Ridiculous awesome JP overtones (sound byte included)

[the24thfret]

I've noticed this before, but I really heard it coming out today. For whatever reason, my JP6 always has insane INSANE awesome overtones on A on the 10th fret B string. So I decided to record it (on my tiny little MacBook built-in mic) to see if anyone else has the same note that always rings so sweetly?

Never had a guitar before that did this so pronounced...

Here's a link if anyone wants to hear it... Click "download file" on the right and enter the code you see. http://www.wikiupload.com/download_page.php?id=115707

I've heard this mentioned before, and mine does the same thing, must just be some combination of factors in the construction. It is cool though, cause you always know you can get that note to sing like that regardless of position / volume.

When you're a lefty, every cut wounds deep.

*pats you on the shoulder*

I am also a left hand, like #edrod. "but plays as a right hand"

[CarbonTim27]

Very cool sound; Does your Silo do this as well?

That was the first thing I noticed when I got mine this past xmas. 10th fret on the B... I was just sitting there hit it unplugged and it was incredible. My first thought was... "This is amazing... I can get feedback and it's not even plugged in!!" haha

Add me to the super awesome 10th fret Bstring overtone club! It's interesting that it is only this fret that creates this tone so easily...

Sorry for noob question, are those type of "harmonics" called an overtone?
