Bends: Two Note Bends on the Same Note

I know that the title sounds clumsy, but frankly I can't think of any other way to phrase it, and using terms like 'double-stops' sounds too technical.



The idea here is to play a note on the B string, and bend another note on the G string such that both strings hit the same note:
B-5-------
G-7b9-----

The effect is a stronger sounding note, as demonstrated by the intro to Tell the World above. This method is also used in Planetshaker's Redeemer, do have a look too.

To do this with the E and B strings, play the following:
E-5-----
B-8b10--

Lastly, you can use this for soloing, as demonstrated at the end of the video.
