I Need A Solo - Stat!

[Gazhole]

So i'm recording some song i thought was cool, and when i came to the part where the guitar solo should be i suddenly realised that i can't solo for shit.

Hmm.

And then i thought to myself, Cheryl, who better than the fine folks at IM?

Could be fun, so if you want to be a part of fame and fortune* record a solo to go with this piece of music**, upload to Media Fire or some other file sharing thingy, and post the link.

INeedASolo-Stat!.mp3

The best one will end up in the song .

When you save your file, mute the backing music, i just want the solo so i can mix it with the rest of the song. WAV format is preferred but MP3 is fine. The bit you should record over is the part with just bass + drums, btw.

Hell, doesnt even have to be guitar, a rockin' mouth organ solo or violin or something would be just as cool. And rest assured youll have full credit and royalties when the song goes platinum***.

Go for it.

That's funny cause I can solo till my fingers split but I have never been able to stick with a rhythm nor strum chords for long.....when I get home I'll see if I can re-rig my system into my 'puter.

Together we make a decent guitarist, haha. Sounds good though, i look forward to it

As i recall the chords are A, G, A, G, E, A, E, A, a bar for each. I think.

One word.....pentatonic....make's life a lot easier when you're not in the mood for those other, 'uppity' modes.

I was thinking the same thing. That tune kinda has the Joe Satriani vibe to it.

See, i've heard the words "mode" and "pentatonic" before, buts the spelling is as far as my understanding goes
