Slowing down songs is another great way to learn from records and your song collection. I use Song Surgeon, which works really well for this. Check it out.

Guitar Lesson Overview

Here's a great sounding bending lick I learned by listening to Jimi Hendrix. I am not sure if Jimi played it the same way I do it, but this is one of my favourite string bending licks I know.

On this clip, I use a clean sound, but you can bet it sounds fabulous with some fuzz or distortion, like Hendrix did! This is a hard lick to play, at least for me, so have patience as you practice this one.

I use Guitar Pro for most of my video lessons. It is a great product that will not only show you the notes in both TAB and standard notation, you will also HEAR them being played at the same you see them. Very helpful for learning! Click the link below to try the free demo.

HI ROBERT,
JUST A QUESTION. I WAS WONDERING ABOUT THE STRING GAUGES THAT YOU USE ON YOUR STRAT PLAYING FOR BLUES, SRV AND HENDRIX. COULD YOU SHARE THAT?
THANKS - LAWRENCE
