Paul Gilbert reminds us to pay attention to vibrato – because it is part of the language of the instrument

Paul Gilbert wrote the book on how we approach the electric guitar to deliver a sense of spectacle, pushing the envelope with Racer X and influencing a generation of shredders even before they heard the a click and whirr of his Makita drill.

But as a player and a guitar teacher, he has never forgotten the fundamentals, and in a recent interview with Positive Grid’s YouTube channel to promote his new limited edition Spark MINI practice amp, he spoke of how essential vibrato and string bending is to giving your playing personality.

Once you’ve learned the rudiments of lead guitar, fretboard navigational essentials such as hammer-ons, pull-offs and slides, you’ve got to give it some feel.
