    Absolutely phenomenal video, I play in a country/folk band and had been wanting to improve my steel style bending and this helped a lot! The volume swells really made it for me, no easy mode with a volume pedal, just pure perfection! Really really beautiful stuff! So I'm actually really struggling with those swells, I feel like my pinkie is too short, do you have any tips on how to do those more effectively?
