Task 13 : https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Phrase-Book-Pre-Bends/
Our bending journey continues !! The focus this time is pre bends, where you bend a string before sounding the note with your pick. There are some regular bends in here as well. Considering how well you did in the last Task, I've given you this confident that you'll nail it !  Deadline next Friday 27th April or I remove your knee caps. Don't feel pressured now and have a nice day. |

Hey Ben,
I hope this take will be enough to keep my knee caps.  I've been struggling a lot with timing here, especially the two triplets zones and some other parts too. One other thing : I've made thousands of takes at 70 bpm (maybe not that much, but a lot  ) and there is always something that won't be good. I don't understand.Here is the best I could do before the deadline. Waiting for your comments about bendings and timing. Bonne nuit. http://soundcloud.com/grindguer/phrase-book-pre-bends-lesson/s-2iYWm -------------------- �Million-to-one chances crop up nine times out of ten.�

Yes, your knee caps are safe this week so you can enjoy your croissants in peace This is really good, there's only a couple of slightly flat bends right at the end but the rest are pretty well pitched. The bend at 0:23 was good but then went slightly higher afterwards !  The triplet pull off thing, I wouldn't worry about as it was only the bending we're really working on so I would say this was a great success ! |

Here is my attempt at hurting your ears Sensei Ben. I know I need to practice this slower so I can get the vibrato on notes sounding. I havn't sorted out slowing down the backing tracks properly yet. So I was playing at full speed but not really getting the results. I'm feeling I'm making some progress in the bending department but still needs lots of work.
