Alright, Rax, Alpha, and whoever is intersted, I got a decent backing track done. My ftp at my school isn't working yet it doesnt seem (or maybe I just don't know how to work it), in either case, I'll have to send you the file over msn messenger.

Looking forward to this.

the word "Jamming" used as a guitar verb makes me want to put down the instrument forever.

 

[WHOAguitarninja]

Then substitute another word in for it when you read it.

 

[karasu]

put down your guitar then sucka.

 

[Lemurnator]

I can't really jam... since I'm a nervious perfectionest. But I can make clips of myself playing guiter and post them here if someone is willing to host them.

Excellent

I've changed my MSN account to raxel at junsenoue dot com (anti spam measure, sorry!), I should be on for most of the day tomorrow.

This would be really fun to participate in if I had a decent mic and amp. My guitar skills have improved greatly and I can usually come up with somehting good on the spot. Though I'm not technically good (shredding) like morbidaza. (my idol)

 

[Raxel]

Here's what I came up with. It's mostly improv so I do kinda lose momentum in parts

My solo (once again, big thanks to Raxel for hosting)

and the backing track, for anyone that wants to give it a shot (or go ahead and write your own backing track, that's cool too)

And raxel asked about the little flurry of notes at 48 seconds, sothat was...

e-12-14-15-14-12-14-12-10-12-8---------8-10-12-15-8-12-19-
b------------------------------10---10--------------------
g---------------------------------9-----------------------
d---------------------------------------------------------

e-8 12-/-17-14----------------14--22~--19-20-19~----------
b--------------15----------15-----------------------------
g-----------------14----14--------------------------------
d--------------------16-----------------------------------

Everything before the background riff changes is improvised, and most everything after isn't.

Don't take this the wrong way, Morbid...but I've stopped downloading your clips. You make me cry.

 

[WHOAguitarninja]

If you want to be humbled, look no further than Jeff Loomis, the guitarist for nevermore.

http://jeffloomis.msanthrope.com/sounds/jeff-16.mp3

A solo he made to enter a contest long before he joined nevermore.

Beleive it or not....he was 16 when this was recorded.

I don't think I have to tell you whether he won or not.

 

[AlphaSnake]

I refuse to download that.

 

[Raxel]

Thanks for the tab morbidaza, impressive stuff as always. That clip you posted is pretty incredible, it reminds me of Jason Becker.

 

[Raxel]

I dunno if this has been posted before, but I came across someone playing Eruption on a violin. It's a pretty good attempt, considering the limitations of the instrument.

[WHOAguitarninja]

Hahaha, that's killer!

I'm working on a few more backing tracks too, for anyone that wants to have fun with em. I got my ftp account working finally, too, so I won't have to bug rax to host my stuff anymore =).

 

[WHOAguitarninja]

Two more backing tracks.

This is just a simple chunky riff at 170bpm. Not the most solo friendly tempo, but it's recorded, and i figured just maybe someone might find it fun.

This next is just an (somewhat annoying to play) arpegiated group of chords i came up with about an hour ago. It's relatively slow(120 bpm, although I reckon it feels slower), and done on the clean channel. Theres little mistakes everywhere but I didn't feel like messing with it any longer, so i just left it as is. Still sounds relatively okay.
