Soooo...where to from here teach?
After a quick re-read of the thread this morning - I didn't do Part II, for the same reason as Squonk, felt intimidated by the quality of input from others (not your comments, those made me rofl...again!) - shall I give that a bash or would you like to start with a clean slate?
Partial excerpt of Post #57 on Page 3 of this thread
Structure: tempo 130, 4/4, Key of D
2 bars of the 2nd chorus
8 bars of the bridge (D - D/C# - D/B - D/A)
8 bars solo (F#5-G5-F#5-G5-A5)x2
2 bars final chorus
Ok, so here we have part 2. This is an 8 bar example. I gave the last 2 bars of the chorus leading into 8 bar bridge, 8 bar solo and 2 bars of the final chorus.
Somewhat off topic, as you are using Guitar Rig, any chance of sharing a preset or two? I've put a little time into playing with it - but I feel my attempts are still rather ham-handed, especially for the rock tones. I have a bad habit of spinal tapping everything to 11. :?
