    • @CNNBlackmailSupport
      @CNNBlackmailSupport Před rokem +18

      It actually isn't what Randy does, and it isn't the whammy bar either. I just checked some live footage and his pick hand never moves past the pickups when it isnt tapping at the start. It's around 2:20 seconds into the song if you want to see for yourself. Annoyingly, the best up-close version cuts to the bass until the bending trill part is finished. I'll see if I can link the video and give timestamps.
      Randy just had some crazy strong fingers.
      czcams.com/video/EISy_qeJ38c/video.html. 03:26 is a few seconds before the solo.
