Harmonics Scale
Using natural harmonics, we can play a D Major or B Minor scale. Note that although the harmonics are marked as the 3rd, 4th, and 5th frets, the exact position is actually 3.2, 3.9, and 5.

These exercises can be played for any chord's left-hand fingering using the same tapping patterns above, as well as descending, so long as they are low enough for the octave +12 frets to be tapped.
