I just watched module 17. Justin says I’ll find tons of backing tracks in the app but I find none. What am I missing? Is there a second app?
TIA
I think Justin means the songs in the app. They are ‘Backing tracks’ to those specific songs. I don’t think there are generic backing tracks in the app.
If you are interested, you can buy Jam tracks made by Justin, from ‘Product’ section of the website. Also there are some free backing tracks in justinguitar soundcloud

Hi Craig,
In the app you can choose on top at the songs Band,+ vocals or clicks. If you choose “Band” you have your sort of backing track.
Or maybe that’s not what your looking for.

I think you’re referring to the fact that most of the songs still have guitar tracks on them? If so, yeah I guess it would be nice to have an option for the Band sans guitar, but when justin says backing track he means the karaoke style tracks you can play in the app.

I see thanks. It’s not what I expected but it works.

Many of the songs in the app also have a “Practice” option (usually leads before the Band/Vocals/Click items), but, unfortunately, there’s quite a few “lesson” songs where this practice option is absent or “tainted” by guitar parts (picking on Every Rose Has It’s Thorn as I’m doing the stuck 3/4’s currently…and that song is particularly bad in the app; to my ear at least). Overall though, if you find the “Practice” option, it’s generally pretty good.

Craigrow, I understand exactly what you are referring to. In many of the lessons on the app Justin refers to “Backing Tracks” and actually plays along to the tracks as part of the lesson. Then he encourages you to incorporate playing along to the track as part of your practice sessions. Yet those tracks are nowhere in the app. In fact, in the practice session it will say “A Minor Blues Progression” yet that is NOT what plays. You get the same exact track as the C Major Pentatonic practice. It really needs to be corrected
