All feedback on the entrys in here plz :thumb:

Hi Naif, just had a listen to your piece, liked it alot, great sound on both acoustics, a lovely piece of music, definately deserves to be longer and i think lends itself to lyrics too (i know we're not allowed them in the comp, but i can see why you going in that direction).
Great work mate and best of luck :thumb:

Hey Avalon. Thanks. Just listening to your tune now. Very nice piece of music. I love when it slows down and then picks up again a little after the middle. Great dynamics, great guitar sound, and great playing!

You guys did a great job!! I just posted my humble entry..

Lovely work D, great tone on the rhythm and lead, and lovely arrangement too, best of luck mate :thumb:

Thanks brother!!

Dunno where the hell to cast a vote on this, three fine pieces of music guys. I did buy new strings for the acoustic but they seem to have vanished :( Will try to come up with something anyway.

Its open until the 18th mate, so plenty of time as yet :)

Naif, Avalon and Dallas, Just posted mine up then had a listen to yours! Great stuff all 3 of you! All very diifent but equally impressive in playing and tones. Don't think mine has quite met your standard but hey ho! Itll be fun!

Hey Dallas, that was a cool tune. Very nice acoustic sound and some speedy playing too.

Stereophony, I think that's a real improvement in tone ya got using a mic! I kinda thought there was a bit much effects on the rythm at first, but as I got used to it and got into it it gave the tune a nice spacious feeling. Very relaxing and a beautiful tune.

Man I'm not gonna get many votes with you three in this comp, hehe. But who cares, right? :notme:

Thanks Naif, and i'll tell ya, i had a go at micing the battered thing after your comments in my last acoustic post. So thanks mate! It does make a huge difference. I did find it difficult to understand what sound i wanted from it but im sure like anything else it will come in time and lots of practice. Probably why theres too much verb on this?? Anyway enuff of this essaying. Thanks again!:thumb:

Stereophony. I agree with Naif. Very nice! I love acoustic stuff!

Came back for another listen after posting my effort, Stereophony, I agree with the others on the improvement in tone, took me forever, and a lot of good advice, to get my head round recording acoustic, it is not easy. Sounds like yo got it sussed now tho :thumb: Nice to see a few entry's this month too :D

Thanks Dallas, yeah gotta love acoustic, i learned to play my first chords and songs on acoustic, i'll definately always have one!

Cheers Steve. Your right its not easy, thing i found doing this is when your even remotely sloppy (see attached MP3!) it gets captured with bells on. Glad you all gave me the advice to mic instead of line in, the difference is huge, even to me.

OOOOps, almost forgot! Nicely played Steve, again different but equally impressive tone to the others. BTW. Wales to beat Scotland by 10-14pts, great win last weekend!!!!

Hey steve. Good to see (or hear) ya in the comp as well. That was some nice pickin'.

Thats a lovely piece Stereophony, im not overally familar with the Stereophonics, but it sounded great, very spacey feel to the chords and well worked to bring the songs together, great work :thumb:

Great work by you too Steve, its a lovely arrangement, the stereo effect with the chords sound great, and i really enjoyed it :thumb:

Best of luck to you both in the comp, and its great to see some more entrys :yourock:

Thanks Avalon!! Its a good turn out so far, i hope there'll be a few more yet? c'mon guys n gals!!!

Well, i have no delusions about mine being anywhere near the top spot with all these wonderful entry's here!!! Very well done one and all......great mix of styles and tones throughout. Good luck to all you guy's!!!:yourock: :D

Bloody hell ... a whole LOAD of excellent entries. This s going to be one helluva mutha to call ...

Andy - great tone :thumb:

John ... don't put yerself down so ... you're the best guitar-playing drummer I've ever heard and that piece stands up proud alongside all the rest.

This is REALLY gonna be difficult to pick out the 'best' !

Excellent entry John, you're such a great vocalist i think sometimes we forget just how good you are on guitar too, thats an lovely piece indeed, certainly not crap, i want that renamed, or else i will :p
Beautiful tone on all the guitars, happy, flowing feel and some equally lovely lead, like Cap said, you're way to hard on yourself, this is a cracking entry :yourock:
Best of luck mate :thumb:

Thanks Jamie, and John......i know i shouldn't be so negative about my playing, although i still don't think it matches up to the likes of your good self, or pretty much the rest of these fine players..... i guess as long as it's fun, thats what really matters!!! Thanks for the confidence boost fella's!!!!:thumb:

Hey John, good to see you in the comp as well. Excellent entry. I really liked those country-ish bends and the tones on both the rythm and lead. Great entry.

Bloody hell ... a whole LOAD of excellent entries. This s going to be one helluva mutha to call ...

Andy - great tone :thumb:


Thank you Captain John!! Yeah im not sure whether its better to be in this or judging it. Those other guys can sure play guitar. Bit out of me depth tho i think.

JPF, i agree with the rest. excellent tune!! Yet another great example of a different tone and style to everyone else. Great job.:thumb:

My sentiments exactly :thumb: See ... its not just me :lol: They are right tho, sounds fine to me.

This is the most enjoyable listen I have had in a long while guys. I even wrote my thoughts, ( 3:30 AM here ATM, lol!)
Per: Cool stuff, lotsa change of pace in there but cool man!
Jamie: I´d love to listen to that on a real acoustic man, what a lovely piece of music!!
Todd: Seems like you can´t go without your ´shredding´ even on an acoustic thingie huh? LOL, sounds great man, :)
Stereophony: Sad busyness there, but very melodic!
Steve: mmmmmm yeah! enough said!
John: Florida? Nope! You live in Colombia, lol! Man, that was sweet!

I ain´t voting for anyone, but I wanted to listen to these and comment whatever for sure. Boy you all played some wonderful stuff. Thank you guys!

Thanks Uke! I really enjoyed everyones takes! Acoustic guitar is just a blast!

Thanks Tony, it was nice to finally finish something original, even though it was a short piece, i might even come back to it at some stage and give a makeover :)

Cheers Tony :thumb: Nice varied bunch of tunes there, still time for some more tho.......

Thanks for the listen Tony, much appreciated.:thumb: Sad indeed mate, 'Billy Daveys Daughter' (the 2nd part of the track) is about a girl who jumped off the Severn Bridge that connects England and Wales. Thanks again and i hope a couple more people post before it kicks off on Monday.

Great entry Tony, always a big fan of your acoustic work, the tone and playing are exceptional :bowdown: , and its great piece of music too, best of luck mate :thumb:

Hey Tony! Glad to see ya entered a thingy as well! Killa playing and sound.

Quality Uke, just quality! Glad you decided to put one up. Your right man, its all for fun.:yourock:

This was a very fun thread! One of these days we should do an acoustic jam!! Great tunes guys. I enjoyed everyone, but since I'm not much of a music critic.. I'm not good at reviews.

7 entries then......not bad...not bad, and going by what i heard its going to be bloody hard picking a winner [ 7 times harder than last month lol] as all were exceptional wee recordings. :rock:

then again, still time for last minute entries!

regards,
jim.
