January ’09 Solo Assignment.

Hi guys, happy new year to you.
This month’s backing track is provided by GT's instructor Kevin Taylor.
My software detected the tempo of the backing track as 90 bpm. (not sure if that is accurate or not)

Fair use of the backing track: Please, make sure to give credit to the author in your description, comments and/or tags.

Download the MP3

Have fun.

WrigglerUk has gained some favorable attention
Wow - this is a full production job! Thanks to Kevin for giving us this to have fun with, it's taken a lot of work, cheers!

It's hard to play to, there are no tempo changes to build 'sections', just subtle changes in dynamics... my first attempt is done already, will re-visit it over the next few days. First dibs on the "atmospheric slide guitar in the background"

Oh yeah, and copyright taken on the title "Taylor Maid"
Edit: Just to get that title down!

WrigglerUk, Taylor Maid for You

Superhuman is making a name for themselvesSuperhuman is making a name for themselves
As per usual, I'll do what I can to get back into my studio. My two year old dauther got pneumonia over Christmas so I haven't been able to do much of anything. Hopefully I'll get to record something but if I don't it's purely because I can't get to my guitar. Thanks to Kevin for putting something up, I'm sure it is excellent (can't listen to it here at work)!

MAN! you nailed it! Great job...im thinking, should i listen to Fredi's track before i do mine...ah what the hell, his style is way different than mine anyway....Big mistake, now im going to have to wait a few days to get yours out of my head!

Like your tone on this too, different from your usual sound. I know your a strat guy, what did you do differently?
I know this is not a competition, but still..... a tough act to follow....good job man!

Equator... VERY NICE!!!!!
Only thing I might say is for my taste, the guitar may have been bumped up just a weeee bit more. But, again, that's just me.

Hey Rick...why not submit a solo? I listened to your sample track you posted....after only a couple months you are well on your way and this thread is a great way to build on your skills and get some good feedback. Re: your track...do those chords first then record that intro on top, add a drum loop and it would be kick ass!
