Solo riff
« on: July 17, 2006, 04:54:11 PM »
Ok, so I was messing around and came up with this tapping solo riff on my guitar. I want to expand on it and make a full blown solo from it, but uhh..... it sounds really familiar. I dont want to think that I'm ripping it off from anyone. So if you can help me out and tell me if this sounds original or ripped off I'd really appritiate it. Thanks.

I liked it, does sound original.

However, when I played it, the people in the office asked me "what the hell is that?" ... Old people...

 Does sound familiar, but I don't know from where.

Sounds like one of those common overused guitar solos from the late 70s to late 80s. Not bad, but way too familiar.

sounds a lot like Bach's Tocatta and Fugue. Not quite, but a bit.

New riff. I was messing around... started off with some little scale thingy then kept ascending... turned out pretty good, in my opinon.

I call this "80's Riff" cause it sounds 80s. It even has the little triple picking thing in it... yeah...

It's good, but I don't like (I think it's called scratching... anyways, it's the sudden stops in the music with a high pitched noise) scratching parts.

I think your talking about the fret noise. If you are, it's pretty much unavoidable.

I think it kicks *** desi. Sweet job.

Thank you...

And about the noise... I know what you mean... it's mostly cause of the addition of my pedal, it makes the strings really sensetive to any little thing you do to it... grah, ususally I tune it out, but now that you brought it up its bothering me... grah......

Ok, this one's not original, it's a cover. Fade to Black intro solo. I messed up a little bit... but whatever...

Also, Ill have the extended version of my ascending riff up later... so yeah...
