Can't believe no other comments, love it, nice sound, how do you get the guitar to scream? I still to this day have no idea lol

Far too kind :) The pinched harmonics, this is something that I guess comes from feel. I have the pick held with maybe 2mm showing past my thumb, when I want a harmonic, I rotate my thumb slightly so the flesh of my thumb strikes the string right after the pick. As these are harmonics, you do need to strike the correct part of the string. The exact spot moves around a bit depending on the string & where you have the fret pressed. Generally, it's somewhere between the middle and neck pickups though. There are so many videos on here from different people telling you they have the right way to do the harmonics... I stole the way I do them from an interview with some big guitarist in Guitar World back in the early 90s.. I think it may even have been with Sambora. I would say... go with whatever technique works for you :)

@@Magnus_Wolfe So making it scream is with the pick? picking in different way? Eddie Van Halen had it to a tee, also Richie sound was awsome

@@Usephonetoomuch yes, your picking hand will control any artificial/pinched harmonics. The fretting hand has control for any natural harmonics (primarily 5th,7th & 12th notes in the octave from your open position).

@@Magnus_Wolfe thanks for the info, a bit over my head, I only know about 5 chords lol, Bon Jovi went downhill fast after Richie Sambora left, tragic , Phil X is ok but he hasn't got the "Richie Sound"
