So this is my take, played on my friends guitar (I will post the real take as soon as I get my guitar back). I composed it just by improvising. Check especially the last take (6:20 I guess), since its generally without mistake - I just messed up the totally last, easiest slided note
 Any comments on feeling, posture, note choice and techniques appreciated  Needless to say, I would really like to win that competition  EDIT: Yes I know the first sweeped arpeggio should be a bit longer The pause is awkward there

QUOTE (skennington @ May 15 2009, 04:04 PM)  Pretty cool Jakub! I would like to have heard your guitar a bit better though and without the damper, I think the notes would have more clarity. Just my opinion of course, good luck in the competition! I will. I am just not used on his shorter neck and longer frets so I mess up much more on his guitar (its el cheapo ashton for 200$ with amp..) I agree the damper kills the sustain and ringing a bit tho!

By the way, what do you use to sync the audio and video? Cos I wanted to record the sound with pod and then add the sound, but in WMM it was impossible to make match

QUOTE (skennington @ May 15 2009, 05:10 PM) In WMM, get the backing and lead tracks as close as possible, then decide which track you want to move and click it to highlight. At the top of the page, click "clip", in the drop down, you will see "nudge left or right". You may have to do this several times but you can sync the tracks this way. Ah thanks. because when moving it by dragging, it always jumps by half second and thats too big interval:) -------------------- my youtube account with riffs and ideas: https://www.youtube.com/user/Phoenygzus

(I always do:)) Because it says in the rules that the feeling and sound is what matters the most in this competition:) Thats why I didnt just shred the solo through and through

I meant generaly the melody, you probably played slower to be more melodic and it does help to get some kind of a melody going but I would rather sing something over backing and try to catch few lines and then adapt those to your playing, our voices are ultimate industry for uber melodic lines.

Ohh.. now thats an advice from guitar god:) Will do, thanks
And yes, my idea was to make it melodic, yet interesting and technically challnging (thus those sweeps and tapping in the end). I just wanted to show them I've got it all - even tho I dont

Yes I know... Maybe you are right.. but its just my inner feeling that kickass solo needs to have some shredding part.. do you think I should make it all just melodical? Your opinion has big weight for me so please be honest
If you think its bad, say it, I just want to show them the best out of me:)
