Hey Guys,

Just saw http://www.davidwallimann.com/blog/melodic-solo-contest/ out there and thought it might be better to share.



Every other guitar competitions seems to be shred based and I can't shred or at least not in that level to be qualified for the competition. Still long way to go. But if you are like me, who loves melody and only can compose slow solos, here is a great chance to participate. The cool thing is its not a full 4 mins song more or less like collaborations we have.

Hope to see your compositions and good luck if you are submitting one. I will definitely try one.

Cheers!

cool contest,

the real challenge is making a melody for that track...its so open, and leads no where, that it is hard to find a start and finish!

That's a nice contest, suitable for soloing beginners. I'll take part!

Yeah, now that I've listened to the track with a guitar in my hand...I can't figure out how to do it. Help, anyone!

Awesome track, not sure how I missed this one before. It has plenty of setup for nice phrases, this should be excellent practice for anyone that's working on their phrasing.
