Hi Scott
My, but thats a good track. No its not - thats a brilliant track!!
Loved the lead playing - just right on the money and a really classy BT too. I DO like to hear the percussion and the kick drum in my monitors was just the Job!
Excellent!
cheers

Thanks alot Ian :) since I uploaded it I can't help but feel that one of my strings was a tad on the sharp side. I'm really pleased you like the backing track, it was done with midi and soundfonts rather than drum loops. I use this method (midi and soundfonts) so that I can get a uniform drum and bass sound to all my backing tracks, so that it sounds consistant in a set. Not that I perform too often, but when me and my family trio performed at a wedding, we had 10 tracks, some Shadows midis and a few others with my own backings, because they all had the same drum and bass sound (as you would in a real band - I mean you don't get Brian Bennett swapping drumkits mid set :D ) they all flowed nicely.
Thanks again for the encouragement Ian :)
