www.guitarbt.com -> Downloads -> Jam Tracks

There are a lot of cool tracks. Try this for instance: http://www.guitarbt.com/index.php?page=dl_info&cat=Jam%20Tracks&file=Jam%20Track%20-%20PRACTICE%20TRX%2002&ext=mp3

Cool ok i got it now, is there anyway you can find out the key to these though?

Posted by: Caelumamittendum Jul 14 2008, 03:06 PM

Sure, by using your ears

Some of the tracks on the site has the key written in them. Some don't though. My ears aren't the best either. But that exact track I linked to there is in the key of F#m.

Well then my ears are totally shot because i was playing in Eb and i thought that i had the key lol

I'm pretty sure it's in F#m

I just made a search for a site I stumbled upon some time back, it may be what you are looking for:
