klaasvakie Sorry man, I wasn't trying to be harsh, but I think we agree
Ahhh, I do agree with your sentiment! I don't take any comments personally - learnt that putting one's creations out there is a essential part of one's development. I mean to point out that, while critical listening is -err, umm- critical...? We can balance that out with objectivity?
We all ran into the same issue for the same reason - The studly one managed to keep us guessing throughout his track, which I loved!
klaasvakie I think of the three entries yours was probably the most difficult to play, those fingerstyle things are always much tougher than they sound
Yeah, thanks - I'm not much of fingerstyle guy on guitar. The poor brain strained remembering "Keep fingers arched, so strings ring out", "dig your nails in to get tone", "Move between E, A & D strings for bass line", "Careful grabbing that E/G chord on the 8th fret - it's a (&*%" ?
klaasvakie I find these competitions pretty much require a "couchcoustic", i.e. a beater that you can fiddle with while watching TV or when you have 5 minutes waiting for something/someone.
Absolutely! My R300 nylon beater was used for recording and on the couch. I'm really fond of it. Tonally it's a bit of a dog, but...damn is it fun to play!
