Using the wrist is a must for a nice natural, wide, good controlled vibrato. It's all about technique there, and therefore practice. Approach bending like every other practice you do, and vibrato will come out very nice.

Go for the wrist as often as possible,
with fingers only you cannot get that steady vibrato. -------------------- Youtube

I see what you mean now, with a little messing around i noticed that especially on the lower frets (around 5th) i have to stretch my arm out away from my body so that my wrist and fingers are straight, is this normal? That way it seems to move. However i also notice that the more fingers you put on the harder it is to do this, with just one fingers its ok but i can't do it very fast at all, any excersises i could try? Just like that,your arm has to go a bit out specially at lower frets to do good vibrato, no worries there. On the other hand I found it much easier with more fingers on the string,feels like powerful stand. -------------------- Youtube

Sorry Muris what i meant was when i have more fingers on it is harder to twist my wrist in that direction. Also should i be twisting my wrist round as if shaking it left or right or should my wrist be going outwards away from me. So when i'm doing wide bends and vibratos should i be pushing up with my fingers as well? Up and down vibrato is actually like few small bends so focus to rotate your wrist like when you're doing bends. Maybe it's frustrating for you atm but it'll come natural after a while. -------------------- Youtube

Before when i did bends i wouldn't use my wrist i just pushed my fingers up, it seemed to work fine but if using my wrist will benefit me then i'll try and get out of the habit. Always with wrist, my 2 cents -------------------- Youtube

Yeah i'll try using just wrist from now on, going to be difficult taking out the old habits though. I'll need to start slowly but does your wrist sort of naturally get strongers over time? Using my wrist doesn't allow me to do very wide or fast vibrato which i like to play It surely takes some time,just like everything else, just don't give up and work hard. -------------------- Youtube

Muris is right, just practice a lot of bends and vibrato will come in hand in hand with that.
Also while practicing be sure to make your fingers steady and not curve the fingers. Keep them solid, and get as much support from other fingers behind it as you can. Also when practicing, first see where you are vibrating too, wetter it is half step or whole step, and then VERY SLOWLY go up-down, up-down, while keeping the fingers steady. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
