Gilles C. Gilles C. Professional Forumite! Registered: 09/04/10 Posts: 409 Loc: Dunstable, UK	Following english_bob's suggestion, I am starting a new thread for this. I hope this is the right place; I don't want to exclude acoustic guitarists! Well, here's my rather basic backing track. I'm happy for anybody to send me their contributions (mp3 please) at gilles[at]gillescoudert[dot]com Right-click here and save the file. I changed the drum sounds, added a 1-bar count in and a cymbal at the start of the 16 bars. For continuity purposes, the track loops round then fades out. BPM=85. Chord sequence: Em Em Am Am Em Em Am Am Bm Bm C D Em Am/Bm Em Em Edited by Gilles C.

english_bob english_bob Unregistered	^ That's what you always say $;\)$ You could always cross-post this in the acoustic guitar or bass forums, but it's not like Harmony Central here, where each forum has a very different "population"- most people here seem to visit all the forums as and when, so electric guitars should be fine. I was a little worried that 16 bars might be too short, but given that the last forum jam ran to nearly ten minutes, I think it's probably alright. Besides, there's a lot to be said for learning to say everything you want to say in a solo in a short space of time. By Van Halen standards, 16 bars is ages!

In other words, when you hear the 2nd cymbal, your time is up!!! $;\)$ _________________________ Fender Telecaster Standard (MIM) Vintage V100HB (Les Paul style) £48 Squier SA-105 acoustic Behringer X V-Amp Marshall Valvestate 80V

Couldn't find the pedal steel, ukulele and bouzouki sections though... _________________________ Fender Telecaster Standard (MIM) Vintage V100HB (Les Paul style) £48 Squier SA-105 acoustic Behringer X V-Amp Marshall Valvestate 80V

You can hear it here. I will add contributions as they arrive. Please send them to gilles[at]gillescoudert[dot]com.

Gilles C. Gilles C. Professional Forumite! Registered: 09/04/10 Posts: 409 Loc: Dunstable, UK	Just received a second contribution (The Tiggs). I'll work on it tomorrow. Now, come on guys, who's next? I'd like to hear some acoustic guitar and bass lines too! _________________________ Fender Telecaster Standard (MIM) Vintage V100HB (Les Paul style) £48 Squier SA-105 acoustic Behringer X V-Amp Marshall Valvestate 80V

Gilles C. Gilles C. Professional Forumite! Registered: 09/04/10 Posts: 409 Loc: Dunstable, UK	Thanks, Stickyfiddle, I look forward to hearing it. I have now edited the 4 existing contributions (in order: OldSwanner, me, TheTiggs & BobGnarly). You can hear the result and the individual performances here. I must come up with a better mix, as many of the subtleties of The Tiggs' performance are drowned in the current one. Keep'em coming!
