed a fancy technical term for the "warbling" sound you hear. It is called Phase Cancellation. As for the internet critics of harmonic tuning, if you have your reference string tuned properly in the first place, then tuning by harmonics ought to work perfectly well.
Of course, given the opportunity to tune with a Peterson Strobe, I would not even bother fussing with harmonics. The higher end Korg rack tuners are also nice.
