rate my guitar playing
I finally got something recorded and hosted. This is a 30 second section of a 5-10 minute solo I made up. It combines the style of van halen, metallica, lynyrd skynyrd and my own style. My guitar is tuned down two full steps. Equipment used is: Hamer Standard guitar, line 6 flextone amp with boss me-30 pedal. I had to choose parts that I thought fit together since I had to choose only certain parts to play in my 30 second time limit on my digital camera.

It sounds much better in person. My digital camera wasn't designed for this kind of thing. Anyway, it's too bad I couldn't record the whole solo, which can get over 10 minutes if I get carried away. Maybe I'll have time to record more later.

It should still be up, but not for long. Soon, I'll have to send it to anyone who wants it through AIM or something. By the way, it was an .avi file that works in WMP 9 (maybe some other players too), if you had trouble with it. It should download automatically when you click the link.

Those long solos are the best part of the song in my opinion.

me too, a band that can mix solos in with the song really good like Children of Bodom never bore me. But there are sum bands that make solos seems forced... that i dont really like as much.

I watched your video. I think that would be good to show off to people who have no idea about music. It was fairly fast and made you look skilled. There was, however, no melody at all. You only played in the E minor pentatonic scale and it sounded boring as shit. No offence, but that wasn't music. Im sure you didn't really mean it to be either in which case don't worry, just show people who think playing guitar is cool and they will treat you like a God.

You should at least record some backup guiatr or something. I too am not as big a fan of solos as I am cool riffs. (Ex: I like Petrucci's riffs way better than his solos, especially the bites)

it's hard to make an solo sound like "music" without any backing
it's also not realy necesery to use different scales without backing (but that would be nice ![Smilie](images/smilies/smile.gif) )
it takes lots and lots of patience and practice to play like that... but just playing like that isn't enough... you need to have creativity and the feeling too.. i agree in so much to the other guys.... but you all have to agree, those are some leet skillz ( ![Stick Out Tongue](images/smilies/tongue.gif) )

Remember this isn't the only thing I can play. I just liked the sound of it and people were impressed with it, so I recorded it. It doesn't by any means represent my entire playing style. I can play rhythm as well as solos. I could only record one thing that could last 30 seconds, so I picked this riff. I would love to get a full rhythm and solo double tracked song that lasts at least a few minutes, but I don't think I would be able to get it hosted.

I love the tone you got, but your playing, umm... very clean playing, but no melody, and nothing overly complex, I do like the tapping though. 5/10

That was good, you tap pretty well, but I dislike it when bands repeat a sequence over and over in a solo. It can get annoying after a while. Put some more variety in pace and sequences and it would be much better. But you got skill. ![drunk](images/smilies/drunk.gif)

i agree with wreath. i like complexed solos like tvangeste and children of bodom. i liked the ending and the begining, but the middle got annoying, but i was still pretty good.

You need to work on switching back to pick from finger tapping. Tone sounded pretty good.
