A little Jemsite contest for a free pack of 7 string EB 10's


OK, well I'm bored and realized that I sold my only 7 string. So why not make a little contest to see who can win it. I figure since this is for a 7 string, why not have you guys come up with a really cool 7 string lick (i.e. must use your low B string somewhere in the lick), record yourself playing it (either video or audio, and no more than 20 seconds) and the Tab for it for all to see , post it here and I'll make a poll for everyone to vote on it, which would last for only a few days.

I know the prize isn't much, but its something and I know a lot of you guys are kids and even a pack of strings can be expensive if you don't have a job. I'll also throw in a few of my favorite picks (black Jazz III) and stickers for the hell of it.

The first 15 people who can get theres up and running will be in the contest, since thats how many can be in a poll.

Anyone who's been a forum member for more than a month can participate, and any location (although shipping will be pritty slow outside of the US).



(Glen, if you have any issues with this, let me know, and I'll just have a "first person to PM me gets this" contest, but this seems a lot more fun.)

You would have to record only one riff and have it 20 seconds or less not a whole song.

If you guys can come up with a better idea for a contest, I'm totally open to any suggestions.

Re: A little Jemsite contest for a free pack of 7 string EB 10's


I'm afraid I had a slight-but-nonetheless-unfortunate drunken cheese-slicing accident over the weekend when I somewhat disasterously decided to go with fresh-grated romano instead of store-bought ground parmesan, and thus I'll have to bow out for at least the next couple weeks.

Moral of the story - after like 18 shots of tequilla, you probably can't taste the difference anyway. Though, it was sort of funny to hear my roommate walk into the kitchen and say, "Holy shyte, dude, are you ok? There's blood everywhere!"

Re: A little Jemsite contest for a free pack of 7 string EB 10's


I wrote/recorded this last year as an Evo7 demo for somebody on the forum, so this is recycled.
http://www.invisibleband.com/Kennydo...mo-trimmed.mp3

I've never tabbed before...I'm more of a 'notes' guy, but i'll give it my best shot.

E|----------------------------------------------------

G|----------------------------------------------------
D|----------------------------------------------------
A|-----------------2---4-2-------------------4b6-----
E|---------------4---4-----4--------------------------
B|0-2-2-0-2-0-2--------------0-2-2-0-2-0-2----------


E|----------------------------------------------------
B|----------------------------------------------------

D|----------------------------------------------------
A|-----------------2---4-2----------------------------
E|---------------4---4-----4-- 4-4-4-4---2-4----------
B|0-2-2-0-2-0-2---------------2-2-2-2---0-2----------

Just to be fair, this tab is what i meant to play...there's a mistake in the first line.

If you are bending the 6th fret to the 8th fret note, this would be the tab:

--6b8--
