Hi guys
I've been learning pinch harmonics recently but i cant nail them as often as i would like.
Yesterday,I was over at my friend's place playing on his guitar (Floyd Rose).I tried doing pinch harmonics and they started popping out as often as i wanted them to.So,does it have anything to do with my strings being gauge 9 and his gauge 8? Or is it because his was a floating bridge? Or was I just playing the notes perfectly??
