A very simple response to the prompt! 2:24 of some improvised guitar over a couple of motifs, thinking ahead that it could be added to with other elements.
There’s an amplified electric guitar in one speaker and a mic’d acoustic in the other. I’ve done this trick many times by mic’ing my Ovation while running the piezo pickup direct into the DI box. This time, though, I flipped it around: I ran the bridge pickup of my Gretsch Electromatic direct and mic’d the sound hole of the semi-hollow. I used one of Logic’s virtual amps on the electric and then added some tremolo to both. Thinking ahead to a future collaborator, the song is in C mixolydian, 120bpm so that should be pretty easy 
The song is tired, happy, maybe a little pleased, but ready to be done, like the college kids on Pittsburgh’s South Side waiting alongside the locals at the grocery store bus stop for the last 83 bus.
I put the song as a .wav in my OneDrive shared folder for downloading; Soundcloud as usual for listening.
