Hipshot B Bender Demo....Fender Telecaster

Just installed a Hipshot B/G bender on my Tele, so I figured I'd post a demo. New strings were sort of giving me tuning probs. Once the strings are stretched, it stays in tune perfectly.

Also, I haven't had much time to practice with the Bender, so my playing's pretty shaky. My apologies.

Equipment used:

1971 Fender Twin Reverb

MIM Fender Telecaster with 3 brass saddle bridge and AVRI '52 pickups.

but tune the guitar!

It was when I started playing. It was an annoying problem, but once I lubricated all the key points and adjusted everything, it stayed in tune.

@depthwave If you really have to ask how to bend an open ringing string, then I won't even dignify you with a response, because you obviously don't play guitar.

Well... I dunno about you, but do you have 3 hands? how do you do a chiming bend, or bend an open string normally? you can't... b bender lets you... it also makes regular bending easier, so you are open to do other things with it...

[okamasphere]

I completely understand the idea behind a string bender. But how does it really help your playing? Can you do more complex techniques since you don't have to bend the string? How does not bending the string manually improve your playing? Cant anyone do exactly what a string bender does

I am not really much of a country fan but it sounds like playing this kind of music would be good for any guitar player of any kind. It seems as if this could be applied to most applications and end up working out in the long run.

Thanks

I'm a big fan of metal but as of lately I've been really interested in these b bender stuff and country licks. I can't really stand all this country that's on the radio. It's too whiny for me but I really want to learn some of this stuff. Where I live it's either blues jazz or metal for teachers. Where do you recommend that I go to learn more? Thanks. :D

Would jerks come on this page to talk crap to this guy? He's doing all guitarists a huge,free favor posting a demo of this newfangled device.and he plays really well.so keep it to yourself with the insults.

Lot a rude people out there, you're playing a style of guitar that most metal heads, or no talent rock and roll guitarists could play. I love the sound of b-benders, and think you got it going on man, keep on pickin!

@nolan83 No white trash stereotypes in this video. These Low income "FOLK" mostly live in trailer parks, spend their tax returns on things like "Geetars" instead of clothes for their kids. People this specimen tends to be mouthy, getting in fights having his ass kicked frequently. Generally these type of people are uneducated bigots and have little concern for personal hygiene. Have grossly obese girlfriends, three or more non-working yard cars. To see these people at their best visit a Walmart.
