Does anyone know a good source for cheap (or free) backing tracks to practice guitar over? I'm after something simple, such as a Bass/Drum track for 12 bar blues in a couple of keys that I can practice open/bar chords and scales/solos over the top of.

(Having gone shopping for a Squier Tele and bought a Fender Lite Ash one I'm a bit short of the readies for a G-Dec or similar so I'm looking for a cheap and cheerful alternative!)

I think I read about this website somewhere on the TDPRI...I've been using it a lot lately. The practice tracks are done with a jazz trio--piano, bass, drums. Even if you're not a jazz player, there are major and minor key blues tracks in different keys and tempos that you can loop repeatedly to practice over.

Hope this helps,
