Title: Not Quite Everybody
Record your solo over the top of it and then submit it (ideally in mp3 format) to solos@theFB.co.uk
Also, feel free to comment on how you approached the solo, which will add a bit more interest and maybe we can learn something from each other.
There should be headroom to record your solo. Try to set a level without excessive master limiting, because we want to avoid loudness wars.
Voting will start soon after the submission deadline, with each voter selecting their 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice.
First choice gets 5 points - Second choice gets 3 points - Third choice gets 1 point
The order and scores of the top three entries will be announced soon after the voting ends.
No prizes. It's just for fun.
As people submit their entries, I'll post them below to hopefully promote some discussion on approaches used for the solo:

Thought I'd start the ball rolling.

Lots of dirty octaves and a pinch of reverb.
I'm overseas for a short while due to unforeseen circumstances so I won't be able to take part, sadly.

I'll get started on my entry soon.
Not sure why, but the ideas came quite quickly for this one
It's called 'Everybody Thinks They've Heard It Before'. Sorry couln't resist
I know I'll possibly miss out on votes - or perhaps not!!!!!!! - you've heard my playing!
At the moment I'm looking for:
