Funny thing, a VERY high percentage (as in 20-40%) of 2nd harmonic can be inaudible or even pleasant sounding.
Starting with the Abby road album, 2nd and even harmonics were added to 'warm" the sound and guitar amplifiers and even the guitar loudspeakers are set up to have preferably even harmonics.
With natural or machine sounds which are not harmonic in structure (unlike music) , both even and odd harmonics change the timber of sound.
Odd harmonics are dissonant sounding and with both harmonics, it is how far they are from the fundamental which partly governs how audible they will be per masking.
