I am trying to learn Sweet Child O Mine from freelicks, and it has a Pre-Bend in it. Can someone please explain what exactly is a pre- bend and how is it played?

First bend, without sound, then while bent pick it and release (i.e return to an unbent string).

What the sound is you'll hear from the song of course but in words - Just like a normal bend but it goes from a high note to a lower.

So basically you are bending the string to the desired spot first, waiting, then picking the note?
