    Use any type of slight string bend. Not even a quarter tone. Try to use more vibrato and don't be shy of playing naturally, it doesn't have to be perfectly on the time. Don't worry about playing few milliseconds behind. Add some feel to it - don't focus on having constant dynamics all the time. Try to improvise over things. It will help you a lot even though the improvisation will not be on a Syn's level.
