    Finally! A tutorial that actually clearly shows how to do it. Everywhere I look they just do it with a camera angle that shows me nothing and then I somehow have to still figure out what I'm doing wrong. Thank you so much for this

      I also didn't understand for a very long time, but like 2 days ago I was practing a song and for some reason I finally could do it everytime like it was magic... Fr I've been trying to learn pinch harmonics for more than a year by now, but I could never do it properly and with consistency, but now i can do it like 8/10 times I try to do it (At least in the lower 3 strings). I'm gonna leave my tips here so maybe it helps you (not saying is right or correct, but its what is working for me, and I'm a completely begginer on guitar)
      - The touch of your finger on the picked string that they say its gotta be super slight, doesn't need to be as slight as you think, sometimes I just put too weight in my hand to touch the string, and still I get the P.H, so don't be afraid to touch the string (but this really is the neat part)
      - When I pick the string I kinda twist my pulse from up to down and from right to the left at the same time (this is the movement that makes my finger touch the string)
      - Try not to rest your finger on the string after you picked, this will kill the vibration and the harmonic. Take your right hand away from the strings and control the P.H bending the picked string
      - The first time I had the feeling on how to do it I was with an overdrive pedal and a distortion pedal in max distortion possible, giving me huge gain, so this helped the P.H to come out easily, so you should crank that gain and distortion up to make it easier to feel when it's coming and what movement you did that made it come out.
      - My impression it's that is more about a feeling on doing it, I can't explain... I've been watching tutorial and practicing for months, maybe more than a year and I could never do it... But out of nowhere 2 days ago I realize the feeling of the technique and suddenly I'm doing it. It's CRAZY!
      Hope this can help you in some way, don't give up, P.H are so satisfying to land...
