Here are a couple of other tricks I've learned over the years.
Use Morse code as a rhythm for a song. Rush did that with YYZ. That's what the weird intro is, Morse code saying YYZ.
Push the whammy bar down as far as you can until the strings magnetically stick to the pickups.
I have a boss pitch shifter. I set it on pitch shift (not harmonize) and turn the knob back and forth while letting a note ring out. This is another Tom Morello trick.
