@vockla Why is this easy for me with only one finger?

[MrRammstein7]

Just so i know. Is bending with acoustic completly useless?

5) once you get it you can do it with 2 fingers (middle finger and index finger) or index finger alone in different strings. 6) the vibration comes from the wrist, not from the fingers. Forearm must be very relaxed. An exercise you can do everywhere to get used to this is to close your fist and rotate it clockwise and counter-clockwise as it was a big screwdriver (believe me, this helps!). Vibrato is harder in acoustic guitars because strings have more thickness

This technique is not as easy as it looks. I suffered thru years until I found the way. I'll give you some recommendations: 1) start doing it with 3 fingers (ring finger in the note, index and middle fingers in the same string will give you more strength). 2) practice it in G-string or B-string between frets 12 and 15 (this area of the fingerboard is easier and softer). 3) start slowly. 4) don't try it while bending or doing chords. Those two are advanced ones, leave them for later.
