    I've been playing for 10+ years and to me, most of the things explained came naturally without me thinking about it, but what I like in this video is the focus on details that really do make a difference.
    I completely agree and support the mindset of this channel which is: to be a great guitarist
    one does not need have majestic shred or overperform with guitar. It just means: nailing every little detail and following the mood.

    Leslie West had great vibrato. Revisited his music again, because of his passing, been awhile, and was blown away all over again. Great tone, simple melodic lines and beautiful effective vibrato. Everybodys vibrato is different. Kind of a signature of your playing.

    IMHO, Mark Knopfler is a true master of vibrato. He's left handed but he plays like a right handed.

    • @stranger360th
      @stranger360th 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      so true. In one interview, he explained that he is left handed and that is why he got this strength in fretting hand to vibrate chords and little bars over three or four strings. But he playing is also so melodic and almost completely chord based which in my view is the key to melodic playing and improvisation. Alchemy live is for sure one of the best albums ever. I wish so desperately I could come close to his playing. But as recreational player and entrepreneur of 55 years, it will remain a dream...

    Great video GP! BB was indeed a master of vibrato. A good friend of mine knew him well & I was lucky to get to hang out with the King in his dressing room after a show. Nicest guy you ever want to meet. No ego & very down to earth. He was more interested in asking us questions & finding out about us. Definitely one of the highlights of my life! Happy New Year GP & looking forward to what you have in store for us in 2021! Be well & stay safe everyone.......... 👍👍🎸🎸🎸🎸👍👍

    I used to play my vibrato with my finger curled but I remember I used to see you (and the pros) do it with your finger straight so I tried to emulate that. It improved drastically due to better single notes. All this with a lot of practice ofc. So glad you brought it up in this videos because it’s good for beginners to get the technique right from the start, even though string muting usually comes later in the journey :)

    In a recent video of David Wallimann and Jennifer Batten, she pointed out that when she was in Jeff Beck's band, she learned from him about using the whammy bar to do vibrato that goes down in pitch and then returns to pitch - which is like what a harmonica player does. Most of the vibratos shown in this video go up in pitch and then return to pitch. The only way that I have figured out how to do vibrato that goes down in pitch without a whammy bar is to bend up to a note and then use vibrato that goes down and then back up. Using this approach, you could also go down in pitch below the note and then up in pitch above the note - similar to what can be done with a floating whammy setup.

    I think a good control or usage of vibrato comes with time, especially in improvising. The more you know your craft in order to let your guitar speak (or sing) the more nuanced your sound becomes. And vibrato is one expression of that :)

This particular video is fantastic but I am struggling with how to put a vibrato on top of a bent string note: your video wasn't quite clear on the crucial part. You say move the strings out of the way so you don't have more than one under your fingers doing the bend but how? I couldn't understand what was happening in the close up shots of your fingers. Would you mind clarifying the mechanism of moving strings out of the way please? thanks!
