Its a kind of pinched harmonic, you play the string and quickly mute it with your picking hand and take your palm off the string to let it ring, you only get the harmonic in certain places along and above the pickups depending on where you are fretting and palming.
You also need high gain setting on the amp, ive not heard anyone play it on a clean amp.
