Guitar Master Competition!

It's time for a new competition again, finally smile.gif
This time we're going to have some fun and you, the gmc members, will be able to win some fabulous prizes.

Enucleation had a good idea a while ago for a competition.
So I "stole" his idea tongue.gif

You should make your own recording, much like the Guitar Idol competition, and show us your skills.
Record your own song, with full backing and post it in the uploads thread.
Video is not necessary, but will certainly look better smile.gif
I choose not to have video as a criteria to join, as more members will be able to participate that way.

The recordings must be original compositions, NO covers!


Let's start with the best part of the competition, the prizes:


1st prize: VOX TONELAB ST (Multieffect)

2nd prize: BOSS DS-1

3rd prize: ELECTRO HARMONIX LPB-1

How about those prizes? biggrin.gif


In the 4 weeks the competition lasts you'll have to make/record a full song with backing.
Drums, Bass, Rhythm Guitar, Solo Guitar and other instruments if you feel the backing needs it smile.gif
No video necessary, but a cool touch if you choose to make one smile.gif
This competition will be decided by an open poll, so all GMC members can vote.
So the better the quality of the recording, playing and composition, the better are your chances!


Voting will consist of three choices:
  • Best song/composition (songwriting)
  • Best technique/playing
  • Best recording/mix

We will start a thread for people who want to enter - you should post your recordings there!
If some of you make videos as well, post these on youtube and embed the video in the upload thread!
If you don't have a Youtube account... ... ...create one wink.gif

Rules:

1. The recording MUST be an original composition!
2. All contestants must have a recording/video uploaded within the length of the competition.
3. Recordings should be as long as the song. If it's shorter it will sound unfinished tongue.gif
4. Final winners will be chosen by an open GMC poll.
5. All entries must be finished by July 27th, voting will be for one week after that date.
6. No Cash or alternative prizes will be offered!
7. In the event of a tie, a tiebreaker activity will be employed to break the deadlock.
