sabre Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 Vibrato is quickly moving the string up and down a bit, if you get what i mean.Slide down - Slide your fretting finger from a higher fret (I do from two or three up) to the fret marked.Slide down - same as slide up, but from a lower note.Bend - Bending the string up or down, thus producing a higher note. The number in brackets is the fret at which if you played with no bend, the note would sound the same as the bent string.Bend and release - self explanatoryHammer on - play a note and put your finger on a fret above the note you are playing, it will produce a new note.Pull off - Play a fretted string and take the finger off leaving an open string or a string fretted at a lower fretHammer ons and pull offs allow for quick playing.Not good explanations, want better ones, look them up or buy a beginner guitar book.
