OK here NUMBER TWO record a bit different .

I recognize that i have to get more on exercising playing in time - timing - an old issue of mine

Hi mate, great to hear a new take from you. The main problem on this one is timing. The second half of this solo needs to be adjustment so the best would be to work on blocks, and try to play the licks tight with the backing. Another suggestion would be to simplify the trickier parts. There are some licks that have more notes (and faster) that are the ones that have more important timing issues.

I also think that the previous tone had a warmer EQ that fits better with the backing so I would get back to it. The only thing that it was lacking was some sustain, so maybe the same tone with a bit more drive.

Hey everyone, just wondering if I still have the wrong idea with this take?

(changed to a better take)

Wou!! This is a very cool take man! You could really improve your previous work. I think that all the licks are played very well, you tone is warm and enjoyable, with the right amount of sustain for those licks.

If you would keep it like this it would be great. Just to add some extra feedback that comes to mind:

- The first half is mind blowing. Every new lick makes the solo grow and makes the solo evolve naturally and keeps my attention and enjoyment.

- The second half of the solo is ok, but as you repeat some ideas, and rhythms, the overal excitement decreases a bit. Maybe some more agressive bends, double stop licks, a new epic melody, or something like that could make the job here.

- This can be just a matter of taste, but I'm not totally happy with the note repeated at 00:18. It doesn't sound bad, but I would make some kind of change to avoid the repetition. Maybe a chromatic movement that releases to A)¡?


Ok, once again, your solo is killer! Congratulations.

here some rough sunday morning ideas.
really rough, need to clean and make everything sound tight but there's plenty of time before the deadline

Hi Gill! Thanks for your take for this one! I think that it's a good first step and that with some work it can be converted into a nice solo. I like the composition until 00:14, it rocker, groovy and has a good sense of melody and phrasing. I also like what happens when the chorus starts until 00:25. The other sections need some more creative ideas and variations, some longer notes, double string bends, faster phrases, or other ideas that can add something different here.

Besides the composing dimension which is not bad, I would make some emphasis on improving your tone, feeling and technique. (Also, take care of your guitar tuning). I feel that you need a warmer tone for this one, work on EQ, try to add bass and mids, or see what happens if you lower treble. Once you are more convinced with what you are playing, take care of how you play it. Be careful with your bending pitches, and try to give your phrasing more vibrato, and dynamics.

Please keep on work these tips and suggestions and share your progress here, it will be a very good training and we will monitor and help all we can.
