I used the Vamp2 on the Ultimate Vamp setting, and for guitar a Samick AV4 and a Jimi Hendrix wah.
 
Really nice, Spudman! :R You had a groove going there, for sure, and the wah just sweetened it up w/o going too "over the edge"... icing on the cake, if you will. Good job, TASTY licks, Spuds, keep em' coming.
 
Sweet tone Spud and nice playing too. And the Samick doesn't even make your gear signature list!
 
That's kind of funny, maybe ironic is a better choice of words. I really dug your take on it and my thought was... that was really cool... I gotta be sure and try to play something different or Spuds will think I'm just trying to copy his playing. :D That's when I decided "no wah, no matter wha.." lol ..knew I had to forego the wah pedal, but loved it on your take...anyway, I'm rambling again.

I hope somebody else picks up on this one, I'd like to hear some other fretters interpretations... especially NO! NO! I'm NOT gonna say it, every time I do I jinx it and he doesn't post a clip.
C'mon, guys, (or..gals?), add to this BT, you'll feel better, honest.:DR
 
Fantastic! Both versions was great! *applause* (Hey DVM, when are you going to make a applause smilie for us?)
 
Awesome, just awesome. It's amazing how two guitarists can give a different feel to the same backing track.

Music is nothing more than the sonic expression of emotion, and y'all both nailed it!:D
 
Thanks for all the kudos. I wasn't looking for them. I was just happy to have something other than 1-4-5 to play to for a change.

If you want to try it it is posted on the backing track forum in it's blank form.

I believe that is the intention for the 2 different forums under Home Recording. One is for the blank backing tracks so that anyone can have them in their pure form and then Member clips is where you post your version. That way folks can just go to the backing track forum and shop for something they want to play on instead of having to filter through other forums.

Absolutely! A fine job, and a very good backing to jam too as well, Spudman!
You are correct about the split forums also, Spuds. Raw tracks to peruse under BT's, and Member's clips for our takes and interpretations, and any other clips members wish to post, amps, guitars, pedals, etc. Thank you.:D
 
Wow! I wondered where you'd been lurkin', Justa. Now I know!
Bravo!:D :R :DR
You don't need no screamin' nothing! That was cool, laid back, and fit the mood. I think your take would make the ladies...swoon...is that still a word?:p
 
thanks you two.... you always seem to inspire me with these backings.. leading to more play time for me..and more learning...:)
 
I listened to all of your posts with this backing track, which is fantastic sounding by the way. You all captured great tone and chops and I was very impressed listening to you all. So I decided I would try my hand at this as well. Thanks for inspiring me to play.

I used my new Ibanez RG1570 through my microcube into my Zoom MRS-8. I am still not used to the fast neck on the Ibanez...feel like my fingers are skating on ice :) I'm used to having to fight my strats. I love it though. Anyway, you guys are definitely motivating so I hope you find this enjoyable to listen to.

Nice clip Pete! Congrats to the Ibanez, sounds like you are having a lot of fun with it.
 
These recordings are such a pleasure to listen to, a great learning tool and definitely inspirational. I doubt I would have ever considered trying to play something like this if it weren't for everyone's excellent takes on this theme.
Each one was sweet, and different, and when I listened to the bare BT, I heard something diff as well. So here is my attempt to get what is in my head out. I even played with the whammy bar - first time for that too.

HFOB, lovely tone you captured here. I like how you have this laid back style of jamming. You leave ample space in your phrasing which lets the solo breathe.

It amazes me how all these people listen to the same backing track yet in their heads they hear something entirely different from anyone else and that's what gets recorded. :R
 
Long time no Swede, so here is my take on this fine backing track. I only had a little time to sit down and record today so this is my first take (sorry to tone2thebone for the excuse thing :D ). I hope you like it!

Hog, lovely take on this track. I loved the whammy bar work! :)

This is too cool, like everyone looking at the same cloud and seeing something different. Can someone let me know what key this BT is in? I'm just beginning to play with BTs, and am a beginner in general.
