just me barchording and relying on feedback and the unexpected harmonics of wot happened during experiment.

Great guitar tone Jim, but I don't hear any feedback. I've always loved the use of controlled feedback in guitar playing. Of course, the pioneer and master of controlled feedback was Jimi Hendrix. Have a listen to "Machine Gun" from Band of Gypsys (especially from about 2:30).

Another example I've always loved is Terry Kath's "Free Form Guitar" sound experiment from the Chicago Transit Authority album (1969).

I used to use feedback a lot back in the 70s and 80s. I found that I usually got better sounds when I played with my back to the amp. If you face the amp, you tend to get a lot of high-pitched squeals that aren't very musical. Of course, you need lots of gain from the guitar, and the amp cranked. A whammy bar helps to manipulate the feedback in some really cool ways. And you'll notice in the Band of Gypsys video that Hendrix tapped the back of the headstock and neck to induce feedback too. There are a lots of little tricks you can learn by experimenting.

Finally, I found this video on YouTube which shows another way of getting feedback by using a small, battery operated amp.

I happen to have one of those Marshall practice amps, except mine is the double stack one. I'll have to give that a try sometime.
