Re: Harmonics w/ Regular Notes

[Graham Percival]

I recommend
  < a\harmonic >4

It's probably mentioned in Articulations, and is certainly
mentioned in the section on Unfretted strings.  The way that
strings notate artificial harmonics is
  < a e'\harmonic>4
but I don't know if that's appropriate for guitars.

Cheers,
