Alternating Harmonics Between Different Frets

Lick 36 uses harmonics on the 7th and 5th frets on the D and G strings.

Notice that the harmonic at the 7th fret of the G string is the same note as the harmonic on the 5th fret of the D string.

The following two licks use a combination of harmonics and fretted notes.

Lick 38 includes harmonics played together as a chord, using the thumb, index and middle finger of your right hand.
