[quote author=X-rated Bob link=action=profile;u=411 date=1280329135] My entry is http://www.box.net/shared/rko1oczgf4 Recorded on my Morgan OM. DADGAD. Capo at 3rd fret. [/quote]
[quote author=Squonk link=action=profile;u=298 date=1280662606] http://www.box.net/shared/3umzocm4db I have never seen so many trees. Inspired by the huge man made forest in Johannesburg "Fingerpicker" Squonk - Takamine through slightly effected Zoom Pedal , DADGAD tuning in the centre channel "Slowhand" Squonk - Peavey T-60 neck pickup through effected Zoom Pedal in standard tuning in left channel "Plectrum" Squonk - Pevey T-60 bridge pickup through effected Zoom Pedal in standard tuning in right channel (Unfortunately had to use a plectrum to get a bit of speed, all other Squonks used their FINGERS!)

[quote author=MikeM link=action=profile;u=501 date=1280685650] http://www.box.net/shared/0z2rvsqsnh First thing I realise entering this, I need to start mixing things up quite a bit. However, Epi LP with new pups in through guitar rig, 2 channels, tried to get a bit of a jazzy warm feel with the lead tone using the fingers etc. [/quote]
[quote author=Warren link=action=profile;u=2258 date=1280741215] My entry for the week: Using my newly acquired Strat! :) Loving it! Tried something different this week - plugged my amp directly into the sound card (has a line-out jack) instead of using amp-modeling software. Very pleased with the resulting tone! Rhythm track played using bridge/middle position and the "Dumble Overdrive" setting on the amp. Lead licks played using neck/middle (fave position so far) and the "Twin Reverb" setting on the amp. Guess I might not need to splurge on Amplitube or Guitar Rig just yet...and the bonus is that the tone is the same as I'll get playing live / during practice as well. :) A-Warren_Fingerstyle.mp3 http://www.box.net/shared/a5x2aznsjx [/quote]
[quote author=guitarboy2828 link=action=profile;u=1378 date=1280743387] http://www.box.net/shared/xiahip597h I really wanted to get into entering these competitions, but as always time runs out and so this is one guitar, one mic, 3rd take, saved, entered :) Put me in the Beginner category please.

[quote author=ezietsman link=action=profile;u=1907 date=1280764920] Here is my entry. Think I'll just enter into A from now on. Rhythm and lead, all fingerpicked. LP trough HT5, Hardwire Overdrive for lead, DD7 for delay. Haven't touched my guitar in 2 weeks so doing a fingerpicked entry felt a bit weird. http://www.box.net/shared/uq1f0brvc1 [/quote]
[quote author=evolucian link=action=profile;u=1152 date=1280767594] The haunting of SiLevi - part 1 - demo - Evo - cat A This is a demo of something that will be larger... but everything was done wif fingers.. I chose a mellower line of the lead on this one... my previous attempt went a bit too fast and too busy... hope its to the standards of the forum. http://www.box.net/shared/0j16qp66t4 [/quote]
