Shame on me but I don't have any vibrato lessons on the site so far.
However,there are few ways of doing it and in most of them wrist is very active. The way I do it most of the time is that I bend the string up and down, that is not like typical bend when you have to listen to the note on the bend, it's just like swinging the string up and down, speed of these bends will determine speed of vibrato of course and larger bends will produce more curved vibrato. For soft vibrato you can go for smaller bends and you'll have it. Don't be confused by word "bend" here tho, those are really not typical bends but string reacts like they are, it swings up and down. Let me know if I missed something. -------------------- Youtube

I may add something Muris, sorry to bark in mate
I have developed the vibrato by bending consecutively every fret with every finger along with the metronome, and watching TV at the same time. I hope this method can help somehow (with or without TV) -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

Hey,good to hear things are going up way!
As for bend and vibrato,pressure needs to be constant and hard in order to keep note singing,it'll come with practicing as you said. As for upper string ringing,you should apply some direct right hand muting. Direct muting is very obvious thing since you touch the string with the pick, middle finger or with some other finger. You touch it and don't let it ring,it's simple as that. I do this a lot but I never thought of it, I realized what I'm doing after watching some of my videos. -------------------- Youtube

Muris, I notice on alot of your videos you use "finger vibrato" as well. Especially when you are doing a fast run and your thumb is behind the neck and not in a very good position to do wrist vibrato. I never thought about this before but I am gonna have to start using this technique. I always try to use my wrist but your hand isn't always posistioned to be able to do this. Monte Just like that Monte,you should do proper thing for proper occasion, there are NO rules,only different ways to get something, this time you have either wrist or finger fibrato. I'd like to add that vibrato is 100% strength, so there's no excuse! This is a true excersize workout, and "I can't shred" isn't an excuse either No excuse,yup. -------------------- Youtube

Motion could be done in few ways,
just look at the things in logical sense and you'll figure it out. Can you move low E upwards? No you can't, and that means that the only option is downwards, all good. What about A? Well, there is some space for pushing upwards but safe bet is to go downwards only, yeah. And what about D? D can be bended upwards without any problems, even up to tone and a half. There's no need for that wide vibrato on D string most of the time tho, just saying. So with D string you go both up and down. Same with G string. And when you do it from wrist you can actually do both up and down movement with ONE wrist move, that's pretty economical btw. Let me explain this for you. Let's say you play note D on G string, 7th fret and you start applying vibrato from neutral and you go up, that's one motion for your wrist. And now you're going back, crossing neutral spot and continuing down, all with one wrist move. Up only, down only, up and down, doesn't matter as long as it sounds good, try them all! -------------------- Youtube
