Colleagues,
I hope this thread is still alive and this is the right place for this. I wanted to give back in small part for all the great work people have done on the CDLC. As a novice guitar player, I decided to submit my “I Have No Business Playing This” Challenge Song: Slash & Marta Sanchez – Obsession Confession. It challenged me as a player and have had a lot of fun playing it. I hope people enjoy it as well. All versions can be found here:

Few Comments
This my first CDLC. I grabbed the tab of the net and found that the tab was 3:30 min long and the song was 5:40 minutes long. Further, the tab was outright wrong in some places. So, I tabbed it myself. Another first. While I learned a lot and I think I got it, I would like to have a second (third, fourth, ..) set of eyes and fingers take a look at it before I officially submit it to the forum.
I used On Top Of The World Clean Tone… Seemed close enough, but if you all have better suggestions….
I tried to tab every technique Slash does (bends, slides in and out of notes, vibrato, etc). This makes it a lot harder song to play. Was that too much or should I have tried to simplify the tabs?
I didn’t put fingering in as, as a novice player, not sure if my fingering is the most efficient.
Finally, two notes are not coming out right and any suggestion would be great
1) First note is tremolo with a sustain…. I have tried linked and unlinked notes and it only shows up as tremolo Its kind of weird as in other areas linked notes worked.
2) At time slice 3:35ish & 4:48ish, there is a full step pre-bend on B string 8 fret… for some reason it is not registering as such in Rocksmith. Clearly I am doing something wrong here.
Anyway… thoughts and comments are welcome.
