ummm.....hurt my ears a little bit :eekani:. Needs some work and the notes sounded real similar to eachother. Good effort though.

Good effort, but it sounds like a bit too overdriven. Almost sounds like a wacky Jazz bass line. Play it a bit faster without as much distortion, maybe change the notes a bit to suit more of a rock/blues style. Also, if you aren't already, play it with the bottom pickup selection, or even the top pickup, just to give it a more defined style.

I'm workin on a little update inbetween everything else I do. I'm somewhat changing the structure and moving some notes to a thinner string. Right now it's very low on the E string (the one on top), I've considered changing it to the top of A string (the one below). It would give a simalar sound but then it will be within the area where you can find the coolest notes.

Here's my opinion. The phrasings in the riff need to be more clear. I think it would be better if you tried to make things connect better, or more fluid in motion. Like instead of accenting each note, make it as legato as you can. I'm not a guitar player but I am a music major and that's what I would try to do musically with it, sorry if it didn't really help.. good terms seem to be slipping my mind right now lol. It could just be that you need to practice a little more on it and that's fine, no one is going to say that it sucks, because it doesn't. I like it, just practice some more on it.

Eh whoever voted shitty obviously has never played an instrument, or they did and sucked and cried about it later. Don't let one asshole ruin anything. It has potential.
