Welcome to the very first RiffScape guitar contest! We've partnered with Reddit r/Guitars to create a 'Write a Killer Solo' competition based on the backing track provided in the downloads (located above this video). Objective: Write a solo that fits well over the provided backing track. The backing track is around a minute long, and your entry should be roughly the same length. Look into "A Dorian" to help you solo over it. More details are found in the downloadable zip file when you click "Download backing track" above.

    Here's my entry, hope you all enjoy it! I didn't think about a single ounce of music theory when writing this track. I just picked notes that I thought sounded good in relation to the backing track, and slowly began to build out the solo.
