Lenny Breau should have been a household name right up there with the likes of Eddy Van Halen, Wes Montgomery, or any other famous guitarist you can think of. He literally developed a whole new unique style of addressing the instrument back in the 1960s and even developed a 7-string guitar with a high A string. Totally new at the time. Only now is Lenny Breau getting some notoriety, many years after his death in 1984. Probably, in part, because of guitarist extraordinaire, Tommy Emanuel, spreading the word and exalting Lenny Breau's genius. But mostly because of the heart-wrenching documentary produced by his daughter, Emily Hughes, called The Genius of Lenny Breau (1999). That's when Adam was inspired to dive deep into Lenny Breau's approach to playing guitar. He was even inspired to design and play the 7-string guitar featured in this video.
In this Episode 1 of the series, How Did Lenny Breau Do That?, Adam Smale takes you through the steps to learn how to play Lenny Breau's Harp Harmonics. Often referred to as artificial harmonics, most people call them harp harmonics, cascading harmonics, or bell harmonics. Lenny Breau's harmonics work in playing scales, chords, intros, and endings.
Hopefully you'll walk away from this lesson and be able to incorporate Lenny Breau harmonics into your playing
