The Best Way to develop vibrato
Hey there! Learning vibrato can be super fun, and I'll show you how to do it step by step. 😊
- Start with a relaxed hand position
- Make sure your thumb isn't squeezing the neck
- Keep your wrist straight
- Practice the rocking motion
- Without your instrument first, pretend you're knocking on a door sideways
- The movement should come from your wrist, not your whole arm
- Try it on your instrument
- Start really slow - like one rock per second
- Use a metronome set to 60 BPM
- Practice on one note at a time
- Gradually speed up
- Only increase speed when you're comfortable
- Aim for about 6-8 movements per second eventually
