Thanks :) I try to keep them short and sweet whenever possible. Straight to the lick! :)

the trick I found to pinch harmonics is to really bite in with the finger when you do it. Most of those technics like bends and pinchs deal with your attitude to the approach of playing the guitar. If you can stay aggressive yet relaxed you can pull most of these off with PRACTICE

Yup. You've got to add some "meat to the pick" so to speak. Get more of the thumb in there.

Practice!

That's a good tip for beginners. I use this in most songs. For some weird reason I don't know any guitarist where I live who can do pinch harmonics. Why? It's such a simple technique.

I've been trying to do some more starter focused lessons lately as I've been getting lots of requests for them. Some folks have a hard time pulling it off. It's really just a question of.....practice!

Exactly :) But sadly most people are too lazy. I know that by my own experience as well. No use in starting with the hardest techniques.
