For applying a vibrato to a bended note, I release the bend to a desired amount and then bend back up again; again, speed and amount governing the overall effect. Bended note, very interesting. Actually, that is yet another "new" vibrato style, that way you go lower than the original note which gives totally different flavor. Let's stick to some not so wide vibratos for a sec, maybe semi tone bends in vibrato. Imagine we're in a key of C and we play note E, semi tone up is F and vibrato doing semitone up would work just fine. But what if we play note C? Semitone up is C#, not so great in a key of C. Prebend works great in that situation, you prebend semitone (from B to C) and doing vibrato from C down to B, back to C etc etc. Try that playing any ordinary lick or melody, try with whole tone vibrato and prebends as well, really cool and refreshing. -------------------- Youtube

When doing Vibrato, be sure to relax all your arm and let the wrist do its job. Don't force it, it must be a natural movement

When doing vibrato it's all about not forcing things. Just have to practice and play it, and don't worry, the technique will come in time, and they way you do it will become your own personal style.
In order to really nail the technique down you can cover all kinds of movements. Every fret, every string, every finger, downwards, upwards, whole step, half step, whole+half step, in tempo.. all this should be rehearsed. After that you can polish it up through playing no need to practice it any more. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

just shake it wild man..
Overall I think the wrist is the main part.. And it definitely comes with practice as your left hand becomes more stronger and vibrato more effective as well. I have been practicing lessons for long and I feel its finally coming to me. Check Marcus Lavendell for vibrato stuff.. he is just awesome! |
