No extra points for early completion. :P
Lol.
My youtube video is 25% finished uploading. I'll post it as soon as it's finished. Go ahead and post yours.

Heh, I don't have a video, I just did audio recording. We're waiting for the other contestants... apparently no one else has made contact with LS besides you and me.
Let's give ourselves a pat on the back.
Hehe. :cooler:
Ok, well mine is done, so here it is.

I think I could have gotten it down perfect, if I did another take or two, but I was using old batteries and I knew they would die in a matter of moments, so I had to just upload what I had.
I planned and practiced about 90% of it, and then everything from 3:00 and on is improvised.
Hey, pretty good man. That was probably a smart thing to do what with the planning out a routine. I just winged the whole thing, some parts are pretty good, some aren't. Here's mine.
Tell me what you think. Not bad for me having not played a funk riff in my lifetime as well as making it all up on the spot!
Not bad, man. I like the second half the best. :goodjob2: A little rough here and there, but definitely good stuff, for being a complete improv. :content:
Oh yeah, definately some rough patches. I only had two or three takes and this one was the best, so I did a bit of overdubbing (just at the beginning). Couple more and I would've been gold.
Wasn't yesterday the deadline? :P
Where are you people? Lol.
Hey guys,
Sorry about all the messing up of this, i have been very busy unfortunately and not had much time for anything.
Mine is recorded and i am going to upload it when i get a few spare minutes, i'll likely do it as soon as i wake tomorrow.
Also, it looks like its just Me, O and CB in this since ranma pulled out and i've heard nothing from Carou or b12.
I'll post it up tomorrow and we'll see how things go from there, once again, really sorry about this, its difficult to predict how much time i have free now, sorry. Lets hope the voting will begin tomorrow.
Good job you two, mine sucks, i did an improv and stuck around the same area, it gets very repetitive :( But i'll get it uploaded and we'll begin the proper voting tomorrow if that is cool with you guys. I'll create a thread and put all the submissions in as well as a poll.
Sorry for a mess up on my end.
yall should post your music on this thread and let me be the judge. =P
or am i just missing something? all i see is one from O
oh ya i just missed it... lol
I haven't had time to record, with school and all. I had a badass riff going on too, i wish you guys could here it. Late or not, i'm going to record some stuff tomorrow to show you guys.
Heres mine, did an solo improv, it took two takes but this take was better than the first since i made tons of mistakes in the first.

Go to the Guitar Wars Submission thread for the votes.
This is cool ---Talent LS That was awesome!!!!!
(for the record LS, I thank you for the invite. I would be like one of those people on American Idol that you just sit there is awe and cannot figure out for the life of you what they are there for!! :)
Rock ON guys!!
Yeah, LS, had you explored the other portion of the neck yours would've been perfect. Awesome bends and everything, though. Really good.
Listened through 'em all... tough to make a call here. It was really fun seeing the vids - I'm going to have to come up with a webcam somehow.
Sorry I didn't get in... just couldn't pull it off this time. I will some time in the future.
So - when IS the next one and what's the subject/genre/style? Are we allowed to use something other than pentatonic scales? I love blues/funk, but that's really not my strong suit.
Yeah, I'm already anxious to see what the next style is gonna be. :cooler:
Talk about frustrating, guys. I would SO love to be in on this, but with no webcam, no recording facilities, and dial-up only, I can't even watch the vids!
Damn! And my G&L Comanche is sitting there giving me a really dirty look..
Oh well..
Yeah, let's get this next genre rolling!
This should all probablly be combined into one big thread.
So...it's Tuesday.
...What do we do now:?:
Arg. I just get busier every day, i barely even swing by the forums anymore.
It's okay though. I'm going to do this round fo sho! Just send out a genre and i'm there.
I have this strange high-pitched buzzing sound when i try to record something with my webcam, though. That's gotta be fixed :-\
Okay guys, sorry for this late response on this, i have been way to busy for my liking recently and unfortunately its just going to get worse for me. I have the next task, i'm not PMing this to you, i am expecting all those who want to participate to PM me to let me know that yo are so that when the thread is made for the results i can include all the names.
--------------------------------------------
Task
Area - Rhythm Guitar
This week the task is to play a complex rhythm guitar part. You can play the chords to your favourite song, or even come up with a complex chord structure, however it must be a complex rhythm guitar part. By complex i am meaning something that will be a challenge for you to learn, something that requires time and effort to master, something that you know has a complicated rhythm. Also, when i submit them i would like a written description of how the part you played was complex. This recording must be more than a minute long, it can be just a minute but preferably more than a minute.
Style - For this task you can play in any style you wish.
Deadline - End of Friday
So, in summary, for the end of Friday i would like;
- A submitted video or audio recording which includes you playing a complex rhythm guitar part, also include a description as to why the rhythm guitar part is complex.
For all those interested, please PM me so i know who to add to the new voting thread when its made.
Post your submissions in this thread along with the description i requested. Once the deadline is over i will compile all the submissions and post them on new voting thread.
---------------------------------
Okay, i hope all is clear, so if you are able to participate and get something up for Friday please PM me to let me know, i am very busy this week and will not have much time to check over in the thread and read through peoples comments saying they might be able. Its a simple yes or no, if you cannot participate this week, you can always participate next week.
Good luck :)
Wow, looks like the interest is sky high for this one (sarcasm). Its only me and CB currently, you only have tonight to enter, to enter please PM me to let me know, otherwise you cannot because i don't want to mess CB around by waiting longer, the deadline is the end of Friday so if you want to sign up, sign up.
Sorry to double post.
Guys.. on behalf of all dial-up customers who find it very hard to download vids, could I make a request that you also post links to an audio-only track? I'd really appreciate that.. they are easier to download and listen to, if, like me, you don't have broadband..
??
That being said, I did take the time (and lots of it) to watch the two vids posted.. and the audio track too.
Do I get a vote?
Yeah sure, will do, if we get anymore people saying that they are up for it.
I find it strange that people were all enthusiastic about it but when i tell them what the next competition is, nobody replies except for CB.
/me was just late replying.
Signing in now, though. :content:
