do you play guitar leads and want a job?
Hi. I am doing a cover of Stryper - Together As One. That song needs a acoustic guitar with simple plucking and a lead part as on the original song. The vocal is not done yet. But drums and piano and synth is done. The bass is yet synth but I will record it soon. Is this something you want to do just answer under here. My cover https://soundcloud.com/oyvind-jarsve/together-as-one/s-p8qfd Original https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2amKXUZThA Live version so you can se what he is doing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hikzNJt0cGU Update: 03.24.2015 My cover on SoundCloud is constantly being updated, sometimes more than once a day. But I will have a break now when the guitar s being recorded. If its not something special. Update: 03.27.2015 I am waiting for the singer (a woman) to confirm that the song is not to low. Otherwise it will be transported up to E or even F. Update: 04.05.2015 Well. We took a hard decision and have transposed the song up to F. And waiting for the guitar to be recorded. I've also done some minor fixes.

Paying gig? Deadlines? I could definitely play all that either like the original or with a bit more modern bite. PM me if you like.
Danny is definitely the first person I thought of as well but he may be busy with his studio.
Cheers.

Guitar rig is perfect. I don't have a deadline. Only a small delay. I have to be shire its in the right pitch for the singer. I know Michael Sweet sings incredible high and this is a female singer. So it should be a match. But I have to have confirmation. Or else we have to do the guitars again.

Also if you can match the sound in a way that's the same spirit, but more pleasant and e.g. little bit softer on the high that would be sweet.

Sounds like a good part of the solo is harmonized.

There are three parts as far as I can tell from the recording. The main guit which starts off by itself, a harmony guit comes in mid point then those two guits start playing more or less in unison while a third comes in to take over the harmony part.
In the live version I think there may be a hardware harmonizer involved.

Ok. But they both play on it in the live version tho. Michael Sweet and Oz Fox. Oz is not in the picture, but he is on the right side of Michael. In the studio I think Michael played it all.

Do you want an exact copy of what Stryper plays for the guitar parts or is there some lee-way allowed? Or in other words, could one play what they felt fit there even though it would be different than the original band's licks? I would hope wearing those yellow and black jumpsuits ARE NOT a part of this job requirement.

That makes sense. Wasn't sure if there was another guit offscreen which is why I thought it might have been a harmonizer kicking in. I'm ready whenever you are. Cheers.

See the PM. I want it as close as possible to the original. With just better sound. If it is played as close as possible you will get a fine blend of the original and the new players personality. None for note but as good as possible. The vocals will be recorded after Easter. If you have any suggestions regarding the piano, drums and synth strings, feel free to let me know. I know the piano is not a photo copy of the original piano, but it is my take on it. But if something is missing or wrong, just feel free to left me know.

Thanks James and Beeps. :)
Yeah thank God you want a better sound. Oz and Michael (I talked to Michael a few times. He produced my friends band "Savannah" up in Boston) were decent players...they just had a razor sharp sound with biting high end. :-/
If you don't get what you're looking for here from the guys that have been taking part Jarsve, send me a pm and we can talk. I can be your last option if all else fails. I'd rather see one of the guys above land this gig though since they were here first.
Thanks,
-Danny

This was an interesting post-seeing all the different versions. It will be cool to hear the end result.
