Man, had the bender about a month, I am having a great time with it. I am doing just chord stuff right now but I added it to about five songs per set, some that don't have steel licks in them. I guess it is easy to over use a new toy!

Helleman! yer b bender disc was wayyyyyy helpful. I am a fellow slide guy, and am thinkin bout the stealth slides. I have tried others that were kinda the same thing buit could never make them work, too light, not enough mass. I may have been trying to do to much, I see in the vids that you only work one string at a time. So I may have a go at it again

Hey Sarge, glad you're having fun out there. Keep experimenting on the songs you already know, bringing the bender in from time to time just to see what happens.

The Stealth Slide is made to do 1 or 2 strings at a time. I like to integrate the slide notes with fretted notes from the other fingers. Just like the bender, it takes experimenting.

Keep having fun.

Welcome to the club of B & G benders.
Now that I own one, I can't imagine never having a B bender in my collection of guitars ( especially a Telecaster!)
