		------------------------------------


ah= artificial harmonic


(ok, he probably uses a flanger or phaser in the intro, i'm not sure, but doing an
artificial harmonic up and down the neck sounds good. If you don't know what that is....
find out on some website...it's too hard for me to explain....)
