    5pts @stratman3142 ; felt like this one really got into the groove and was most natural along with the backing 
    3pts @Bellycaster some really good phrasing in here, just pipped at the post
    1pt @DigitalDave loved the smoothness and thickness of the tone but was left craving a big shred section :smile: ala Vai

    @DigitalDave: Soaring melodic guitar. I really like the motif. There's a bit of a Carlos Rios (Gino Vanelli) vibe to it.

    @Bellycaster: Bluesy funk. Interesting lines and some nice edgy notes

    @fastonebaz: Certainly brave, imaginative and off-the-wall. Music for a psychedelic interlude in a dodgy 70s film

    It's not a competition.

    enjoyed all the solos :)

    5 point @stratman3142 that fat sound and the notes / phrasing nailed it
    3 points @Bellycaster made the changes great and fit extremely well with the backing 
    1 points  @fastonebaz I'd say joint second but I can't, loved the curve ball approach :)

    After a flying start I was hoping we'd get a bumper crop this month, but hey ho!

    5 Points - @DigitalDave - Love the tone and sustain here, flowed nicely and went in some interesting melodic direction.

    3 Points - @stratman3142 - Liked the jazzy feel, full tone and the usage of double stops and single string lines. Definitely Groovy.

    1 Point - @fastonebaz - Nice one for going for something different. Underwater, mind altering Jazz. It should have been "Scuba Manoeuvre" :)
    And they said that in our time, all that's good will fall from grace, even Saints would turn their face, in our time.

    3 pts: @DigitalDave - lovely energetic vibe.
    1 pt: @Bellycaster - nice ideas throughout.

    PS: gutted that I never got the chance to enter this one, I was looking forward to it but various other things got in the way. Hopefully back soon.
