Paul Bothner Music is once again sponsoring this month's competition, and they are offering 2 sets of RotoSound strings for the winners of each category.
Paul Bothner also have recording facilities at most of their stores should you require assistance in recording your entry. Contact your closest store to book or for more info.
The challenge will be broken into 3 Categories.
Category 1 - Beginner
Category 2 - Intermediate
Category 3 - Advanced
If you are unsure as to what category you fall in, please message me or Alan and I'll help you decide. But in general:
BEGINNERS: Relatively new to guitars (+- 2 years), not much recording experience. If you don't know what a plug-in is, you are most certainly a Beginner
INTERMEDIATE: Been playing guitar for a few years. You have possibly been in a band, or you could play quite easily with other musicians. You know something about recording, you probably have some free VST/Plugins on your computer, and use a free DAW.
ADVANCED: You should know if you are here. You have been playing for a good while. You know your instrument well, and you are comfortable playing in a range of styles. You could even session. You know recording quite well. Having entered this competition and others many times before. You understand what it takes to get a good mix.
*Of course these are rough guidelines. Some players progress through these 'ranks' much faster than others. Use your discretion.
You are also encouraged to write a little blurb/description of your entry i.e. what gear you used, what was the inspiration behind the track, how long it took you etc. You get the idea
The Theme
Alien Invasion
Something that would fit into a SciFi movie as the theme. Guitar as the main instrument.
