This is hands down the best explanation of pinch harmonics I’ve ever see or heard - I have been able to do it for years but never really knew exactly what I was doing - until now. Great video
Thank you! Catching the harmonic with the side of the string (instead of the top) made a huge difference to me in terms of accurately getting the harmonic without extra noise or killing the sound
GHS boomers, I look on eBay and buy what's cheapest in packs of 3. What's important to me is the gauge. I try and match what tension and tuning suits each guitar. Some guitars need heavier strings to sound better where it doesn't matter to others. General rule (Floyd rose) 9-46 for standard or Eb tuning. 10-52 for lower tunings. Fixed bridge 10-52 for all tunings
Great job...Crystal clear...So many potential avenues of exploration...Thanks I'll be driving everyone crazy with this now... Like Zakk W with pick squeals...lol.
I got a Washburn N4 and putting the whammy bar back to get Dime Squeals is so much more comfortable, however, the body is too small in order to get a good dip out of the whammy bar. I really like putting the bar back because it looks so much more cooler and just is more comfortable to me. There's a Washburn Dimebag sig at my local pawnshop for $299, and it's beat to Hell, but I really want it.
Some guitars are slightly easier than others, but not really. If you're having trouble then I'd turn the gain up slightly and practice on easy ones around the 3rd 5th and 7th fret on the G/3rd string.
Thank you, now i finally understand why pinch harmonics do what they do i didnt realise the thumb was meant to hit the string in that way i thought it was just meant to strike right through like a pick
I had DR or GHS 10-46, if your 3rd string is going out of tune I'd try using a file and etching the bottom of the clamping pad on the nut so it grips a little better
Nice tutorial man, most tutorials on youtube for this kind of stuff either don't go in depth enough or talk way too much about the technique. This seemed just right
Fucking AMAZING video, I've been playing guitar for 2 years and I feel like I'm stuck, I practise some exercice for 1 hour on a daily basis, you know, coordination exercices, picking exercices, etc. but I'm not sure if that's gonna help me at all with my playing, I'm somewhat of self-taught and I'm not sure if this is the way to go, could you give me some advice please? I've seen all of your Pantera cover videos and I've gotta say that I wish I could play like you man, just.. fucking amazing.
Don't burn yourself out on excersizes. I learnt and still do from playing songs from favarite artists and picking up their bag of tricks. It has to be fun, just try and make sense of how their solos are constructed and scales they used over certain chords and shapes. You'll learn a lot more in a practical way.
LambChopper678 . Thanks for the advice!! at first, when I got my guitar I started playing songs from bands that I enjoy, but I needed skills to be able to play them so I started off playing easier songs. Then after the first year I gave it a try to some Pantera songs and somehow I've managed to play Cowboys From Hell (except the shredding part on the solo where I tend to "improvise" lol) and 5 Minutes Alone, so I guess you're right! Keep rocking and posting videos man!!! I'm getting a Cort X11 with Floyd Rose soon so I'll be coming back to this video somewhen! :P
+String Shredder 12 The floyds on those Deans didn't stay 100%. The originals do on my other guitars though. The korean Dime guitars need to be better quality
@@LambChopper678 How about the bridge on your Alexi 600? Just waiting for a greeny in the mail but its LTD, kinda sceptical 'cause I wanna fuck that whammy bar up! 🤣 not at the cost of tuning every ten seconds of course
+Ryan Day some rings have holes in different spots, that one is for a neck pickup that is narrower than the bridge on floyd guitars as well as being low profile.
i have a dean vendetta 1000 with the floyd, i can dip the bar as far down as i want, but it doesnt pull up nearly as far as yours, any reason why? would a lower tuning help?
Nice! What do you use for sustain? Are there settings that make these harmonics more noticeable? Do you have to set up the guitar a certain way? I have tried these techniques but mine do not ring out like yours do. Your stuff sound right on point!!
The amp and gain structure is really important. Pretty much the more gain the easier it is. Maybe try putting an overdrive in front of your amp like a tube screamer or Zakk OD to an already distorted signal
I wouldn't know what to teach about that dude. I don't think I do anything special in that area. If there is anything I do that I can pass on I'd be happy to share. I try and play each part as close to the artist that wrote the song so I guess I try and pick it the same way to get the same feel and tones.
Only way you can break strings is only if you tune it too much high, like...if you tighten strings too much, and you can know it by looking at place where you insert string, there are these rings going around string, that thing shows how many times you can tighten the string, it'll get shorter and shorter till it meets the end and it'll go out, or more like...pop out of a sudden, be aware, do not recommend watching up close it, string can hit your face, dunno how painful or serious it is, but that's a pretty tighten up string that just got loose, so you can imagine. Or if the string at tighteners wasn't properly tightened or sealed, or something like that, then string can bend too much and break at that point.
I like doing this but I’ll be honest,I had a bad string that had been striped out so much that it would come out doing this and ever since then(1 week ago) over been to scared to do this even with anew string
Im looking forward to getting myself a new guitar for my 18th birthday, ive been playing for about 4 years so ive concidered getting something a bit more serious this time around, the dimebag dixie rebbel, or a jackson sl2 pro are my 2 picks so far, any advice guys? :)
nice video and good explainings. I have a question: I have a Jackson KEXMG kelly guitar with floyd rose tremolo, but if I use the whammy bar its out of tune right away. do you have tips for me?
Hi. I love your videos, but I have a question. I have a Dean Dave Mustaine VMNT Angel Of Death... is it pretty hard to do pinch harmonics on this guitar or do I have to train more? Are pinch harmonics easier to play on a Dean ML 79 Floyd? And is this a good guitar? Because I´d like to buy this one and would like to know what you think about it.
Did you remove the tape on the neck pickup? Pics ive seen of that guitar the neck pickup doesnt have the white around the edges like his actual one. Yours does though Im confused haha
Hey man, terrific job on the squeals! Quick question: Can we have a low action on a floyd rose guitar, and still raise the pitch considerably? Like Dime did in the outro to Cemetery Gates
+LambChopper678 Hi LambChopper678, can you tell me please if you bite your fingenails on your left hand, and if it hurts when your fingers are on the neck when you're playing guitar ?

I already know how to do this I just really fucking love this guys videos

Thanks, this was really helpful in learning how to do these tricks as a self-taught guitarist.
I wanted to learn how to play Executioner's Tax harmonics from the intro and I got to this video, great tutorial 🤘
Great job...Crystal clear...So many
potential avenues of exploration...Thanks
I'll be driving everyone crazy with this now...
Like Zakk W with pick squeals...lol.
I did a vid on setting up a Floyd rose

Thanks. One of the things I didn't get around to since ages. Very well shown! It's actually quite easy, once you know what you got to do. :)
Mate, this is the best harmonics lesson I've seen: You better summarise in 6 minutes what most videos can't do in 20!
Thank you, now i finally understand why pinch harmonics do what they do i didnt realise the thumb was meant to hit the string in that way i thought it was just meant to strike right through like a pick
Thank you so much, you explained it so much better than everyone else I have watched it seems so simple now.
I had DR or GHS 10-46, if your 3rd string is going out of tune I'd try using a file and etching the bottom of the clamping pad on the nut so it grips a little better

Great vid..
Thanks for uploading this
no dramas mate, glad you liked it
Nice tutorial man, most tutorials on youtube for this kind of stuff either don't go in depth enough or talk way too much about the technique. This seemed just right
can i please Have this beautiful guitar for no other reason than asking nicely?
Rouwiinator Alina Lopes, Lana Rhoades
I wish I found this video about 6 years ago because holy shit this is an excellent tutorial.
nice one mate, thanks a lot
They tend to sound best though they work easily on the lower 4. The b and e don't seem to ring as loudly.
Best video on TH-cam so far

I wonder how good you are now
ur prob insane now
@@Ericpach3so are you better at guitar now?
I've never learnerd to use the thumb, i use my nail on my index finger, it's kind of a different sound but i should start to use the thumb
beautifully explained 👍🙌
FANTASTIC !!!!
Dude, keep still rockin' very useful, greetings
Great job
Nice lesson lamb.Thanks.One question in the art of shredding solo, you squeal only the third string from down, right?
Kostas Delis Yes the G, it's the only one I use for squeals
Real good intro lick
great man, keep them coming
Hey quick question does your Floyd stay in perfect I mean 100% in tune?
Great videos btw
+String Shredder 12 The floyds on those Deans didn't stay 100%. The originals do on my other guitars though. The korean Dime guitars need to be better quality
+LambChopper678 I see . thanks for the input on that
@@LambChopper678 How about the bridge on your Alexi 600? Just waiting for a greeny in the mail but its LTD, kinda sceptical 'cause I wanna fuck that whammy bar up! 🤣 not at the cost of tuning every ten seconds of course
Great stuff yeah i like the joe satch way too!!
Veeeeeeeeeeery frkn nice man!!! Thx A LOT!!!
Can you do a tutorial on how to put strings in guitars that have floyd roses i just barley got one and have no clue
im not sure if he said this in the video but you want to be on the bridge pickup(have your pickup switch all the way down)
This makes complete sense! Thanks for the video! ::upped!::
Squeals sound soooo fucking badass!!!
Would any white pickup ring work on this guitar? Or do they need to be a certain size?
+Ryan Day some rings have holes in different spots, that one is for a neck pickup that is narrower than the bridge on floyd guitars as well as being low profile.
Got the same guitar, cant decide whether or not I should remove the sticker!
What sticker?
i have a dean vendetta 1000 with the floyd, i can dip the bar as far down as i want, but it doesnt pull up nearly as far as yours, any reason why? would a lower tuning help?

pretty clear exlplaination and inspired me much....thanks a lot dude ...keep that guitar screaming still.... .😀👍🙏
Is you floyd not recessed, like a top mount? They don't pull up a far, it's like they were only designed to dive bomb and small flutter. Bugger
4:31 is a JoJo reference (if you listen to il vento d'oro at 2:34)
How much pressure can the whammy bar take cos I'm worried IL brake it?
Can you make a video on your picking technique please!!
Awesome lesson, and where did you get that that razorback? When I look for them online it only shows the new ones with the spikes.
Thank you!
thanks dude i appreciate it much . But can you make a video about spring tension and string tension? bcs i cant get it bout this things . Thanks
I wouldn't know what to teach about that dude. I don't think I do anything special in that area. If there is anything I do that I can pass on I'd be happy to share. I try and play each part as close to the artist that wrote the song so I guess I try and pick it the same way to get the same feel and tones.
how do you go that far back on the bar when i do it the string breaks
singltry he might be using a 0.0008-0.032 strings
You are good men
More video please from🇲🇾🙏
What pedal. You used brother?
Can i do some of this with a single coil strat ? I use harmonics a lot but have never been able to hit those sqeals
Should I be worried about breaking a string? I'm always afraid that, when I pull back on the whammy bar, I'll break a string or two.
Never, don't be silly
Only way you can break strings is only if you tune it too much high, like...if you tighten strings too much, and you can know it by looking at place where you insert string, there are these rings going around string, that thing shows how many times you can tighten the string, it'll get shorter and shorter till it meets the end and it'll go out, or more like...pop out of a sudden, be aware, do not recommend watching up close it, string can hit your face, dunno how painful or serious it is, but that's a pretty tighten up string that just got loose, so you can imagine.

thank you verry much, for lesson
how much did you loosen the springs?
What type of GHS do you use bcs many type i saw at GHS sites .
Playing the exact same guitar as you
Where do you get the cream pickup ring? Does it have to be specific to the pickups or will any work?
Ryan Day92 the pickup ring does not affect the tone in any way. Purely for looks
I like doing this but I’ll be honest,I had a bad string that had been striped out so much that it would come out doing this and ever since then(1 week ago) over been to scared to do this even with anew string
Im looking forward to getting myself a new guitar for my 18th birthday, ive been playing for about 4 years so ive concidered getting something a bit more serious this time around, the dimebag dixie rebbel, or a jackson sl2 pro are my 2 picks so far, any advice guys? :)
Jackson for Heavy Rock and Metal and stuff like this. Top of the line
nice video and good explainings. I have a question: I have a Jackson KEXMG kelly guitar with floyd rose tremolo, but if I use the whammy bar its out of tune right away. do you have tips for me?
Death Metal Thrash Metal do you have the locking nut?
Death Metal Thrash Metal Make sure the bridge is level with the body. Plus make sure the locking but is locked
Can i do the squek with Les Pault no whammy bar??? is there any way??
How do u get a good Harmonic squeal on the 3 and 2 fret seeing as those aren't natural harmonics
+Cannibalkorntallica123 Yes they are, not exactly on the fret though. 3.1 and 2.3
Hi. I love your videos, but I have a question.
I have a Dean Dave Mustaine VMNT Angel Of Death... is it pretty hard to do pinch harmonics on this guitar or do I have to train more?
Are pinch harmonics easier to play on a Dean ML 79 Floyd? And is this a good guitar? Because I´d like to buy this one and would like to know what you think about it.
I love cats and kitties Your gear doesn't determine your skill. Try practicing👍
I have a guitar with a FR Imitation, but when i try to get high the tremolo arm, the strings break out :/
Did you ever consider putting a Bill Lawrence xl-500 in that guitar like Dime had in earlier days?
I have played a guitar with one and it sounds 10x more authentic to Dime's pantera tone than the dimebucker.
+Mitchell OCallaghan I agree, I love the BL, like the Dimebucker to but not as much
hey man i think my floyd rose wasnt set up right cause when i dump the bar its usually tough to do like it looks like yours works good but idk man
I did a tutorial on setting up a floyd rose that might help out a little
alrigth thanks amn appreciate it also sick video your so gnarly haha keep it up man
Did you remove the tape on the neck pickup? Pics ive seen of that guitar the neck pickup doesnt have the white around the edges like his actual one. Yours does though Im confused haha
+Ryan Day Yeah, I took off the tape. Had a crap residue and I didn't like it. I noticed on Dime's FBD it had a cream pup ring so I did the same
+LambChopper678 oh okay yeah I would prob do the same if I had that guitar. Been trying to find one I have the DFH atm, hows the FBD play?
Thanks I'll try it
Hey man, terrific job on the squeals! Quick question: Can we have a low action on a floyd rose guitar, and still raise the pitch considerably? Like Dime did in the outro to Cemetery Gates
This is great thank you
are you using normal dunlop tortex or TIII ???
+LambChopper678 Hi LambChopper678, can you tell me please if you bite your fingenails on your left hand, and if it hurts when your fingers are on the neck when you're playing guitar ?
I want one!!!!
Hi , what type of string did u use? and did you have any idea that my string always drop when i do the squeal . thanks
Do the whammy squeals only work well on the G?
stalrunner no, it's just the best harmonic string. The other ones can do ir
Floyd rose original or licensed?
Check out Pete Thorn, How to play eruption. He does a lot better than me
Try looking for Dimebag's ML, not razorback
já dou like antes de começar por que sei que o video vai ser foda
otima video aula
thanks man
I like your dimebuckers
🤘🤘🤘
esse cara é foda fala a verdade?
Ele deveria ter mais inscritos e mais views
that's a great looking guitar man! I honestly think your video was informative! thx!
No whammy squeals for you man, you'll have to sit this one out ;(
I feel like my thumb is too short for this
This is so hard either that or my guitar sucks
_DaDarkCrow_ A poor craftsman blames his tools
Mark Zuckerberg I have a Rogue electric guitar which is like the cheapest ever and the smallest amp in the world don't even start with that crap

Love the confederate flag guitar In the back
Hate the whammy positioned out back. Hate, hate, hate it. Use it like it was designed for.
Dislike on this guy is called Heresy.
