About this Video
Part of the techniques course, shows you how to perform behind the nut bends.Current Playlist: Techniques Course
Behind the nut bends involve bending the string not on the fretboard, but rather, behind the nut where the strings proceed to the tuning machines.
To play behind nut bends you put your fingers behind your fretboard/nut on one of your strings and just press it down. You can do this with either hand. Behind nut bends can be played with either hand, although the fretting hand is usually used.
This technique doesn't work with varying success on different types of guitars. Sometimes the tuning machines can get in the way. Make sure your strings are trimmed short and dull at the ends where they are wound on the tuning machines. I have stabbed myself more than once while performing a behind-nut bend.
