here's an example of easy solo guitar jamming: a latin vamp am7-D9 with simple bass movement, and some silly chordsequence to break it up.. ")
The corny trumpet is from Roland GR-55, as well as the pitched downs string 5 & 6.

The clicking sound: it that from slapping the strings on normal pickup? It can't be a PCM tone, because you are using your two slots for bass and horn. Anyway it sounds like a percussion player just about.

Clever playing, and it sounds like a whole band. That is hard to keep going with only one track. Well done!

thanks Dream_theory!
And yes, ofcourse the clicking is part of the normal pickup sound. PCM (and that means pitch to midi conversion) for percussionstyle fingerpicking is a def no go on GR55. It would be a nogo for any conversionscheme actually, you'd get the same trigger for any note you play, so that is where the natural sound is about the only one you'd want to use.

Well I don't know what percussion style pingerpicking is, but you sound good when you do it!  Don't forget the "virtual soundhole" (see this video 6:37). ! No longer available

And PCM means 'pulse control modulation'- has to do with the way that the samples are recorded, I do not claim to know exactly. May have to do with weaving together samples of instruments in different registers to avoid changing things and getting a sort of munchkin like effect.
