Some really high quality ones one here, there are some videos of Guthrie Govan playing over some of their tracks on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUZK9dasP8s There are links to some of the others on that one, I think. (On a side note, Guthrie is a complete and total genius, if you've never heard any of his stuff, have a look around, he's seriously worth it.) |

The more I read these forums the more great stuff I find
I've been practicing blues with the backing tracks of my G-dec Jr amp, and was getting tired of practising over the same tracks all the time, so these sites will be of great help to get some extra blues backing tracks. Thanks

This website is pretty good. The defaults are nice. If you email him he'll send you a user name and PWD, he's got some good stuff on there. |

Sorry to change the subect but....That is one sweet guitar! I've been looking around for a hollow body and hadn't seen this one before. After reading the reviews I think I found it! Great price too! just what I've been looking for. How you like yours? |

This one seems to be good so far. Only drums and base from what I've played with.

Man, Thanks for the add! I've always liked Gillmour and said this was'nt my style, but I'm starting to dig this. Lookout for an upload from me using the slow blues backing!
