A simple question: I know that vibrato consists of many mini-bends put together in a way that they mix with the root note smoothly, producing a soft sound. But if I do those mini-bends downwards, should I do them upwards, too? Or the other way around, if I do the mini-bends upwards, should I do them downwards, too? This would result in a bigger movement, that's for sure, but I'm not sure if it would improve the vibrato sound. How should I do it? -Krisu You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content! Don't miss today's free blues, jazz & country licks.

Just have to practice and play it, and don't worry, the technique will come in time, and they way you do it will become your own personal style. In order to really nail the technique down you can cover all kinds of movements. Every fret, every string, every finger, downwards, upwards, whole step, half step, whole+half step, in tempo.. all this should be rehearsed. After that you can polish it up through playing no need to practice it any more. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
