Bending Strings in Acoustic Blues

Acoustic guitar strings are generally thicker than electric guitar strings, so it's more difficult to bend on an acoustic. In this lesson Mike takes us through a string bending lick that works well on acoustic guitar.

Lesson Aims

• Make sure you use your first finger to support your second finger while bending
• Learn to play the example lick
• Try this lick both with finger picking and with a plectrum
