    Will be a while.

    But in the spirit of knocking the ball back over the net, here's my Californication solo recorded in April.

    Nice! Great tone there, can never seem to get a nice clean tone going

    Yeah it's not bad, dno what the settings were - it's a PRS CE24 plugged into a Yamaha THR10 plugged into Garageband. Nothing added in GB, straight input from the amp.

    I'm hitting the ball back... I posted a Pearl Jam track I really like in another thread earlier tonight, and it got me wondering how hard it could be. I had a few goes at it then recorded it. I'm sure I can get it more slick but here's my attempt after half an hour of trying to learn it... and yes, sorry, you've got me singing this time! Unlucky!

    Ball received. I've not forgotten I am due to do Wicked Game when I get some time. Or I may do In The Midnight Hour.

    Good work, all the way through. Raw is in the right spirit I think. I wish I could sing even a bit!

    My biggest challenge is still singing and playing at the same time. Really messes me up! I've practiced that a bit more and it'll get there soon. Going to start trying to incorporate more finger picking once I'm happy that I've got the chords and lyrics down.

    yeah singing and playing simultaneously is a head****.

    I can struggle through Dancing in the Dark vocally as long as I chop the rhythm in 4/4. But as soon as I try and do a strum pattern it's gone.

    nice tune, new to me.

    I always liked Eddie Vedder's voice. The Into the Wild album is one of my faves, superb film too. (Though the book was a bit 'meh' to me).

    I've tidied it up a bit after a few more attempts and fiddling around with the Les Paul coil taps to try and recreate the original tone. Not quite ready to play that all the way through yet though! Might do some light drums over it later and see if it sounds better.

    This was lots of fun! Birthday afternoon recording and mixing with a mate over a few beers. I played all the guitar parts apart from bass, and did the vocals. My pal is a bit of a guru on a mac!

    My teacher asked me to do some improv, with some consideration to the backing progression. This is cut 1, unrehearsed and unedited. Needs some melodic structure I think. Everything except the drums is me.

    Well that certainly ticks every beginner solo box I think. I can do much better I'm sure. Good to have it up for the record though.

    Ta. Yup - currently my little brain is all taken up with the playing, I need to free up some bandwidth for listening too.

    New distraction project for when I'm fed up with other practice. Started this the other day, getting there but damn it's tricky!

    Not sure where you are playing this dude, but I just found it much easier easier with a capo on 2nd fret

    I'm aware it's not per the original, my guitar teacher gave me the tab for that bit to help me work on finger picking. It was never meant to be anything more than that

    Some inspiration in this thread!

    Here's me trying to get over my fear of being laughed at and sharing something.

    Recording quality isn't very good, I'm still trying to figure out this USB recording thing!

    Haha thanks. I've always been a harsh critic of myself with anything so sharing this sort of stuff is hard! Need to learn to get over myself though!
