How do they do this trick?

Real feedback blows all that artificial crap out of the water.Just turn that Pre up on your amp and get a sufficient amount of volume and find the sweet spot in front of your speaker(s).

It's like catching a nice wave!

Thanks for the posts guys, the feedback way makes more sense. I know how to tap and get the harmonic to sound (I have learned every evh lick there is LOL, like the intro to women in love where he does tha sorta) So with out micing my amp at 11 it will be pretty hard to replicate this on my pod xt and record! I suppose I can always cross fade the note being fingered normally with its harmonic! think this would work?

Recording feed back with a POD, J-Station or whatever:

Split the singnal from your guitar. One side goes to any amp and the other goes into your POD. Set up your POD to record and turn up the amp. Stand in front of the amp and presto! Feedback. I like to use a small amp for this. It doesn't matter what the amp sounds like, it's not being recorded. It's just there to help you sustain.
 
Even so, it's still not anywhere near as cool as real feedback. You can get all kinds of different overtones, and change them - in real time *gasp* - just by turning your guitar, walking a few steps, or changing the note you're playing by bending it. I suppose in a low volume scenario it could be useful, but I'm not rushing to buy one, and neither are most guitarists.

feedback sustain for someone with no amp?

I only use the POD. I have thought about a small amp so that I could mike the POD and the amp, but I am not sure if it is worth the money (thought of getting a Tech 21 10 thing).

Are there ANY options for getting feedback sustain? I gather from this discussion there may be approaches to this, but I'd like to know more.
