Vibrato with the sliding technique

[Nick]

I came across a couple players who use vibrato by sliding from one fret to the next quickly. I was wondering if this technique is used in other genres other than classical guitar perhaps. What are the main differences between that technique and the regual technique we see most players doing ?

are there any other techniques that are used, and how does violonists' tenchique differs from guitar players' technique as far as vibrato goes ?

The difference is that you can above and below the pitch on violin, or any fretless instrument.
The slide vibrato on guitar is a lot more subtle. However you can also use it to bend a note down in pitch.

Would that not a be a trill?

Bending down. I didnt know that you could bend DOWN in pitch?

He may be asking about what Lynch does, that insane wide sounding vibrato that is in fact him sliding up and down a whole step from the root note.

I was thinking the same thing. There are a few guys who do this but I ALWAYS think of Lynch when I hear it!
