These guys are just 3rd inversions of the
movable A barre. I use these to add more
bass to the sound when I'm playing alone.
Cut out the low E string for the regular
movable A if you want.
For the {harmonics} part, just lay your finger over the 12th fret
and slam away.
~ With some Weezeresque bass heavy distortion ~
Intro Riff, repeated 2x: 0.03-0.17
