Besides good technique, the next best way to bring them out is high gain and boosted treble. I don't mean high gain like indistinguishable tone-deficit gain, but at least something with a solid pair of 'em.

Try switching pick types.I used Fender thins for almost ten years and makeing m stretchs squeel was ver hard to do.I switched to Dunlop .60 Gray picks and it almost naturaly happens when ever I tight pick a note.
i find pitch harmonics (i think that the rite name :s) quite simple in technique. i use a small pick, i hav these freakish jim dunlop things.. called "stubby" or something. if u hold these with your thumb towards the bottom of the pic (where is touches the strings) when u play the note (works best on high strings) u get the harmonic... maybe that helps?
