Fantastic advice as usual! I learned some of this the hard way. Continuously drilling bends all-day is guaranteed to get you condition called "trigger-finger"......

Chad Peplinski

Such an overlooked skill. Guys just bending all Willy nilly is too common.

Steven Hatfield

Speaking of YingYang Malmjeans... you should do a review of his signature strat from Sweetwater. I've never been a big fan of the neo classical style, but that guitar seems like it's much better than just that style. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/StratYMVWT--fender-yngwie-malmsteen-stratocaster-vintage-white-with-maple-fingerboard

I really enjoy lessons devoted to bending and also vibrato which you have done also. Good stuff. Maybe take another run at some more Satch chops? Stuff Satch does?!?!

i said it in the video chat ..but thank you so much for the way you explained vibrato that is what i needed to hear for it to make sence in my messed up head. i new it was just bending the string back and forth but mine sounded bad until i watched this video

Robert Barnes

WOW! My bending sucks! I didn't realize how much I needed this!

Gregory Taylor

Oh….boy this is timely. THANK YOU for the lesson….

Excellent lesson Uncle Ben! If anyone is interested, Beck's "Because We've Ended as Lovers" is a great track for working on bends... really have to use your ears as many of the bends are not exactly 1/2, full, etc. Plus it's a beautiful track.
