Jam Along Backing Tracks!! - RnB/Soul Jam Added 19/6/20
As some of you may have seen, I recently reactivated the Six-String Samurai Facebook and Youtube pages, to push myself to try and learn new things in this socially distant era.
I wanted to do a video this week with my Marshall SV20 (mini Plexi) and Tube Amp Expander rig, and naturally I veered towards GNR-land (because of course).
Then I figured, by the time I've written and recorded an "in the style of" track, I might as well open it up for others to jam to!
And thus, the first backing track in my new Jam Along series was born.
Please have a listen, have a jam and let me know what kind of tracks you might be interested in next!
UPDATE - for a change of pace, here is an instrumental ballad track for you to jam to, in the style of Andy Timmons. This one was done using the GT-1000 and is one of my favourite solos that I've written to date. But if you want to get straight to the backing track skip to around 1:30.
Here's Jam Along #3!! A funky soul/RnB style jam. Something a bit different for me. Heaps of fun to do. All guitar tones are Katana, and the organ/synth/keys and bass are from the Roland JD-Xi.
If you want to keep up with what I'm doing, please chuck me a like or subscribe!

RIGHT?! The SD-1 gives it a great kick in the pants to send it to classic 80s Marshall territory.handsoffmatt wrote:Great clip Ed. That mini Plexi sounds killer!!!!

Re: Jam Along Backing Tracks!!
Did just that last night. Even turned on the old Marshall JMP for a change with mostly just a SD-1 and GE-7 in front for different gain levels, granted in front of a load box and some IR's to keep volume at a family friendly level. Can't have had the amp for a long time, as the smell of hot dust etc was in the room for a while afterwards.slash-ed wrote:Thanks guys!

Re: Jam Along Backing Tracks!!
Are people going to post vids? I had a quick rip through the 1 rounds of the verse and chorus to get the ball rolling...
I don't normally play over this type of backing track, I'll have to put some work in to get it sounding a bit more coherent and less like a bunch of random noodling.

Re: Jam Along Backing Tracks!!
I have been jamming along with it having great fun but as soon as I hit record it all sounds shit .. hopefully that is because to many red wines
On a side note I am so bloody sick of wine and beer, I need some RUM damn it
