[NoSenss]

AC/DC pajamas XP

[Olpustra]

That's no effect..I think that's standard tune....isn't it?XD

[woodie62]

That's a helluvan illusion; your axe doesn't budge one bit even though your hands are bearing down moderately while you're playing. . . .:ol

[williheckaslike]

[subhraaj777]

HEAVYNESS is a solid IBANEZ

[TheSickness14]

That's pinch harmomincs not tapping right?

[darkisois18]

@TheSickness14 tapped harmonics

[metalcore1129]

how come for me its a lot easier to do pinchies on the higher strings(g b e) i can almost never do them on the lower strings???? but i can do them on the bottom 3 strings easy(g b e)

[FeltBikes4eva]

I had the same problem once. First of all you need practice, practice practice... Also, make sure that you have a high gain on your amp. Nad for me, they are easyer to do with the bridge pickup, but it depends on the guitar.

[GuitarCrazyManiac]

@FeltBikes4eva It isn't about the gain, it's all about thumb placement. When you can do pinch harminics without a pick, you know you have it down.

[loopyrider]

have you tried hitting the string at a different location around the pick ups

[subhraaj777]

itz cause of the way you hold the pick on the lower strings u kinddsa have to make a v shape gap with ur flesh and pick the the way you hold the pick is also important form the fastness on the lower and hingher strings so try different ways to hold ur pick

[HJubb]

What pickups do you have?

[PattetheBeast]

@metalcore1129 just practice more on the lower strings

[rudiiwii]

why didi you put your rm near the strings and pickups

[kiragumanyara]

my nigga..love ur sound

[ssjakuma]

Dude... That sounded sexy... Awesome job, my friend...

[ccato000]

Hey man great use of the A pentatonic scale making it sound awesome and keeping it very simple man that was nice I really enjoyed

[wingeddemon5807]

good job. some are artificial though

[Galthy]

if you broke a string it destroy the camera xD!

haha

[BATJComixCompany]

lmao

[KageNinja16]

LMFAO!!!!

[aquilinajake]

it aint a pinch harmonic is an artifishal harmonic

[chrisleijssen]

Artificial

[mackerfoly]

The pinch harmonic used with the thumb to make the sound he is is called a pinch harmonic. Look at my video top ten pinch harmonics

[18nup]

...do people normally hold their picks like that to do a pinched harmonic in a song...

[ledzepacbasslyn423]

i always thought it would be cool to have an effects pedal that makes pinch harmonics

[DemonicTurtle66]

is that a Ibanez IJX40?

Thats what I have and from this angle its hard to tell

[jayhawk808]

no it looks like a strat to me

[18nup]

it is a strat lol

[quutamo87]

very nice demonstration man... that was awesome!! thx!!!

[putsumcheezonit]

holy shit that was soooo cool

[spo224]

what tuning are you in, that shit is sick

[DLoganFoster]

standard tuning

[spo224]

is there anyway you can tab that it inspires me i get on here every night just to hear it

[metalfan8806]

why would you need a tab for this? not to mention..he's literally playing right in front of a camera....

[ROFLWAFFLE88]

@spo224 it's just the amp effects that make it sound cool but the tuning just makes it a lower or higher tune in the guitar

[ajawofcopan]

my pinches sound like that too - i can't figure out those squeels like zakk wylde for the life of me

[dobbsie3]

try adding more distortion or a bit of a vibrato

[reamer113]

because zakk wyldes pinches are squeals they use the higher cords and to perform them you simply lightly touch the string without stoping the vibration

[jodex96]

And with Humbucker microphones it's 100 times easier... Check out my video "Drop B Riff"...

[ShaneThompson94]

i think its easier to play with your thumb, but thats what i think anyway. amazing guitar playing

[squibster]

nice vid man, nice ac/dc pj's too. lol

[JustinPiano09]

You are a great guitarist! I just learned how to play pinch harmonics yesterday and they sound so cool.

[phonzlocka]

Very nice indeed dude!

[jonesgs99]

that was ok

[PeterCrissFan]

Is there more where this came from? Aren't you the same guy that has all those fiddle lessons posted on here? We sure would love to see some more guitar. You rock man!

[bub166]

that is exactly how i wanna play.....

[waranghira]

umm, can you explain the differences on tones of all that artificial harmonics?

what did you used? index, then middle nail?

what about the thumb?

[JessicaRock]

Good Job Man... That sound good

[2Luke]

u got skill brathaH!

[sPANishbreadisgood]

Nice PJS ( :

[PeterCrissFan]

Aren't they though :))

[JTMarlin8]

excellent

[timmywear]

what do you have on the bridge?

single or humbucker?

[DLoganFoster]

single coil pup...

[WingsofBrokenPaper]

@timmywear he SAID its a stratocaster. Stratocasters have single coils. If you played guitar you would know :)

[anaki71]

@WingsofBrokenPaper he could have meant strat styled guitar and you can customize any guitar and add humbuckers if you want.. "If you played guitar you would know :)"

[thatbrootalkid]

@WingsofBrokenPaper yea but you can switch out pick ups and some strats come with humbuckers also

[EVHFanz]

Damn, I wish I could play like that!

[egg22]

pinch's rule my world... :)
