Bending is just fine, accurate and balanced pitch, but what reduces the final impression is the transition between the two bends. You must try to get this transition a little more flowing and relaxed ! A simple solo line with a bend at the end - there's nothing more beautiful !

Once again I have to say that if you could put the backing track a bit higher we could analyse better your timing and playing in general. By the way I think that you are on the right track with this one. Keep on the good job! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Most of them were perfect and you did very good! It would be much easier if you will turn backing track up, but as far as I heard your timing was pretty good! Good job!!!!
