    Default Backing track (a rough attempt)

    I had a little time this morning so I threw this on the Jamman to play with.
    It's in the key of C if anyone wants to play with it.
    I know it's a rush job, so don't expect much...

    I added some simple lead here on about half the song. The notes are here;
    Strings..low E to high.
    E...frets 3 &5
    A.. 2,3,&5
    D.. 2,3&5
    G.. 2,4,&5
    B.. 3,5,&6
    E.. 3 &5
    Then I just mixed 'em up however...

    Thanks, Justa. I really enjoyed your take on it. I think you nailed more of the "surf" part. I laid down a lead that was more... well, I don't know what it was to be honest, just...different. I played this one all the way through, left it w/ mistakes and all.
    Hey, it supposed to be fun, right?

    I used that old strat copy I refinished in that "Warm Danish on your body" thread along with a Digitech RP50 w/ some delay straight into a Boss BR-532 (I call it a BR-549 in honor of Junior Sample) recorder, with the Jamman looper playing the backing track.
    Really liked that mix you added, Justa. Couldn't hear you as well as I wanted to, but you sure got that surf sound goin' on!

    Really enjoyed hearing the both of you! Thank you. I downloaded them, stuck 'em on my iPod, and was rocking down the road on the way to a court hearing in Fairfield, ID. I was loving the surf tones. Nice way to spend some windshield time.

    Thank you so much, Steve. I love playing so much, even when I'm rushed to do so, and recordings end up with "clinkers", I don't mind putting them up for others to listen to. I just have fun, and try to help when I can.
    Be sure to check out Box.net, it's really good, Robert was right on the money with this one.
    Here's an old one I stuck on there. For instructional purposes only.
    Like I'd know, huh?
    It's a backing track with a Valve Junior and an RP-50

    Hey man! The box.net thing works great. I finally got to hear this tune. Very nice. Great playing. It reminds me of listening to Oliver English at my local supper club when I was a kid. He's the brother to Willie Nelson's drummer.

    Great tone and superb playing. We need more of this on the fret. Keep it coming. Yahoo!
