when i do my pinch harmonics...well i hope they are....atleast..i dont get a squeal..like pavel does..or kris....i always..get more of a high pitch squeak.......hmm.i think its my amp though..its so gay.....well i hope its my amp .....cus if not..i dont know what the f*** im talkin about.. Its a combination of hot pickups, lots of gain, lots of treble and using the bridge pickup (I think that last is correct although not essential and may vary between guitars a little - I can get a decent squeal on any pickup as long as the treble and gain are right). -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

I found this video to be exceptionally helpfully in learning pinched harmonics. Buy an adapter for your cable, dowload the trial copy of amplitude and use your computer if you need a quik distortion fix for practicing. |

So do you actually touch the string w/ your thumb nail or just the skin?

Video did not help me. I thought it explained it almost perfectly. My 7 year old is a pinch harmonic machine now. |

Thanks for the video link. It made total sense. I discovered that the missing link for me was the digging motion.
