A Guitar And Gear Support Forum

Had this riff come to me at work the other day, born from some pent up frustrations. I have a rough set of lyrics, but I'm not ready to pair them with the song, so that makes it a little empty at first, but theres a pretty cool solo at about 1:00 in that is supposed to kind of reflect that frustrations.

Gear used..
Drums -
Bass - Fender Player Series (MIM)
Rhythm Guitar- Jackson RRXT (w/ MIA 80s Jackson pups)
Lead - GJ2 Concorde 5 Star Limited Edition, built by Grover Jackson.
Amp- Amplitube 4
Daw- Reaper

Nicely done! The beginning of the solo with the way you're holding the trem, I can't remember ever seeing anyone do that before. Seems like you're pulling and pushing against the weight of the body by pulling the arm back toward the bridge, right? Regardless, it sounded cool

Dude!!! Rockin!!!

Oooooooh, I wanna hear it with some vocals!!!

Thanks! I'm sure I've seen it somewhere before, though I couldn't place it directly. I mostly just find it easier to hit the high squeal harmonics!

I have a draft written, but right now no worthwhile vocal mic. That's something I'm looking into currently! Though, I do have a finished instrumental demo of the full song (not just this first half)!

Nothing to add that hasn't been said already.
