Alright, it must be past my bedtime or something because to my knowledge it's working fine. My first GT solo attempt. It still needs a little work, and I might redo some parts, but overall its good and hope ya like it. Weslaba- Gt solo July

I dunno, it says my account needs to clear or something dumb like that. Well, this can all be figured out if you would so kindly click the link and listen to my July solo, as it is so appropriately titled.

z0s0_jp: Some very cool playing man. Some great runs. I liked the tone but it was a little low in spots.
Weslaba: It's working fine. Interesting intro very unexpected but it worked. Some very cool riffs and great tone.
Seems we are all, so far, on a similar track. Will be interesting to see if anyone goes a totally different direction with this.

Yeah, I found some triads that fit in with the progression and it seemed to flow well. The track seemed setup somewhat like "All Along The Watchtower" in a sense that the intro started strong then dropped off considerably in intensity. This led me to believe that a little chordage followed by a smooth flowing line would compliment it well. :rolleyes: I also was trying to stay away from the pentatonics as much as possible. I could have just as easily could have ripped away at the blues licks on this thing, but it's always interesting to work on new stuff. Quite a few of the licks in it were a direct result of that.

Ha yeah if you listen to Lady Writer by Dire Straits, you'll notice the main progression is pretty much exactly what I did for the BT. Feel free to steal some Knopfler licks from it, I know I will be! Actually I think I prefer the term 'paraphrasing' rather than stealing ;)

Playing sounds good, but the guitar track is far too loud. You need to mix it differenty so that you can hear the backing track better. As I said though, the solo itself was good, the mixing... not so much. :rolleyes:

*Edit*
That could possibly be my shortest post ever. It must have been challenging that character limit. :rolleyes:

seazer: Some nice riffs in there. Kind of chopped up but it has all kinds of potential.
equator: I like the acoustic sound on this. I thought it was well played too.

Thanks Nick.
I listened to your take the other day and thought you did a great job as usual.
I promise to give a more detailed feedback as soon as I have the time.
I am gonna listen to all the entries and come back with some comments.
Cheers

Feedback time my friends. :)
Bar Chord Nick: I enjoyed listening to your take, nice tone, good choice of notes, the timing was perfect. I also liked the double stops licks. Oh yeah, good mix too.
z0s0: Nice take, timing was good, I liked the blues licks towards the end (1:45) and the very last note of your solo added an interesting tension to the track. I did notice at least six times when you were playing off key though.
Weslaba: Good vibrato and phrasing, timing was superb, good soloing, man.
Seazer: I liked some phrases of your take, a few other were chopped, and there was a humming noise throughout the whole track that threw me, plus your guitar was a bit too loud. That being said, I think you did a good job.
