is the D string...its thick enough to give it a good spanking yet think enough to squeal like fuck

definitely, and when you hit em right, they seem to sustain for days

I like hitting them on G, but thats just me.

It all depends on your gauges really.. although i have to agree, when i was learning them i found that the middle strings rung sweetest

i think it depends on your technique, i can pretty much pull a decent harmonic anyhwere.

I always have problems with the d string.. 
can this be because the intonation on my git is fucked up or is it just my technique that needs refining?

I'd say the D string.
Tto the people who say they can pull pinches out all over the fretboard with the greatest of ease,

it's not hard at all, but it is easier on certain strings and everyone has their own techniques and ways of holding the pick...i choke up on it more than usual so piches are easy for me, put others pick differentlyhippy wrote:your saying its hardSuicideNote wrote:I'd say the D string.

I can hit them on D to High E, but I get them best on the B.
Up on the 17th fret and a little vibrato can make them sound like a bitch.

Let's have a competition where everyone records themselves doing pinch harmonics and then puts them on here.
How do you do them?

don't forget the quality of the tone of the guitar and gain.. that makes plenty of difference..

yeah sure.. i can hit pinch harmonics any fret any string without an amp.. though not always on the first try when it comes to those odd frets at the top of the board.

A or D on a regular .010 set.
