SLASH's 'Ultimate Guitar Showdown' Head-To-Head Widget Available

November 28, 2007

A "head-to-head" widget for Slash's Ultimate Guitar Showdown, an online competition in search of the ultimate guitar solo, can be found below.

In Music Nation's Slash's Ultimate Guitar Showdown, guitarists will be judged by VELVET REVOLVER/ex-GUNS N' ROSES axeman Slash, 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. Slash will not only be the sole judge of guitar craft, but guitarists can also browse the web site for hidden interview footage of the iconic axeman himself.

Musicians can enter through December 4. They can also 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.
