Aside from all the nuances in dynamics and phrasing, I'm having trouble even figuring out what the heck Andy is even doing at the end of the song with the harmonics on Rylynn.
It seems he's adding some kind of percussive thing right before the harmonic? I can't figure it out. The harmonics are still sustained so is it each individual string hit then harmonic or what?
It doesn't seem like they are tapped harmonics to me cause there's more time between the 'hit' and the harmonic.
Maybe it's both; a tapped harmonic and then plucked?
I kinda hope not cause that might be too difficult for me to pull off and still have such clear, ringing harmonics. I guess that's what separates me as a mere mortal from the likes of Andy, hehe

Anyways, all help is much appreciated.

It's hammer-on's with the left, and pinch harmonics with the right

Thanks for the help.
I also took a look at Sungha Jung's 2nd Rylynn video and the angle of the camera really shows how he's doing it.

Still having trouble with the end of the song. I have the official tabs but it they seem to be incomplete right at the end.

*edit

I watched the video closely and saw he was doing a hammer-on on the E string at the 9th fret and right after he does a hammer-on on the B string 10th fret. Then the next few bars he moves to the 7th fret and 8th frets on the E & B strings respectively. This also positions the hand in a better spot to mute the harmonics.
