Everly Brothers - Cuckoo Bird: Guitar Solo Lesson (Clarence White/B-Bender)

[@thebenderbunker]

You have a great feel for Clarence's style which is not an easy one to pick up - well done! Kudos for putting together such a detailed and complete lesson. I'm a subscriber and can't wait to see what you put out next. Keep it Bent!

@@chrislarcombemusic8445 Cool, two best bender guys on KZbin! I am subbed to both of you. Agreed, Clarence's style kind of baffles me, so these videos are invaluable. I think what throw's me off is how he changes positions so easily with the bender engaged. When I listen and try to figure is out or even play, his moves don't even occur to me.

CptWhiteJeans hey man, thanks so much! Yeah I know what you mean, when I first got the B-Bender I was baffled a little by the idea of moving into a different shape and keeping the Bender engaged. As much as it’s clique, it’s all just time spent with the thing, either noodling or focused practice. For me it has just been a lot of noodling, aiming to get the Bender to feel like as much of a natural extension of my body as the guitar does, so they’re on the same level. It’s still got a fair bit of catching up to do!! Thanks again man.

Great playing Chris. I had a live recording of freight train my guitar teacher did where he did loads of bending and hammering on etc. No singing just fantastic guitar. I lost the tape, and I’ve scoured KZbin for as good a version but not found one. I like your bending though.

Thank you! Not credit to me tho. This is all Clarence!

Truth is Chris, I’ve given up trying to learn and I only watch these videos to listen to pure unadulterated great guitar playing live. So the longer the playing bits are the better.
