hello David I sent you an audio on the lesson of tong blocking on the Gary's blues mp3 but I am not understood with the translator what you meant by the My only recommendation is to dip your 3 prints (the little carrot above the 3 pull notes) is that you could make me see this with the tablature by making a circle around it just so that I can see? Are you talking about the small triangle above the 3? do as u nbend and release it immediately ?? thanks David

Hello Renato. Yes, I am

Hello Renato. Yes, I am "talking about the small triangle above the 3" and yes, start the 3 bent (3') and release it quickly to the natural 3 draw. The dip (and a picture of what it looks like in notation) is taught in Bending Study 2.

You can keep studying where

You can keep studying where you are and post in this forum when you have questions and I can direct you where to go for an answer... just like we have done in this forum thread.

Another option, since English is not your native language, start from the beginning of the lessons so that you don't miss anything (like the Dip in this case).
