I pretty much got this idea from going into this brazilian website, http://guitarbattle.cifraclub.terra.com.br/ where guitarists like you and me upload their songs and compete with others and I thought "WOW if GMC had this it would be a great way to show our skills." I know we have our competitions and we get prizes, but this forum does not have to have prizes just recognition. We also have our uploads forum, but it seems kind of dry, don't you think? So, How do you win a battle? Members can vote for a limited amount of time, lets say for a week or two and the one with the most votes win. Then we can see the rankings of who has won the most battles in a month. It is pretty much a competition but I see this as a way to improve the ways we compose and record our music, (IT MUST BE YOUR ORIGINAL WORK) Well, obviously we are all learning here in this website and this pretty much gives us a push to improve and see if we can beat some of our GMC instructors So give some feedback, whether you like this idea or not.

Im not here to battle against or show off my skills to anyone other than myself. The recognition I'm after is learning. Besides. I suck. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I think guitar is the only thing I've ever been competitive about in my whole life, and I'm still not very competitive about it hahah. Other people are competitive about EVERYTHING.

Doesnt have to be hard to judge, just vote for whoever sounds better. The rules have to be there of course, like no copyrighted material and no offensive comments QUOTE (opeth.db @ Nov 12 2008, 02:20 PM) Cool idea but not my thing.

Maybe because GMC is much more into "collab style" than "battle style" Anyway, it could be nice. They have been doing this for some time. So, I can check their rules and see how we could adapt it.

This is only a suggestion I had because there is only like 2 websites that have this guitar battle, but one is Brazilian and the other doesnt look very productive, but if we had one here it can encourage others to join GMC, knowing the fact that so many people want to learn and be challenged to learn.

"Coolest riff using a I-IV-V progression" "Coolest tapping lick" "Coolest 80's metal style riff" Heck, throw in videos!!!! "Biggest Hair!" "Tightest pants!" Its all about fun. And throwing the gauntlet down with our friends can be lots of fun. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
