If you are studying how to play blues guitar, you will find no shortage of lessons teaching blues guitar licks. But blues licks often included bends, and not all bends are supposed to be played the same. In this blues guitar lesson, I will focus on bends that go up, but do not come back down. Releasing a string under tension will result in ringing, noisy strings - unless you know how to mute them. In this lesson I will show you how to mute these ringing strings after releasing a bent note.
