SLASH To Judge Guitarists In 'Ultimate Guitar Showdown'Music Nation, the online home for independent artists, announces Slash's Ultimate Guitar Showdown, an online competition in search of the ultimate guitar solo. Guitarists will be judged by one of the most recognizable figures in modern music: Slash, current VELVET REVOLVER and former GUNS N' ROSES guitar god, and now the animated star of wildly popular video game Guitar Hero III. Looking to serve any and every guitar-wielding gearhead, Slash's Ultimate Guitar Showdown will award one competitor, courtesy of Gibson, Slash's favorite guitar ? a Gibson Les Paul guitar ? and the setup that brings it all together ? a Marshall stack.
Slash's Ultimate Guitar Showdown will empower bedroom guitar heroes and bands with killer guitarists to go head-to-head for bragging rights. Entrants can upload their videos and/or mp3s at showdown.musicnation.com to create an artist profile beginning today. Slash will not only be the sole judge of guitar craft, but guitarists can also browse the website for hidden interview footage of the iconic axeman himself.
Musicians can enter from today through December 4. Beginning November 19, musicians will gain valuable feedback from the public, who can rank competition entries via head-to-head voting before the best ten are judged by Slash beginning on December 5. The winner will be announced on the web site December 10 with four honorable mentions.
