I like Forrest Lee's DVD too however it's not a traditional "licks" video with tab. It's more a compilation of ideas that will require you to figure out the exact notes. Probably recommended for intermediate to advanced country players. Think of it like a clinic or sitting down for a session with a badass guitar playing friend and going through a ton and a half of cool bending ideas.

Off the top of my head:
Will Ray Forrest Lee Jr. Doug Seven Dan Schafer Paul McEwen Albert Lee (just parts of 2 videos are about b-bender) I know I have a few more, can't think of them right now. |

I just watched the Forest Lee Jr video for the first time last night. I'm in the same boat as you at the moment. I'm a decent Tele player but definitely a BEGINNER Bender. In my opinion the Will Ray DVD is much more useful. Hands down. I thought the Forest Lee Jr. one had excellent tips and advice especially regarding who's who in the history of the B-Bender but as far as getting down to business...for me...the Will Ray is by far more useful.

Think of it as a single-string vibrato. It lets you bend the b string (and / or the g string) without changing the other strings. They are operated by palm levers or by a lever that attaches to the strap buttons. It makes a pedal steel kind of sound.

Google + "B bender" = answer
Google images + "B bender" = visual answer
