Hey Marcus, on this subject - my Vibrato is ok, it mostly does the job, but one aspect I have trouble with is a bend up followed by a vibrato, specifically when bending the note up towards my head, not so much when I bend it down towards my feet. I think that particular sequence gives playing such an accomplished feel that I really want to master it but my efforts so far sound irregular and amateurish, much worse than my other vibrato types. Do you have any tips on this?

I'm a little confused you say you can do a vibrato alright but when you bend and then apply vibrato it sounds different, isn't that what a vibrato is? Isn't it bending up and then applying a vibrato? Sorry for the month later post Applying vibrato to a normal unbent note means bending up a little and returning to that unbent position, several times a second - that's not too hard. Vibrato on a bent note means bending up a tone for instance, then to apply the vibrato, you bend up a little further and return to the bent position - this is a lot harder as you can;t just slacken of entirely or the note will bend down to the unbent note, you have to bend up a little further then unbend down to the note you originally bent to which takes a lot of practicr and coordination. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile
