    This is so great we are getting so much participation! This was always my favorite part of the fret. I am back from out of town and am listening to the latest now. Not sure why the backer got louder. The original one I looped before everyone started recording has a consistent volume throughout. Is it bad enough for me to try to mess with? Or should we just keep going?

    BTW, although everyone is giving me credit for getting this started, Robert should get credit. I just picked up his backer he made some months ago, and dusted it off and looped it. Thanks Robert for such a great track, and for a place like this where we can jam amongst friends, feeling comfortable enough to do so without worrying about being sneered at. It is really a wonderful privilege! Like I keep saying, I hope to get my contribution recorded this weekend!

    Yep, it's a nice BT and thanks Robert. But SVL, you had the idea to start the collab, so you get a share we well. Thanks to both of you. This is a one of the best aspects of music sites. Hope we do more of it.

    I managed to get some rare guitar time tonight and couldn't resist jumping in on this one. My blues chops are somewhat lacking these days due to lack of practice but it was fun to play around with this. I'm using my US Deluxe strat into a PODxt connected via USB to my laptop and recorded using Reaper. The settings I downloaded from Line6's tone library (it's a Vince Gill setting - sess below). I decided to go as clean as possible on this one, I'm in from 10:19 to around 11:44.

    Great stuff, Lev. You're right, it doesn't get any cleaner than that, which leaves nowhere to hide, but your playing and tone don't need it. Nicely done, fellow strat freak.
