      LOL, he actually probably forgot, and quickly refreshed his memory. Yes the feel for 'pinch harmonics, but at that level its second nature, so no excuses there. AND the tone was made by him before that do the shoot, all artists dial in their settings on the set amp before a shoot. That is basically the tone that gets recorded, except with more bottom end and a meatier range of frequencies that are required to mix with drums. So that is actually about the tone he plays with,

    I wouldn't say that's him forgetting.
    Pinch harmonics can sound cool but they can really be hit or miss. If you want the exact same sound every time you attempt to do the same pinch harmonic, you have to find where exactly you played it before, also, your guitar and the effects, amp, and cab can also greatly affect the sound and positioning of the pinch harmonic.

    He's allowed to forget. With all the Slipknot, Stone Sour and songs he just likes to play it's a lot to remember. I used to know a couple hundred songs. I'm lucky if I remember 50 of them. Look at bands like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, they're always having to relearn their own songs. Hence why they usually play them differently because they pretty much tab their own songs by ear.

    Composing a song that way might work if you're in a rock band. The most out of the box way to possibly compose is to compose melodies in your head. Learn music theory and notation and then notate the score. You'll come up with lots more interesting things than you would just improvising. Because improvising usually leads to going by patterns you're already comfortable with. Writing your ideas out as sheet music is a much more organized and reliable way of composing.

      kitramsey5150 exactly this. It's the same reason why a lot of musicians will say they need to go learn their songs when they put out new albums before they tour. A lot of playing guitar is just muscle memory

      audio is pretty real, look for jim root masterclass for guitarpart magazine, he just didnt quite get the right pitch on the note and then proceeded to repeat the part till he got it right :3

    @V3xify yea he is playing the right notes, he didnt forget how to play it. You can see by his finger placement. Its the "sweet spot" to hit the harmonic he's looking for.
