? Entries Close: Sunday, 11th November, Midnight

?Rules: Create a entry, using at least one track of acoustic guitar. Any & all instruments welcome, but the focus is acoustic guitar and I'll be suggesting that people vote accordingly (E.g. Who really showcased an acoustic guitar in their track). Use your phone, or get multitracking. No time limits or track limits. We may even tolerate creative covers...? Go crazzzyyy!

Depending on how many entries we get - I may split voting into groups - I'm already thinking we'll have one for cellphone/lofi entries and one for more studio orientated entries.

⁉How To Enter: Record your entry, sign up or log in to SoundCloud, post it there. Then grab the SoundCloud link and reply here with the link pasted in your reply.

?Prizes: The fame and glory of winning a GuitarTalk challlenge...oh and you get to pick the next challenge theme ?

Anyone can enter this competition. You just need a guitar and a phone. But any other recording equipment is fine too.

A friendly reminder - in case you missed it - Spring has almost done sprunging - Dust off that neglected acoustic guitar and get playing!

V8 And to add a little spice, @wern101 has been calling out @domhatch and @Stoffeltoo to show off their rather tasty acoustic guitars...Of course this means @wern101 might be entering himself...?

? Yes indeed. We as a forum have been waiting far too long for @Stoffeltoo to do his NGD thread and @domhatch always promises to enter a compo.... What do you say gents?

OH and yes, I intend on entering. ?

This looks cool. I'll try to make some time to enter this one. One question, how do we feel about vocals in these challenges?

Yeti Not a problem as far as I can tell. Anything goes!

Yeti One question, how do we feel about vocals in these challenges?

Anything Goes! ...............But make sure there is an acoustic with those vocals.

Good luck everybody!

@Yeti, let me echo @wern101 & @studmissile - Anything Goes!

Keen to see what y'all come up with and if we've tempted a few old hands back for visit.

Even if it's just to use the 'deadline' to polish up a long lost idea, re-visit a electric piece as a unplugged version or even work on a standard/cover with your own spin.

V8 cool. :-)
Nice excuse to try my hand at a little composition.

5 days later

I think I’ve posted the wrong link and uploaded the wrong track on soundcloud.
You can listen to it anyway if you like. Its still something I composed and recorded.

domhatch I are in. With a little luck and a looooooooot of practice time...

Hooray! Now I suppose I have to make sure I actually submit an entry as well... or look like a big bananahead. ?

So how about it @Stoffeltoo ? You in?

      MULTIFANFIX Guitars, bud. We wanna see your guitars. Also amps, pedals maybe even cables. MAYBE even patch cables. We're dorks like that ?

      (Go ahead and post those in the intro thread you started. To keep this thread from derailing.)

        MULTIFANFIX Decent track...but where's the acoustic guitar(s)? Is this your entry for this competition - if so, I'll just say upfront, you are way off the criteria.

        We have a clips for review section : https://community.guitartalk.co.za/t/clips-for-review, where you can post whatever you like for us to listen to and give feedback on.

        The challenge/competition threads are specifically for tracks you plan on entering for that challenge.

        NorioDS (Go ahead and post those in the intro thread you started. To keep this thread from derailing.)

        As @NorioDS mentioned @MULTIFANFIX, please keep your posts in the threads relevant - for now I've moved your last post to your intro thread here : https://community.guitartalk.co.za/d/26897-a-loud-hello-note-to-all

          If I could remove the track I would.
          This track isn’t my entry, SORRY guys.
          My entry will come soon, you wait and see.
