p p pThis is a little lick I G in Jerry Donahue style. First pick G on the D-string bend up a whole step with your 3rd finger (you have to bend the string downwards toward the floor) and catch the G-string release the D-string bend and at the same time bend up the G-string a whole step, keep both strings ringi n, pick the notes om the B-string with third finger, snappy and fast.

Let ring through outI use pick for the D-string and my second and third finger for G and B strings. (Tele style picki n).
Heres a nice ending lick in the style off Jerry Donahue. This is another lick in which you bend and catch, in this case the G-string up a whole step catch the B-string bend it up a half step, at the same time release the G-string. Then put yuor 1st finger (left hand) on 7th fret A-string pick it and then bend behind nut with right hand bringing it up to the root (G)- Let all notes ring as long as possible and use pick for D-string and fingers for the others(some time I use the pick on the other strings to, whatever works is good). Finger all notes on the 5th fret with your first finger, use half bare, and I use the 3rd finger for everything on the 7th fret but you may also use the pinky for the last note on the e-string.

rhThe glissando version sound simular to the bent one, a player like James Burton would probably use the slide lick. Use right hand hammer for the A-string. Try to let notes bleed into eadh other. Listen to James and Jerry. Since there are people intrested in stringbenders, hipshot, parsons white, here s a Nashville styled pedal steel lick for B-bender guitar.

E------------------------------------------------------------------------G string with pick e and B w fingers, the last three notes on the e string are playd "snappy". Moving the lick up two frets gives you an D lick. Try playi'n the lick in diffrent positions. For exampel play in G, F, and C swiftly after each other gives a nice pedal steel E9 tuning sound.
