Approx 15 sec long. This is just straight guitar, direct input. No effects, no EQ, no compression. Should be about as clean as you can get it.

Sure, something less than 10 seconds that would sound bad if played wrong would be great.
How about white noise at maximum volume? That sounds bad when played wrong.
It also sounds bad when played right ;-) How would you know if an artificially produced sound effect were played back a the wrong sample rate or sample size if it sounds unnatural to begin with. Something like the guitar sound in the Red Hat sound card testing program would be ideal.
I think it was a joke. However there is nothing unnatural about white noise there are many examples: waterfall, compressed air escaping, TV with the aerial pulled out (not so natural) , etc.
I'm not sure this can or needs to be an effective test of the bit rate but a guitar snip (acoustic) sounds like a good choice.
