Harmonics on the bass

[Leftybass12]

I've really been getting into harmonics and would like to memorize what harmonic is what at every fret or at least frets 1-12. Is there anyway to help memorize this? Also, is there a chart of something out there that can show me what harmonic is at whatever fret?

Go here: http://www.studybass.com/tools/chord...-note-printer/ click "harm", click "show all"

That's a great site! I've also had great practice time with Dean Peer's book: http://www.deanpeer.com/reading.htm
It covers more than I ever though possible about harmonics & comes with a CD to go along with the lessons.

Memorizing is easier if you have a system. I never got far with trying to memorize harmonics until I found this.

The following harmonics sound the same note (different octave) as the fretted note beneath:
12th, 10th, 7th, 4th
The following harmonics sound the same note as the fretted note on the next lower string (e.g., 5th fret harmonic on the G string sounds the same note (G) as the 5th fret fretted note on the D string).
9th, 5th, 3rd
