The Art of Expression: String Bending & Vibrato Masterclass is a complete guide to the two most powerful techniques for expressive guitar playing. String bending and vibrato are what transform scales and exercises into emotional, vocal-like statements — giving your guitar the ability to cry, sing, and speak with feeling. In this 23-video, 3-hour masterclass, you’ll develop total control of bending and vibrato while learning how to create a personal voice and identity in your lead guitar playing.
You’ll get an in-depth breakdown of bending technique, including half-step, whole-step, and microtonal bends, upward and downward bends, unison and multi-string bends, pre-bends, muting strategies, and practical tips for accuracy, strength, and comfort. You’ll also learn expressive vibrato techniques that shape your tone and phrasing. After mastering the mechanics, you’ll apply everything through 10 essential blues lead riffs that build control, phrasing, and feel while expanding your improvisational vocabulary and helping you wring the most emotion out of every note.
More than just technique instruction, this series shows you how to turn these skills into musical expression and personal style. Each riff lesson includes detailed breakdowns, plus downloadable PDF tabs and Guitar Pro files for deeper practice and looping. By the end of this masterclass, you’ll have the confidence, control, and expressive tools to move beyond mechanical playing and make your guitar truly sing.
