This is my first try, I tried a bit of tapping in the middle part...I used a flanger plus a delay effect with a bit of reverb.
It was really fun playing over this BT!

I really liked your take,

The tone goes really well with the backing, the flanger gives it a nice rocking touch,

The slow part and that bending goes along really well,

Tapped part is kind of out of context but what the heck, imo

I think in your head you have the same phrase start everytime, you wait one pulse and then start playing, it could be a good idea to vary this and for instance start playing over the first pulse of the bar, or even wait longer, but make it a little more varied,

thanks for taking part!

Hi Daniel, thanks for the feedback, glad you like my take!
I was just practicing tapping and kind of wanted to impelment it...
And you're right, I should bring some more variation into my soloing, I think I'll just have to practice a few more lessons and scales to get some more ideas.
I really liked this collab, can't wait for the next one!

Love that guitar NoSkill!! Awesome take!

Nice one dude!

I'm not coming anywhere near this good stuff. You guys are rockers. I'm a sorry beginner with zero improvisational skills. <if that's a word...

Hmm .. I was just drooling over that horizon all the time .. .. Great take !!


Here's my humble take. Didn't like some parts but wont be able to do anything better due to practice time constraints & creativeblock
2 takes in there, didnt video the 2nd take.

Man, really cool take! the video is great!

That long note in the quiet part struck a cord inside of me, no kidding, reminded me of Guns n Roses or something...

I think your overall composition makes a lot of sense, simple, fun, nice tone, relaxing...

It's a great expression of what you had inside at the time,

I guess that's all I'm saying,

Thank you for participating!


Nice Take! The video looks GREAT!

You did a good job defining the phrases in sections that are easy understandable.

I like the way you mixed it, the stereo effect on the guitar makes it sound very full.

I think there's a slight issue with the intonation. Maybe the guitar was out of tune just a bit. Or maybe it's a problem in the bendings, just make sure you are conscious of that.

The arpeggio part near the end feels a little forced in there. I guess the phrase they say about not using everything you know in one solo has to do with that. I mean, it's cool to use whatever you want, but listen to the overall music direction and follow it, sometimes using different techniques we might interrupt that nice flow in the music.

Thank you for participating Zen!

Thanks Daniel .. I've noted all your feedback and will endeavour to fix all those issues

Posted by: Daniel Realpe May 26 2010, 04:05 PM

no problem...

Posted by: thefireball May 27 2010, 04:20 AM

Here's my humble take. It took me a few takes until I settled on this one. Just having fun; I don't think it's anything particularly special. You guys out-rocked me by miles! I just felt the music, and this is what came out.

So my slightly improves take, not as good as the written takes I've seen here, e.g. by Zen and NoSkill

starts with some The Edge style harmonics (Vertigo, rings a bell? )

really nice take!

I liked it a lot!

I wish we could've put it in the final mix,

Really good use of the pentatonic scale, really expressive,

that tapping at the end is perfectly executed you've got a great technique,

thanks!
