finger touch the lower part of neck while you have the,
thumb curled over the top of the neck.
later i will try to answer the wrong way and right way,
to do your vibrato or the BB-KING trill thing.
Its kinda hard to explain with words but i/ll try to put it into words so you don/t learn it the wrong way because
theres alot of advanced guitarests out there that i have met that have been playing for years and still don/t do,
it right.they do alot of shakeing thier left hand but,
thier still not right.
Ok guys i checked out your lessons for the bb-king style,
at guitarworld.Did find in Talking blues figure 3 they put a 0 in, tab where it should have been an 8 in the first 3
notes. first 3 notes->8 11 8 i guess were all human.
1.Make sure when you bend the notes with your third finger,
you use the second finger to support the bend.
2.Now the almighty Trill make sure you use the fleshy part,
of your index finger and not tip of your finger.
Now your index finger will be in a curled looking postion.
When you ececute the trill your thumb should be free of,
neck and kinda of moving in a left to right motion plus,
moving with your left hand fingers.
3.What your index finger will look like when you look ,
at it is its trying to clean a small thumb tac type spot off of,your finger board in the middle of two frets.
4.Make sure you listen to your trill plus thier trill,
untill they sound the same plus take your time go slow.
I can/nt stress this enough use your EARS.
BELOW is a classic bb-king lick useing your second finger,
to help your third finger make the bend .After bending,
up release the bend quickly then execute the TRILL.
You also can use the index finger along with second finger,
to support the bend.
