    let's see if I can attach this video here:
    Definetly Sounds Like a distortion / unwanted noise Thing to me. You probably accidently Grab the b String as Well when bending.
    That's why I think that practicing with distortion is also benefitial because you really have to Focus on your muting :)

    One question on how to bend a string correctly.

    Do you bend the string quickly to get the right pitch right away and hold it, or do you bend the string slowly? Or does it depend on the expression you want?
    There are No Rules to bending! :) Whatever Sounds best to you. Just listen to a7x Solos. Tons of different bends. Slow, fast, aggressive, exaggerated, smooth. Syn has it all :D
