Ok i'll put a few together and see if i can record it. Hopefully i'll be able to do that at some point this week. I'll upload the tab as well when it's done.
As for explaining how i try to write stuff, well first of all its really about deciding what kind of mood i want. From there i usually try and hear stuff in my head (which fails 99% of the time). Then i just play whatever, maybe stuff similar to what i already know. I might start with power chords and from there expand into other stuff. At this stage i'm not thinking about scales or keys or anything just literally playing random stuff.
When i start to find something, then i start to think about scales and keys so that i can lead off of it or onto it. Also i forgot to mention tuning, depending on the tuning gets me into a different way of thinking of riffs. Drums and Bass don't come into writing at all it's all guitar to begin with until i then have something i like. But of course sooner or later it gets thrown away as i don't ever see it as good enough.
I'm not really sure how else i can explain maybe if there's something you want to know ask me? I'd like to be able to hear riffs in my head and play them but i don't have the imagination i don't think. Well sometimes i do, but only when i'm not holding the guitar
