Hey guys! I need some help here. You know the guy from ZZ Top, Billy Gibbons?
Anyhowz, i have a question. Please don"t think I2m stupid or anything. In their song La grange, how does he get that squealing sound on the guitar as he is moving towards the end of the solo? It sounds like a harmonic, (hope this is the right word) bu i am pretty sure it isn"t. And, to make it sound really stupid,
ocasionally i can get the same sound out of my guitar and i haven"t got a clue how. Is it because i pick harder or i slightly touch the wires with my picking hand, i dont have a clue. Please people, help me out here. I would really like to
learn to play that.
P l e a s e? :(
