Here is a recording I just made today. I am using my Cole Clark Australian made guitar here. For those who don't know Cole Clark was formed by 2 renegade Maton employees in the early 2000s. Today Cole Clark and Maton are two world famous Australian guitar manufacturers. I used a custom backing track here where I deleted the acoustic guitar part so I can play on this track and sing as well. I wasn't happy with the backing tracks original backing vocals (not loud enough) so I added my own layer of my own backing vocals. I haven't been practising my strumming lately because I have been busy practising songs that don't require strumming like Tears In Heaven (Eric Clapton), Blackbird (The Beatles) and Hey There Delilah (Plain White T's). I felt my strumming on this song is much better when I am not singing and playing at the same time but I was quite happy with the strumming on this take. I guess it is still not a perfect take guitar wise and singing wise but I didn't mind this take so I posted it on Youtube. It's a country Rolling Stones song and The Stones don't do many country songs and decades later after they recorded this song in 1971 they said it is a terrible country song particularly the guitar. Jagger says he is more of a blues singer than a country singer. I thought it is a great number regardless of how they felt about the song. Any feedback either good, bad or just OK are welcomed. Cheers!

Yeah with custom backing tracks you can choose to delete whatever instruments that are on the track or even delete the backing vocals and vocals. You can even lower or increase the volume of any vocal or instruments. They are very cool. You can get them from karaoke-version.com
