Hey everyone..

Well I finally got the backing track finished to an "acceptable" level. It's far some studio quality but I am happy enough with it. I have run numerous tests of different style lead guitar solos over it and it lends itself well to a wide variety of styles.

It goes:
D - D/F# - G - A
D - D/F# - G - A
D - D/F# - G - A
D - D/F# - G - A
Bm - A - G - G

Not sure why I decided on this structure.. it's a little unusual but you get used to it. The beat is a 4/4 Shuffle at 120bpm. Just in case the above doesn't make it clear enough, the track is in the key of D Major.

You can download it directly from:
GT Solo Assignment - March 2008.mp3 - 7.63MB

I was going to put it on SoundClick but I wasn't sure if they down-sample the downloadable mp3's or not, so I put it on zshare.net instead. The bitrate is 320kbps, the sample rate is 48kHz, it's 3:19 long.. I did pan the audio to left and right but I don't see the point to be honest.. just thought I'd mention that I did do this in case anyone wants it..
