u no how when ur playing and like u can make the guitar sound very high pitched but it looks like ur playing low. for example if i played the 8th fret on the g string u can make it sound normal and then u make it sound very high pitched i was just wondering how u do that... an example of a song that has it is avenged sevenfold beast and the harlot 2 minutes and 14 seconds into the song...................thanks
I think maybe you're talking about bending the string. You push the string up toward the center of the fingerboard and raise the pitch of the note. Take a look at the photos and videos showing you how to do this at Cyberfret's string bending page.
And welcome to the musical madhouse.

Or you could be talking about "pinch harmonics" which is a technique for getting a high pitched squeal from the guitar.
