Wow so many amazing entries, they are all ace, well done everyone.

5pts @Vibetronic he came along, cured cancer, saved all the starving babies of Africa, dropped the mic and left (i actually can't work out how he played the 2nd part and would dearly love to see that on video!!)
i found it really hard to pick the next two let alone order them but eventually decided on:
3pts @Bellycaster i loved the tone and the restraint with some splendid wandering melodies
1pts @DigitalDave again I really enjoyed this, especially the start of the 2nd phase and the ending

sadly we can't offer more points or joint places but that's the game.

well played guys.

Superb entries, you guys have such technical ability!

5 pts @Vibetronic what can I say... sensational... jaw droppingly good.
3 pts @stratman3142 combining melodic and shreddier parts excellently
1 pts @DigitalDave great build up from slower melodic... then goes soaring and shred, great stuff

Vibetronic · June 2022

This is really hard! I enjoyed them all.

5pts @stratman3142 - melody and technique as usual, and great use of the trem.
3pts @fastonebaz - as above really (it was so close between you two!) and some blazing runs!
1pt @Bellycaster - lovely tone and I loved the intro; your bends there were perfect.

Great job all!!

And @fastonebaz - that bit is some tapped arpeggios I stole then adapted (if you youtube a guy called Dr Viossy doing Moonlight Sonata, it's from the very first bit of that). I'll stick the tab up with a video at some point

It sounds harder than it is.

Bellycaster · June 2022

5 Points @Vibetronic - Yep, that was pretty mind blowing stuff, great runs, nice harmonies and tone.

3 Points @DigitalDave - Lovely floating melody in the first part followed by some super legato in the latter part.

1 Point @fastonebaz - Loved the sustained notes, great bends and trem work. Some nifty fingerwork in there to top it off.

Great ideas all round, not an easy act to follow with this tune.

fastonebaz · June 2022

Aha good old Dr Viossy. Cheers

DigitalDave · June 2022

A great collection of solos, I enjoyed each one immensely:

5pts @fastonebaz - melody, tone, legato and wang bar, suited the track so well
3pts @Vibetronic - fabulous, a fresh approach and superb technique - the wow factor
1pt @MagicPigDetective - great opening theme then a Wah-freakout - loved it

Well done all

Loads of corkers this month spurred on by great backing track from @fastonebaz. All great.

5 points : @Vibetronic : Astonishing as usual. Fantastic multiple guitar parts and remarkable technique and invention.
3 points : @DigitalDave : Great build, melodies and technique.
1 point : @fastonebaz : Clearly in your element with this one. Very Vai. Loads of shreddy goodness.
