i was wondering the same thing. i think it would be a lot easier to record it right over the song since i usually just play along with the song anyways but thats just my opinion

That's what I'm planning on doing. I've tried this before.. All you have to do is play the cd as usual, not too loud, and just turn your amp up and play along.. But make sure you have the mics right up on your amp, and when u listen to it you can't even hear the actual CD, just your guitar. It's great. :D

I usually plug my amp into the Line in of my PC soundboard, and in the volume settings, I put it so I can hear the song and I can hear what I'm playing, but only what I'm playing is recorded.

I ask you all, please... be patient. :) We're still lacking some stuff, and therefore, it's essential to wait. The Discussion about songs and some other stuff will come later; The most important thing is to have fun and to know fellow musicians, not being able to play the most difficult Metallica song ever. It's good to see everyone interested in this project, but one step at a time please. Thank you and cheers! ;) [] :rock:

ktuluxxpuppets: It would be best to record from Emerica's track, instead of following the original; One of the purposes of this project is to do a cover, not an exact copy of the original. Like I said: We'll have to wait. I'm sure he'll post something about it whenever he's able to. :D

Blexi: I can play some stuff, like MOP's first solo, or Sanitarium 2 first solos (the second one is still a bit sloppy but it'll get perfect with a bit of time and work), Nothing Else Matters... Rhythm-wise, I can play up to Whiplash or No Remorse. How about you?

Sorry, I just see this Tribute topic today, I hope is not too late, I'm a drummer and I can play a lot of 'tallica songs from Kill 'Em All to St. Anger, if you still need a drummer count with me I'm very interested in this tribute.
Let me know. ;)
