Hi friend! Cosmin illustrated it perfectly. It's not exactly going flat and sharp because it just happens when the vibrato are very wide and nervous (you won't want to make every bend sound like that). But it's truth that you move around the note and go a big higher and a bit lower the note when you do vibrato. As it happens with vibrato without bending. And yes, you're right about having to do more strength when you want to add vibrato to a bend.

Hey mate usually, when I think of visualizing this technique, I imagine that the string is in pitch on the note which you have reached with the bend and you have to vibrate around that point as if the string would be in its normal 'unbent state. You need to shift your focus on the new note, as that's where you are now. This is the basic approach, as there are a lot of possibilities, but first you need to become aware of this idea If you could post a vid with you executing a few of these bends in slow motion, I could help further for certain Cosmin will give it some more practice and get a video up for you tomorrow. I love listening to bends with vibrato and really into Zakk Wylde,s aggressive vibrato I could listen to this one all day Hi friend! Cosmin illustrated it perfectly. It's not exactly going flat and sharp because it just happens when the vibrato are very wide and nervous (you won't want to make every bend sound like that). But it's truth that you move around the note and go a big higher and a bit lower the note when you do vibrato. As it happens with vibrato without bending.

I know this video isn't about bending, but it has some very nice tips anyway:

I have being watching a few different videos and looking at different peoples techniques. On one of Guthrie Govan's videos. He says to make the bend a little sharp before starting the vibrato this way it won't sound flat. Then I was amazed to find out that B.B King doesn't use his thumb on the back of the neck when he does his vibrato.This seems very hard. My bends are really poor. I am working on them but they never seem to be consistent in reaching the correct pitch.Then my vibrato sounds terrible in this video.I think that its mostly due to not having the finger strength to be able to control everything I will get better faster by showing you all where I am at with it and get your advice I will need to give my fingers a rest now because they are becoming very ache Thanks for sharing mate.Its always good watching different peoples approach to things. As Cosmin and Darius said, everything looks good on your video. You are playing the bends with the right motion and adding vibrato correctly. You aren't still comfortable with both techniques because you need practice to train your year and gain more strength with your left hand. If it's possible practice bending over backing tracks to be sure that you are reaching the correct pitches. -------------------- My lessons
