Hey guys,
I finally got to the point where all my bends are the right pitch, but now I can't seem to get the other strings I'm bending past to stay quiet. I've tried left hand damping with my other fingers but then I didn't have enough strength to execute the bend. I also tried damping with the right hand but that was really awkward and killed the note I was trying to bend and sustain.
Does string gauge have anything to do with it? Action? Or do I just have bad technique? Either way has anyone else had this problem or know what I could do to fix it?
