Creating the perfect sounding bend isn’t as easy as throwing your fingers on the strings and going to work. So, what is bending on a guitar, and how do we do it?
In this lesson, we’re going to show you the best guitar bending exercise that will have your guitar singing in THREE simple steps:
2. Descending On The Bend: More muscle memory! Can you get to the right pitches without even hearing them?
3. Combine Ascending and Descending: Put it all together and listen as you can add another great lick to your arsenal.
Take your time with this one — it’s tons of fun, and you’ll be impressed with what you can achieve when adding bends to your guitar playing.
