I've got an Electra Phoenix Strat, and I've never seen another like it except for one on eBay. I bought for $107 @ a used music store. It plays pretty good for being so inexpensive, but I've just never heard of it. Also, if anyone can help me learn pinch harmonics, that would b good 2. Thanx

THis is really easy but it takes alot of practice.

you want to hold your pick so that your thumb just completely covers the tip of the pick when you look at it in your hand. The idea is to hit the string with the pick and then mute it, so to speak, with your thumb at the same time.
This action takes place really fast, like in the beat of a humming birds wings. It takes days of practice, but once you get it it will be so easy. The more distortion you use the easier it is to get artificial harmonics.

Practice slowly and when you start getting it, do it all the time for a while, in time you won't even have to think about it.

PS Vibratto w/ pinch harmonics really sticks out.
