A little friendly solo contest?

Re: A little friendly solo contest?

I put two different ones on there.

Yes, back in 2012, we participated .
In 2015 we started discussing doing another one at your suggestion . It never went any further.

Got one whipped up after about 45mins of goofing. Tried to do bit theme parts, but occasional noodling slips in.

Bridge pickup 1st part, neck pickup 2nd part.

Good stuff LLL, and great tone. Loved some of the phrasing you had going on too.

Hey thanks! You're not too shabby yourself, Speedy Gonzales.

You've got a great warm tone with just a touch of delay that sits in the mix perfectly.

Re: A little friendly solo contest?

Okay, here's my humble contribution to the collective pot. First off -- GREAT backing track, I tried to outline the chords when I could and was able to sneak in a little modulation to G towards the end. Was really hoping to capitalize on that F chord, but couldn't find anything that I liked. I went for a classic, dual guitar approach as this backing track reminded me a LOT of The Scorpions. Secondly -- you guys really raised the bar! So many great ideas in all of these solos and I was struggling to put my own stamp on it. Anyway, enough excuses.

Outstanding!!! Melodic, interesting bursts and fine tone.

Thanks!

Re: A little friendly solo contest?

Fantastic. And another unique take on it for sure. I like how you ran with the Scorpions theme and did the dual guitar thing...making me wish I threw some harmonies in mine haha.

Re: A little friendly solo contest?

Thank you, sir! I’m glad I didn’t just cheat and use the Mimiq!

Re: A little friendly solo contest?

Cool stuff TO! You've raised the bar more with those harmonized lines... :smokin:

Re: A little friendly solo contest?

Ok fine...

We should. So a couple questions:

1. Start a new thread or just keep this going and updating the original post?
2. What genre should the next one be? Keep it rock so the majority can participate ?

Re: A little friendly solo contest?

I just discovered this thread yesterday! This is a fun idea. Great job everyone.

I vote for blues or rock for maximum participation.
