I talked with ya before about this. I dont get why they would sound like that unless you are doing something horribly wrong that isn't even close to an artificial harmonic.
If you would, please explain excactly what your doing and I can help you out.

Know what, I'll just clear this up right now. An artificial harmonic is sounded the same way a natural harmonic is, only on a stopped string, and usually one octave higher. This means, if I fret an A on the high E string (5th fret), I must lightly touch the string right over the fret at the next octave of A on that string, which is twelve frets up, so that would be at the 17th fret, with my right hand index finger, then I would pick the string with my thumb on my right hand. That is an artificial harmonic. I hope that helped you.
*Remember*
The distance away from the nut your fretting the note at with the left hand is the same distance from the 12 fret that you must lightly touch the string over with your right hand. Thats a little memory trick you cant use.
