Bends are giving me a hard time for some time now and I failed a couple of lessons because of them so I decided to pick a really easy one (at least that is what the difficulty level says ) This is the original: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Bend-A...lide-Exercises/ The truth is that I've been obsessed with the bends and vibrato and I haven't payed good attention to the slides in this lesson but it was a very convenient lesson to do for these two techniques. So even if the slides are not so good (as I hear them) it would be very helpful for me if you could concentrate your feedback on the bending and vibrato parts My take: Gear: Ibanez S 470 DXQM Amplitube EMU 0404 USB Logitech quickcam C200 with another sound card for audio input. I connected the headphones output of the EMU to the line in of the other sound card. Cheers, You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

You've got the makings of a strong vibrato, so if you continue on that track then all is good ! I thought the slides were fine, myself One point to look out for in future is muting unwanted string noise but it's 9 from me. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Most of the bends are reaching the correct pitch now and with some more practice I think that they will sound more natural. Your vibrato is very good now. Well done man! Keep on the great job.
