bend, then play the note you intended so it sounds like 2 of the same note?
I dunno, thats just something I always did. |

Qenzoz ! First of all, make sure your guitar is in tune and then before you bend, play the note that you're bending to to keep it in your mind. You can do it on the same string or an adjacent string. Using the same string means it doesn't matter if your guitar isn't 100% in tune.
-Let's say that you're playing D on the 7th fret, G string. You want to try bending a whole tone, so play the note of E on the 9th fret. Then try bending to it. -Keep repeating with any intervals that you want to practise. It's a good instant way of using trial and error and feel to hone your ability to reach the desired sound. After a while, you fingers will instinctively know how much pressure to exert to reach a whole tone, semitone etc.. This is a great lesson for bending because the techniques are just isolated, no other melodies to distract you: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/String-Bending/ This post has been edited by Ben Higgins: Sep 11 2012, 09:25 AM |
