OM: First attempt at weekend live solo

[xhide85x]

Hi guys, this is my first attempt at recording the weekend live solo which i have been learning the past week. It doesn't sound very good, pardon me the bad timing and mistakes. Any criticism/comments on how to improve are appreciated. Cheers

Yep its by x-japan, this weekend version is from their dahlia tour concert. I learn them in 3 parts. 1st part is by hide, 2nd part is by pata, then finally 3rd part by hide again. Actually, on the 3rd part, its supposed to be played by pata and hide whereby there is harmonization of notes in the solo but i only learn hide's part for that

cool... precision must be worked on though..

Hi

I listened to your clip.

It's good that you roughly know the entire thing (I assume it is the whole solo, but I don't know the original myself) but to take the quality to the next step you should concentrate on short sections of the solo and try to make these as good as possible before connecting the whole thing up.

I recommend you also focus on the pitch of your bends. Most of your bends do not come up quite to the target note, so in parts it sounds a bit out of tune.

The guitar tone overall is not too bad.

I hope you take these comments positively as I am trying to be constructive.
