  • "too much pick, too much regular note"

  • took me a while to figure it out when I first tried 5 years back

  • with enough distortion you could headbutt the guitar and get harmonics.

  • @slitherlock so true

  • dude sounds exactly like danny mcbride

  • CANT FUCKING DO IT!!!! SHIT BALLS FUCK!!!!!!!!

  • @HeavyIronMetalMaiden try it on the 13th fret on the thinnist string... I tried it there and within a few minutes I had it down.

  • Thanks! I was doing this in high school before all my friends did, I just didn't know then how I was getting this out of my guitar!!

  • Thanx man ... been trying to find out the term for this technique, people keep calling it "choke" or something and I can't seem to find it online. Now I know it's really called pinch harmonics.

  • so, I can get them on any kind of guitar, pick ups?

  • @MehdiGlz i'd recommend dimebucker's, emg 81/85, seymourduncan invader's or blackouts, or anything along those lines

  • This video was a treat! 'Alot of fun!'

  • thanks a lot bro

  • he is Messi

  • Fantastic!

  • you cant force things

  • lol this guy sounds like the guy from the episode of south park "asspen" lol "if u dont do french fries then pizza, ur gonna have a bad tiiime. ur gonna have a bad time!lol

  • This guys a high-on

  • HAAAAAAAAAAA...jean shorts :P

  • if some one is watching this a guarantee if someone is watching this they know what a humbucker is 

  • @westsidetrumpet Why? you don't have to be an advanced player to learn or want to learn squealies anyway. It really pees me off when I see people criticising the makers of video lessons for "waffling on" or "over explaining" How F*ckin stupid! I'm sure you'd find a lesson/tutorial more useful it was over-explained as opposed to rushed and vague or generally un-helpful. If you already know the bit being talked about there's that wonderful thing called FAST FORWARD.

  • @christhesnaildriver well excuse the fuck outta me for having slow net and i know how to squeel i just look at vids to find a better technique so get that dick out your ass and stfu and im just saying if some one knows what a squeel is they are gonna know what a humbucker is

  • @westsidetrumpet Your kind of a douche, just thought i'd point that out. :)

  • @DountProductions much obliged

  • 1:48 for first pinches

  • no offense but people who are at the level of learning dimebags tricks should already know about the humbuckers but good lesson

  • @ryanguitarist1 don't be so bloody narrow minded! Firstly - Darryl isn't the only guitarist in the world to have used squealies (though he seems to be the only one to get credit for them...). I came to this video looking for tips to improve my pinch harmonics to play a Quo song of all things (Gerdundula if you're wondering). Secondly - Even an ace guitarist (which I'm certainly not btw!) doesn't mean they have ace tech knowledge about guitars.

  • @christhesnaildriver good point

  • really good video..thanks man!

  • expert village worthy

  • He can talk ALL he wants. These are easily elite lessons that are made very simple

  • i dont see whats wrong with this video, its great

  • none els goes int this much detail, nice lesson thaks

  • informative shit man, i didnt mind the talking. as long as its about guitar :D its fine by me. sick guitar too, its like a strat with SG color, and i usually hate strats.

  • good lesson, man!

    even people who should never come close to a guitar got it crystal-clear.

  • i dont want to know about pick-ups

    i want to know how to sound like dimebag!!! :D

  • omg soooooooooooooooooooooooo amazing says the sarcastic comment

  • Thanks , you have been very helpful !

  • He kinda sounds like Lars Ulrich at some points... O.o

  • wtf this video ? huhh ?

  • you suck

    

  • Wow. for some reason i just got it. thanks.

  • THis helped!!!

  • why is this dude wearing denim shorts this isnt the 90s

  • @KreigjohnsonA7X plenty of people wear denim shorts...

  • @333reid333 i know i was joking man

  • hahhahah i use the same picks :D

  • What guitar is that??

  • leave him alone everyone i thought that was a useful video

  • fucking lie

    

  • those aren´t the squeals man!

  • you know, i don't really mind people talking all the way through a video, but your voice is kinda annoying at a certain moment :p

  • supermouth.i want to shatter you head with that ugly strat.or fix into your ass.you prickhead

  • First few seconds I was thinking Why is that left guy standing there?

  • you are gonna get out the butt and get into the fuck,if you dont come up with that squalies quickly

  • this aint the way pantera threw down harmonics man. i mean dime did those harmonics too but dimebags signature squealies were when he would harmonic the g string with his left hand and hit that whammy bar with his picking hand. check out the video Dimebag Darrell - Squealing lesson

  • @ldavis6064 that duznt change how he plays it...that's just what he duz with the harmonic...that's advanced harmonic executing

  • @newoaklandlocal na i think you misunderstood me, what i was sayin was those squealies arent even high piched enough to be like panteras. when you hit that whammy it makes em scream like a baby in hell compared to the ones on this vid

  • @ldavis6064 but i dont think dimebag had a floating trem..a standard one only goes lower pitch....

  • @newoaklandlocal  yeah he used a floyd rose

  • I want a humbucker. Seymore duncan invader. Tasty.

  • Pinch harmonics on a stratocaster/telecaster - the fuck I care. Fucking sucks.

  • can you use single coils for pinch harmonics?

  • @slaytallidetherafold yes you just need a high gain

  • @ldavis6064 cool thanks. my amp is a sp 10. i have a starcaster. pinch harmonics just dont work out too good. they fade. thanks anyways.

  • or otherwise know as a hum bucker lol

  • STOP TALKING AND PLAY THE FUCKING GUITAR !!!!!!!!!!!! do he eat tongue ? xD...

  • SHUT THE HELL UP AND SHOW US HOW TO PITCH HARMONIC YOU ASS!!!!

  • dude what the heck are talking about.. single coiled or not doesn't eve matter for squeals if u want louder squeals turn up the volume..-.-

  • dude nice job but i still dont get it...

  • nothing, NOTHING

  • BORING! jejejejeje

  • (1:55) 1:57-2:00 (2:05) seems like he talking red neck or somethin

  • too much bum...not enough dick

  • you want to feel miserable angry mad and just straight up wantng to murder some1? care about peoples comments

  • Pretty good!! thanks for the advice

  • I'll never learn how the fuck do it :(

  • @dugib ehhh I thought the same ages ago, just practice man, and I still suck at guitar!

  • @dugib keep at it man, all it takes is a bit of practice :)

  • @dugib trust me: i had this mentality to. it took awhile, but what i did was watch TONS of videos and find what worked for me bro. you'll get it :D

  • "Like Pantera" My ass

  • lol I suck I can't do it.

  • @Bigboss1432Lol naw... lot's of ppl can't. it's very precise. to much thumb touching, and you mute it. not enough, its either a full note or partially muted note, but more than a squeal lol.

  • really useful! thanks!!!

  • thx alot man! it really helped me play those notes!

  • i like to call them pinchies :D

  • u rock dude !!!!

  • I feel like this is a good video; educational, and I can't make any of these sounds. I only have an acoustic guitar. Hahaha.

  • ohh thats how u do it.ive been trying to play that in scream aim fire.thanks dude

  • Now i can finally learn Pantera songs!!

  • well all you saying is so much talking, i play guitar for over 10 years and have learned something from the dude. keep practicing people

  • waaaaaay to much talking

  • three single coils strats have a higher pitch squeals my guitar leaves your ears ringing for days because i max out the mids and treble and i throw in boss od3 with the tone contol and volume maxed

  • Lotta talk, but it was a good, informative lesson.

  • booooooooo

  • your pinches suck donkey balls really hard ^^ learn to play before teaching

  • @ViGMetal i suppose u do better? make ur own video fool

  • in a les paul i must use treble or rythm ? or treble & rythm ?

  • Am I just not understanding something? Can this be further explained to me by someone please? I just can't seem to get it

  • Wow, wrong, wrong and wrong again.

    Pinch harmonics will hit really well regardless of what pickup position you're in, what type of pickup it is and where you hit them. If your rig is well designed, which usually requires custom built gear, you can get squeels even with your tone control cutting the treble.

    I can hit pinches on any guitar I own in any position, anywhere on the strings. It's all a matter of gain frequency saturation and the circuit emphasizing the right harmonics.

  • @JonDeth Oukeeey...BUT.

    With the treble all the way down you can`t make them scream like dimebag used to, hehe.

  • @darkisois18 you can if your equipment is designed for it but, next to nothing you buy from the store or a catalog is going to deliver.

  • @JonDeth Well then...if that the case, I would like to hear them then. Would be a breaktrough within the artificial harmonic environment, due to the muddiness of the harmonics, like I imagine they would sound. Cheers.

  • @darkisois18 I do it in one of my videos demonstrating an overdrive I designed from the ground up and had slaved over for 2 weeks due to the enclosure being such a challenge.

    I can hit them not just in the bridge but the neck as well with the treble cut.

    Mud nothing, they groan and snarl just fine.

  • @JonDeth In the meantime you received and wrote the comment, i checked your videos, the first one the death screamer, I just could not stand the poor sound quality the video had, the saturation on my headphones nearly put me on deaf mode, and the other one where you are with your guitar, I think that yes, it`s real defined and clear, I mean the sound, but the tone of that video still got a nice amount of treble.

  • @darkisois18 The treble is cut on the guitar, not the pedal and amp. It's a scooped midrange tone with the treble and bass boosted like what you hear in Industrial, Numetal and yes, even Pantera who was notorious for this type of tone.

    Just the same, I can cut the treble on the pedal and amp and still get wicked pinch harmonics. I just don't care for the midrange driven, stuffy nose tone of the 80's that all the going nowhere shredders still used today.

    In the commercial market, nobody likes it

  • @JonDeth @JonDeth Ok, all well and good, at the end of the day you`ve gotta find your tone, if that`s your tone, fine by me.

    Although I think I`m getting a little of topic here (sorry everyone) the 80`s tone is still being used by many bands of diverse genres of music, and believe it or not,

  • @darkisois18 when I turn the radio on and set it to the rock stations, I always hear someone from now, shredding and tearing it apart, maybe not like it used to be, but yeah, the shred can take you to the sky, IF you know when and when not to.

    Well, anyways, it`s just all about feeling what you play and try to others to feel it to.

    C ya.

  • @darkisois18 I use the 80's type tones frequently enough but ultimately when it comes time to record or compose, the mids get gutted, bass/treble boosted and modulation/depth effects are abandon. Even with 80's metal, for rhythm anyway, plenty of bands would use the scooped out mids, sharp jagged thrashy tone.

    For a guy like myself playing modern thrash doing both rhythm and lead at once, scooped tone is the only way to go. Cut treble with boosted mids and bass lacks balls and attitude.

  • @JonDeth Ok, nvm

  • @darkisois18 there tends to be a lot of tone snobbery online from shredders who insist upon using tubes and your tone being all thick, smooth and layered in chorus and delay. 25 years ago that was fine but today, it's useless unless you're doing instrumental work.

    I hate modulation and depth effects, they're crutches as is midrange.

    Bottom line is if you want great pinch harmonics, you need a good solid state pedal in front of whatever type of amp you choose be it tube, s.s. or digital.

  • @JonDeth OK NEVERMIND

  • @darkisoangel you brought it up!

  • @JonDeth Ok ok! Now im taking it down (if that makes any sense)

  • No one told me the hint lol. Now I will shred it!!!

  • blah blah blah :D

    he will never stop talking i think :D

  • @MastaJuMp Well Its A fucken Lesson dumass Fucknen idiots Who ever Like this comment ^^

  • What's your problem? You don't have to watch the whole video.

  • Okay placement of the pickup has NOTHING to do with harmonics. That's all in the string. NOTHING to do with pickups... They just don't come out that clear when over the bridge. But you can certainly get harmonics behind the middle and rhythm pickups.

  • well the pickups on a lot of guitars in the neck position have less output for rythm playing, so on a lot of guitars it does matter.

    but you are right that it's not really where the pickup is as it is what kind of pickup it is.

  • Yeah, this is true. A harmonic well never come out nearly as clear on a neck pup compared to bridge. I just love it when tools like this guy explain things when they don't even know what's going on XD

  • omg ur a moron stop talking and just show us what to do

  • omg shut the fuck up!!

  • Great lesson! Ive seen here many diffrent lesson about pinch harmonics and no one even mentioned about which pickup you should choose. Thx!

  • this guy is great, really easy to listen to

  • i just want to ask..what type of pickups do u have there?..i have the stock Ibanez ACH pickups and am wondering if i can get that out of them, and does it depend in any way on the amp?...thnx

  • Uhm any1 know the guitar he's playing. is it a fender strat a squire? or what

  • Fender. spuire doesn't make em like that

  • This video is terrible.. You shouldnt say learn like pantera or even bring up squealies.. this is pinch harmonics.. squealies refer to the dumping of string tension and hitting harmonic on way back to normal tension

  • I'm noticing you tube is the best place to get in an argument relevant or irrelevant to the videos topic.

  • @FootToTheThroat like. L.O.G

  • @FootToTheThroat NO ITS NOT! NOW LETS ARGUE ABOUT THIS WHILE SAYING EACH OTHER HAS NO LIFE EVE THOUGH IT JUST SHOWS WHO DOESNT BY WASTING TIME AGRUEING ABOUT STUPID STUFF!

    lol. :3

  • none of these people giving lessons on this are saying everything you need to do... theres a secret in there that it seems nobody wants to tell everyone after i figured it out this shit is hella easy

  • Thanx for a awesum lesson^^

  • pretty nice lesson!

  • "once i go pass the pickup, nothing" love this guy

  • You love him now, but when you hear that he smokes weed you'll start hating him, right? Fucking victims of propaganda.

  • what the fuck are you talking about man?

  • What part didn't you understand?

    If you belong in that (approximately) 60% of people - which I presume - who say that marijuana is a dangerous plant that shouldn't be legalized, you are as stupid as a terrorist. When weed is illegal the money that comes from its sale goes straight to the crime organizations that support terrorism by, for example, selling weapons to them.

    Question the illegality of pot!

  • @Aivopiirakka weed isnt dangerous ... its just pathetic. you have to a pussy that doesnt know how to enjoy yourself properly to smoke weed. to take it as seriously as you do, god knows what your deal is!

  • When something that I like to do, makes me a criminal, I sure as hell try to change things.

    And by the way, do you even know what a "dimebag" is?

  • @Aivopiirakka the reason "dimebag" is in my name isnt koz of what it is, but WHO it is.

  • Ok, so you're saying that Dimebag Darrell (R.I.P.) was a pathetic person, because he used to smoke a lot of marijuana? Get your facts straight asshole.

  • @Aivopiirakka no im not, im a fucking huge Darrell fan, im just saying that i would respect him (and the rest of PanterA) a LOT more if they didnt do and advertise drugs as much as they did.

  • Yeah they would have done it more privately, I guess. To be honest, I got my influence on trying cannabis from Pantera, but back then I was young and stupid.

    Now I'm 18 and I still like smoking occasionally. The truth is, that most people have a wrong view on cannabis, and that makes potsmokers outsiders in many situations. In fact, it is just a good way to relax with your friends and to make your thinking more creative and deeper. It's not like something that starts to control your life.

  • @Aivopiirakka i dno man, from my experience, weed automatically puts the gimpiest of faggots into social groups. which means that there are a lot of weed-smokers that i know who are ULTRA fags, but think theyr really awesome just koz of weed. and in these cases, they did let it control their life. so thats pretty much why im so against drugs in general

  • Drugs in general is a pretty fucking large thing. And sorry, I don't understand your thing about fags and ULTRA fags, but I really don't even want to.

    As you are against drugs, you don't drink alcohol. But I bet you know people who do drink. What's you're opinion on them? I suppose you know the harms of alcohol.

    P.S. Talking about pathetic behavior, calling someone a faggot as an insult is like the description of it. If this argument doesn't take a serious course, I'm going to stop it here.

  • lol wtt dude chill out...

    all i was saying is that you get really pathetic humans .. and those people usually turn to drugs and then go like: yeah! im a pot-head now so im cool!

    and yes im aware of the harms of alcohol. and to answer your question, i think people who drink loads to fit in are pathetic too! like i said: im against drugs in general. people who do anything to fit in are pathetic - but drugs is the main source of that.

  • There's a fallacy in your argumentation. That means you don't have any good reasoning for your claims.

    Dude, I bet you want to stay in your opinion and shit, but use your fucking brain! You can't say such things as "Pathetic people turn to drugs" or "Drug users just want to fit in", unless you do have some proofs that show your claims true. It all depends on a person.

    I can see that you admire Dimebag very much. But a thing he would have respected is being a real person! You're acting stupid!

  • a) i dno what makes you think you know what dimebag "would have wanted" ... but its really not up to you to decide.

    b) im being a "real person" because im not giving in to the typical bullshit trends that everyone follows. and THAT is pretty much what pantera was about ... not following the trends!

  • I admit that I don't know exactly what he would have wanted, but I sure as hell know he wouldn't have wanted his fans to try to look exactly like him. I bet you're going to grow a beard/mustache compilation just like he had, when you start to get hair in those places. (I watched your live vid.)

    Don't you understand that you are following a trend right now! You're following a trend called "PREJUDICES". And you can get away from it by starting to accept people's habits, and not judge them.

  • oh man ... im not prejudiced you dumbass, i just know what i dont like ... and i dont like people taking drugs to place themselves into a social group.

    and when you say i look like dimebag, the only comparison is Dean Guitars. and they are the best guitars out there, so im not about to change because of my image.

  • So know it's like that. If you would have said that in your first comment, we wouldn't have had an argument of 4 days.

    Instead of that, you started the argument with this:

    "weed isnt dangerous ... its just pathetic. you have to a pussy that doesnt know how to enjoy yourself properly to smoke weed."

    Yeah, I know that there are people who start using drugs with a secret motive to fit in. But that's fucking unbelievable. I hate you for thinking I'm one of those. I do it ONLY for myself.

  • chill out, he just said he liked the lesson

  • Good lesson man! Your improvisation its not that good, but 5/5

  • nice lesson 5 starz

  • HALF you nerds aren't even paying attention...Shhhh, I'm trying to listen....

  • You can pinch harmonics with single coils?

  • @pedrok60 yes

  • This video is so lame. He should just pick up a set of 81/85's and scratch that setup.

  • hey does anyone know if this would work on a guitar with two humbuckers

  • For sure. It'll work on any electric.

  • are you serious? i thought you knew common guitar playing sense?

  • dude no one knows everythin about what they do unless theyre like a proffesional or something and i thought it wouldnt work because in the video he said it wouldnt work any where over the humbucker.

  • sorry you just seem to talk like you know everything.

  • thats weird melvin cause my 92 floydrose strat has a double locking tremelo. where do you think they came from?

  • im not saying all strats dont have it. you can put it on a strat. and im sure some custom ones have it. but standard strats dont have it. and neither does the strat in this video.

  • also u sound like a preacher

  • i can do pinch harmonics on the neck pickup

  • so did you just learn this or what.... THESE ARE NOT PANTERA SQUEALS.

  • @MelvinWren suck a chode bucko.

  • you retard dimebag would do a pinch harmonis and then pull the floyd rose, THAT would make the squeals.

  • yea i know what a squeal is. and not once in this video that shows you how to use "squeals like pantera" does it mention that. just pinch harmonics. strats dont even have a floyd rose bridge. this guys just a fucking retarded stoner who seems like he just learned a pinch harmonic.

  • i know that but it takes common guiitar player sense to know to pull the floyd rose back during a harmonic pinch to do the squeals, ON A GUITAR WITH THE FLOYD ROSE. i can do pantera squeals on my PRS-SE 22 Custom with justr a whammy and pinch harmonics

  • you cant do SQUEALS like pantera on that guitar. im talking about the squeals at the end of cemetary gates. those are squeals. not just regular pinch harmonics which an example of that is also in cemetary gates.

  • there are certain tremolo bars that are similair to the floyd rose in that you can also PULL the bar... you can use that bar with a pinch harmonic to squeal... it just depends on if you have a whammy or a tremolo or a floyd rose. the floyd rose is the easiest way to do it, though

  • also problems with most whammy bars you can only go one way.

  • exactly thats why i only play guitars with a floyd rose or a tremolo... or without either
