Anyone else have the problem that I have? The song Wild thing starts wtih a bend from the 7th fret and bending the G string up to an E note. Starting with the E note and relaxing it, is the bend. Here is the problem. I have a Keith Urban Electric Guitar with Dadarrio 10 47 strings on it and an Acoustic Yamaha FGX 800 C with also 10 47 strings that are phoshor bronze. I can easily bend G to an E and relax it on my KU Electric but its a strain to bend the acoustic to an E unless I move up a half step to the 8th fret and bend from there. Anything wrong with it, as long as it works?

That's a big bend for sure!

That's fine as long as it works for you! Have fun with it.
