This is the solo from the Journey hit "Who's Crying Now". I learned it from an old Marc Seal "Guitar Mania" lesson which I have on CD.
I played it with my Ibanez Artist and a patch I made on my GT-6. I use the neck humbucker for the beginning and end, and the bridge for the middle.
Please critique....and happy 4th of July everyone!
Its a great thing when you realize you still have the ability to surprise yourself.
Dave that was simply AWESOME! You have the tone down perfect too! Gotta love the V-Amp!! Would you mind posting the tab for that solo? I have been trying to learn solos and that sounds fairly simple to play.
Thanks!!
You nailed it! 8)
Sweet patch you made too, the tone is perfect. :D
I have the GT-6 also. What settings did you use if you don't mind me asking?

That sounds stellar! Well done. I wouldn't mind seeing the tabs to that either...though I should just try and figure it out by ear *grumble, grumble* :smile:

Copy what the people above me said. :)
As for some critique: both your vibrato and bending seem to be somewhat underdeveloped compared to your other skills. The bends are off about half the time and the vibrato seems a bit weak and absent at times. From the way it sounds I guess it's not as much as strength-related problem but more technique. I know this is nitpicking in a way but if you can improve in these two areas I think you have all skills a good lead player needs. :D
Thanks for the input - I'll keep working!
Arjen - not nitpicking at all - I appreciate your insight!

AWESOME :D What Arjen said is true but hey...there is ALWAYS room for improvement--the dog
Very, VERY, good!!! take a bow!!!
dude! that's wicked, i loved the stairway solo too, where do you get there wicked backing tracks?
Rock, dude it sounds great. I thought all your recordings sounded good, I especially dug the chili peppers tunes allong with stairway. Can't wait to hear more. I too would like to know where you find sweet backing tracks like that.
Thanks! Most of the backing tracks I get from Total Guitar Magazine, which is based in the UK. It costs an arm and a leg to subscribe....you can usually find them at Barnes and Noble too.
I haven't recorded in a while because I've been jamming with some new friends and frantically learning new songs. It's a real blast!

WOW that was saweet, NICE job!
I am gonna go practice some more.

I listened to a few of the other recordings, too.
Nice work!
Guess I need lots more practice, too. :oops:
