Guitar Competiton -- Need Your Help! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Jason@DSG · 07-25-2014, 08:57 AM

Hey guys,

So I'm an avid guitar player (playing for 23 years now -- played professionaly when I was younger) and one of my fav guitar builders Mayones in Poland just released a competition to win one of thir guitars.

They basically created a generic background track that everyone had to play over and make their own solo. Then there's 2 rounds of voting, first to narrow it down to top 50 then the final vote. Unfortunately, this competiton isn't based on skill but how many "likes" you can get but it is what it is.

If you're feeling generous on this awesome Friday, please vote for me

Here's my entry:

Cheers,
Jason

You guys are awesome, thank you

And as for being a professional musician, I did it for a bit when I was like 15-21 and decided I really just liked playing. I teach mostly now in spare time, at least passing on the knowledge!

Terrible excuse, you can get great lefty guitars for a couple hundred bucks and there are really good lessons on YouTube these days. Justinguitar and martyzsongs to name a couple. Rocksmith is a great tool and a ton of fun as well. It's literally guitar hero but with an actual guitar. This really applies to anyone out there wanting to play. It's much easier starting out today than it was even 5 years ago.

What if his left-handed problems include paralysis?

...just sayin'

You're like the Mozart of heavy metal
