Hey, your amazing and have inspired me of how clean you play and on what level of skill. I wanted to know what gear you use to get your tone and what type and gauge strings you use, cause your vibrato is amazing. I heard Ernie Ball Slinky's are good for bends are wide agressive vibrato.

I practice vibrato a lot but feel like there is a lot of tension going on when I do some vibrato, etc

Also any exercises to practice wide vibrato? Like you do.

Thank you for your kind words.

My home equipment:

Line6 Toneport UX1 - I only use it as an external soundcard
Revalver MK III
ESP Horizon Fr II

I use Ernie Ball .10 strings

I use to practice vibrato by playing along with some of my favorite records and trying to copy the exact vibrato of the particular guitarist, and changing it a bit to fit my taste and incorporate it to my technique. I still experiment with vibratos.

If you use vide vibratos, you will feel tension and that is completely natural. The more you do it, the more you'll get used to it. Try not to overdo it to avoid injury.

Cheers
