SDUGF Riff-Off

A few months back I entered a couple guitar riffs into the Seymour Duncan User Group riff-off. The riff-off was a tournament style challenge where members voted on their favorite entries. Entries were due quickly and had to be limited to simple guitar riffs, not entire songs. These were my entries. I didn't get very far in the riff-off but it was a fun exercise. The first one received some good feedback and the second one was quickly recognized for what it is: a half-asses riff that was more concerned with replicating Robin Trower's guitar tone. Riffs were recorded using my Fat Strat in Garageband with the Pod Farm plug-in.
