Play so hard that you break a string (this only works w/ floyds btw); take the broken string off the guitar, wrap around your hand a few times, & stick the end into an electrical socket.

Members Tweedledee Posted November 9, 2006 Members Share Posted November 9, 2006 All you need to do is fret a note then push the neck forward really hard. Give it a good shove and it will go flat. Do it hard enough and you can even break your guitar neck right off. It's fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members guitarNed Posted November 9, 2006 Members Share Posted November 9, 2006 Originally posted by phyrexia Sometimes guitarists will "pre-bend". That is, you bend up (or down, either way) to a note, strike it, and then "unbend" back to where the normal fretted note is. You understand? +1 This is the only way to make a bend "go flat." And, of course, that's not what's happening. But I suppose it can sometimes APPEAR to be happening, if the guitarist is very fast and fluid and you aren't watching very closely. short answer: (as many others have already said) forget it.

This is still making the guitar note string go SHARP SOME how i need the STRING to SLIPPPP then it will go Flat and lower the pitch u know what i mean by SLIPPING from the tuning keys or tremolo system so how it releases a slipp when u pull down on the string Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you bend, it'll go flat:thu: orHit the open G string, then bend the {censored} out of the D string. If you have weak springs on your trem, the G will flatten to an F.

Members geek_usa Posted November 9, 2006 Members Share Posted November 9, 2006 Originally posted by Hudman A bend is a bend. It doesn't matter which way you do it, you are still pulling the string tighter, thus making the note sharp. You make a note go flat by taking tension off the string. You can do it by turning your tuning knobs or by pressing down on the a tremolo bar. You may want to take some lessons. END OF THREAD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
