Pros Know These 5 Bend Tricks (And You Probably Don't)

[@step-by-step-guitar]

Hope it's helpful! If you can't get your thumb over the top on the bend (due to your hand size or the speed you need to play something). Don't worry, just put your thumb lower down and the other tips should still work! Are there any bend issues you're having? Let me know in the comments 😀

Oh my God I've playing guitar for over 10 years and always struggled with bending. Practicing with a tuner is such a simple yet absolutely genius idea!! Thank you so much, you're a saviour!!

Great explanation. Do you have a video on how to fix the vanishing trill?

[@orinaftali4675]

thank you this was helpful! But I cant figure out how to bend with a vibrato, any suggestions?

Hey Ori. First get the vend and then try and move the string up and down a little bit, but make sure you're moving it an equal distance.

I got a bad habit of pulling the strings down instead of pushing them up for bends... which means I never bend on high E. I get clear bends to correct notes, but I need to spend time breaking that habit anyways....

Cool, that's interesting.
