I don't understand bending on tabs i.e. what they are saying to do exactly. [br][br]Here are some examples. Here are screen captures from a video on youtube. [br][br]The first capture the tab has G string with 7b9, his fingers don't touch fret 9, but instead are pushing up G string on fret 5,6,7....Why? [br][br]The second capture...the tab reads 5B 7G and 5B 9G. No string is pushed up on the 5th fret or the 9th fret, the strings are pushed up on frets 6 and 7. Why? [br][br]I don't understand this.
