Red Dwarf Theme Tune Guitar Lesson - Fully Explained

Is that a fender strat?

[axemanand]

@ItsTurningGreen002 No. I put it together with bit from ebay. Most of the parts are fender though apart from the neck. I got that from axesrus.com. Plays nice though.

nice one, found it easy to follow your tutorial... fingers are sore.. * * * * *

I struggle to put vibrato on a bent string and have no tremolo bar, I'm using a telecaster, any tips?

[axemanand]

@SpeciesofNecessity It does hurt! Putting vibrato on bent notes take a fair bit of practice, couple of things to help;

Bend the note with your ring finger but use your second finger together with it and keep your thumb over the top of the neck.

String guage is important, I use Ernie Ball Hybrid which are standard but with lighter guage strings on the top 3 for easier bending.

Bend it up to the correct pitch then bring it down a quarter note and take it back up, keep doing that then speed up

Nice vid, do you have any tabs? Are you in standard tuning? your guitar is out of shot @ some points and i can't tell.

[axemanand]

@TheGormkid No tabs sorry. It's standard tuning. I explain each note I play if you listen closely. Thanks
