AROUND THE BENDS, PART 5
More bending techniques on the high E string
LET’S CONTINUE OUR examination of multiple string bending techniques on the high E string, using the E minor pentatonic scale (E, G, A, B, D) as our point of focus.
The first column in this series (see GW February 2021) had us beginning with bending techniques on the B string based on E minor pentatonic, with each subsequent lesson moving higher up the fretboard while broadening our scale study from the fivenote E minor pentatonic scale to the sevennote E Dorian mode (E, F# , G, A, B, C , D).
