Guitar bends
The guitar bend is a technique commonly performed on electric guitars, where the performer pushes a string out of its normal alignment. Bending the string tightens it, which produces the characteristic pitch fluctuation.
Hiding/Showing accidentals on guitar pre-bends
You can hide/show accidentals on guitar pre-bends individually, for example, to save horizontal space in a layout that also shows the interval clearly on tablature.
