The fundamental of the open high E is above 2KHz.
No it's not. It's the same note as the low E's 5th fret harmonic. They're both 2 octaves higher than the open low E.

The 5th fret harmonic has a fundamental at 160Hz. Actually, it's lower than that.
When you play a 5th fret harmonic on the low E, the lowest frequency produced is 330 Hz. It's the same pitch as the open high E.
However the frequency we hear with a 5th fret harmonic on 6th string is going to be 320Hz.. right?
And yes, the fundamentals of both notes will be 330 Hz.
The fundamentals are not the same, no. The high E is, in fact, 330Hz. That's correct. However, the low E's 5th fret harmonic is approx. 83Hz.
Didn't you just say it was 340 Hz in the previous post?
The low E fundamental is ~82.4 Hz. When you play a 5th fret harmonic on the low E you suppress the fundamental and 1st octave harmonic (165 Hz) leaving ~330 Hz as the lowest frequency.
Was that the spectrum of a processed tone? My only guesses are that you ether used the wrong clip/image, or didn't get a very clear harmonic.
Your plot shows the root, 2nd and 3rd harmonic all at the same level, and higher than anything else in the spectrum. That's the signature of an open low-E string, not a fifth-fret harmonic.Spectrum reproduced using the DI of the same harmonic:

Exactly. The root, second and third harmonic are all at the same level, and higher than anything else in the spectrum, just like in your previous plot that you said was of the fifth-fret harmonic.No, this is the signature of the open E on my end:

But they both have the same spectrum, so they must sound the same.Yes, which is independent of the fact that the first image is of the 5th harmonic and the one above is of an open E.
