So... when my choice is selected ... what should i do but add some motivation to it.. double tripple ;) http://i60.tinypic.com/9ifvok.jpg http://i58.tinypic.com/2dipt9s.jpg

same as @'s score by accuracy but better streak :P http://up.picr.de/22033116xr.jpg

For warming a bit practice with great a song by Muse. Updated score: http://i.imgur.com/YyPNMdC.jpg

So, I've been kind of stupid and worked on lots of stuff that isn't tapping or legato, so I haven't made a huge amount of progress on the song, but I figured this was worth an update: http://i.imgur.com/QDtervn.jpg Hopefully I'll be able to move on up a bit once I actually practice the stuff that's holding me back on this song. @@2groggy - I totally get you on the floppy strings. D standard I find OK on normal strings, but there are some Mastodon songs that are AGCF (which pretty much has to be played with a B string) and some 5 or 6 string songs that are in drop A (AEADGC or something similar), and for those the low string is barely playable because the tension's so low. As for the genre, CoF isn't really my thing, but the vocals are at least less annoying than I remember them being when I heard some of their stuff a while back. I also think a lot of the fun of this is getting to listen to bands and genres that you wouldn't hear normally. Even if you don't wind up liking them in the end, I always like being exposed to (and learning to play) new types of music.

@@MaZtoR Seems hard practice wait to you :ph34r: Updated score: http://i.imgur.com/qppcrno.jpg

2 played runs in 75% speed, one in 85% and one in 93%. It did a whole lot of difference for my understanding of this song. And it improved my accuracy greatly to. :) http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/The%20foetus%20of%20a%20new%20day%20kicking%209649_zpshg1bo3xq.jpg Thank you for your updated version.

Arghhh! I wanna be sedated! https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKeG54ZGRzSkZ3Xzg/view?usp=sharing And Muse: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKV0lVRXZiRHVYZnM/view?usp=sharing I haven't tried the Advanced one yet.

91% MC Lead - forearm's dead too, unrelated to guitar playing though. Think I pulled a muscle or something, can't exert any force with my middle/ring fingers. Oh well, don't need force to fret :p http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/540775541814082930/B652DB845EA6E5694847FBBA7E0CDA2BBCD098D1/

Calibrate and up volume a bit helped for pass SC. But anyway this outro part strange, i not sure that there right tabbed this tapping. Update score: http://i.imgur.com/OxUmk2x.jpg Look at youtube a lot cover, and now i sure there wrong tabs. So it was bad that too not replaced bass line fro MC. Wasting time learn it.

Beg Lead: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/38624183362271508/DD283BB1EC594B6AB2BB37662D632FBD0231CF95/ Beg Rhythm: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/38624183362270969/95AA36CF7102FD66DD24C998734527AB1E09834A/ gave muse a shot too, got around 80% or so, but will keep playing it and post an actual score in the next few days i think.

ahh, finally - some REAL MUSIC in the CS ;) http://i61.tinypic.com/35mnxfr.jpg

ah, another great muse song, pers target 95% http://i58.tinypic.com/29e29tu.jpg

There some unplayable tapping part in the end a song. Almost nothing not registered. I was kicked form SA a few times, at last notes. There my score: http://i.imgur.com/KwP6bpD.jpg

guess where the strike happened http://up.picr.de/22027523gt.jpg yes, at the very last note of course

Ramones! rhythm: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/711912327653591419/E055DDB7CFC1541FF59E455B70A4B1C3B48934CD/ lead: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/711912327653590718/76608D6385BBCDD5B9A159F882C0130280AB8656/

I'm having trouble with the selections for my classes this week. For advanced bass, the genre just doesn't interest me and I really hate the floppy strings on low tunings. I've worked on Cradle of Filth for an hour or so and ran it through once to get a score on the board and do something else. 80% I much prefer the Muse selection. It's taken a lot more work in RR at a lot slower speeds too. So far, I'm at 88% accuracy, but the score is not valid because I got leveled down in one section. The ugly truth is that in all of the palm mutes, I'm playing single notes instead of doublets, and the system doesn't notice the MISS. I really prefer this song so I'm going to focus on this one this week. I'll slow it right down in RR until I'm satisfies with my performance and then up the speed a little at a time. Edit, On Muse, I'm playing lead, bot bass.

Ramones - 100% - http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/544153241555691461/E4994AF96ED10AE8AE3A0FB0F8DB1629B300CC73/ Muse - 97.7% - http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/544153241555691606/5C3995B3A648C778BB902FA523CC2664F711C979/ I felt pretty good about the Muse song. :D

It's half term so I'm gonna take a miss this week, I'll probably fall off the board but not that bothered tbh, all the more fun working my way back up again, and besides, I really need some practice in the lower tiers to build up some lost "abilities" from slacking off moving house and working etc... So, as loosely promised, a video of Big Gun :) A bit late but... (I went all Australian there!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUrM77qs_2s

1 try lead... http://i61.tinypic.com/34ffnm8.jpg

http://i.imgur.com/Gr5MlBq.jpg

played the rhythm with the wrong arpeggios. http://up.picr.de/22019198cy.jpg

not bad this one, I only miss the palm mutes and the tones could be better. tab is ok, a few minor issues but nothing dramatically. http://up.picr.de/22019063cp.jpg but the rhythm path needs some fixes in the calm arpeggio part and during the solo. I will do a request.

http://i.imgur.com/xHPeUyd.jpg

Good a song, simplehttp://i.imgur.com/UlrtbC2.jpg but funny. My score: This a song too cool for play. Update core: http://i.imgur.com/0A1tipm.jpg

Int Bass 99.48% acc, 242 streak. http://i61.tinypic.com/28sq0e9.jpg Think this should definitely use that "pour some sugar on me" rule or whatever it is called. I had never heard the song before, this was only my second play of it. Still if it's as easy on lead thats something lmao :)

I'd love one... 89% this time arghhh! I think it's the Barre chords, killing my fret hand.

I don't know why, but for any reason I cannot pass the outro in Addicted To That Rush with less than 30 misses. If I try at full speed it's 30-50 misses, and even if I play in RR with speed down, at every speed the same, tried until 30% speed, the same. I tried many various ways to play, with hammer ons/pull offs, with slides, plugging each note, with pleck, also tried tapping (index on 3rd fret) and tried all technics in 5-8 fret on E-string, always the same, all about 50 misses and of course one strike in the end. If I get only 30 misses there I'm very lucky, but it doesn't matter which technic I use :(

1st run for muse inter lead: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/711912327653694372/1D1D1CED0B941338D55A2E3BF8C11848AD47DE8D/

HI Guys!! http://i58.tinypic.com/15dszkh.jpg Klaw

ok, second run on Ironbound (great song) http://i62.tinypic.com/4r8hfs.png and i was curious about the Muse song, so i gave it a try and here's the score http://i59.tinypic.com/2eat9gg.png i'll try the resynced version of the Cradle of Filth song now. Did i mention i love this?

There rebuilded version cdlc Cradle of Filth -->> New beatmap, resynced notes, changed fingers positions in lead. My score after update cdlc: http://i.imgur.com/S4bloWk.jpg http://i.imgur.com/YSxAy21.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Z44FA7E.jpg And yet my rate for lead, after update and RR, there 6.

@@Mortalo I've played this one a few times, I wanted it for the guitar, its good. http://s29.postimg.org/67zwhmlaf/2015_04_30_00002.jpg I will vote against this one being struck down(unless its rhythm because I never played it, but then again rhythm did just go from no song to a song). As far as my secret project...well...here is a teaser :P http://s10.postimg.org/mfi7939wp/2015_05_24_00001.jpg

Never heard this song before. Sounded like shit when i played it. I think i need to listen to it a few times without playing. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/The%20foetus%20of%20a%20new%20day%20kicking%2080_zpskbrxohx8.jpg

Yet score: http://i.imgur.com/2UEpucL.jpg

I like this a song, for a few reason. It very fun to play, despite at a lot missed notes it sounds very good and crazy fun (i`m used my pedalboard for fun and very similar tone), Yes it very hard in same time, but it look like a song with high diff rate for intermediate class, when for they impossible pass in SA, but we early stayed a song for challenge. So second reason that my vote don't change a song it MC players too must be one some time to got rape ass :D Such way MC players will be more good understand feels participants of other class. And i don`t see big issue with charting there, exclude complicated a song with a lot notes+techniques. There my last attempt: http://i.imgur.com/BnSbkyf.jpg

My CDLC "Cradle of Filth - The Foetus of a New Day Kicking" has just been updated.

GODAMMIT!! 87% on Muse lead and it had levelled me down in 2 phrases :unsure:

Those palm mutes at the start look oh so easy, but i just can't seem to get it right consistently. It seems like the right way to pick this is to start with an up on the D7 then down on the same note, down on the G9 and up on the same note, then repeat. This sound right?? So far.... http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/6d8j97d1rv6ztxz/221680_2015-05-25_00002.png?dl=0

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=448118436 my fingers are sore enough i forgot to put in the link. enough of the whine and cheese, back to practice....

Kinda felt like Billy Sheehan for a minute... http://s18.postimg.org/9jm2j11nt/2015_05_23_00005.jpg

Beginner Bass - 100%, 713 streak, 1.485.530 score To ease some tension 100% score :D

I have to be honest, playing this song is a COMPLETE mess, a lot of slides going nowhere, wrong notes and stuff, it's really frustrating on the first try, but well, here it is http://i.imgur.com/03CEynh.jpg

the strike comes with the last note. Always http://up.picr.de/22006399ae.jpg at the last note again http://up.picr.de/22006511sl.jpg

I'm going to need to work on my pulloff technique too... http://i.imgur.com/Sd6TUJC.jpg I don't know how I didn't get a strike on that end section. As I said above, I'm definitely going to need to practice my tapping and hammer-on and pulloff technique (that section at the end). In addition, I'm probably going to need to go over some of the more complicated tapping sections so I actually have some semblance of an idea of where my hands should be, rather than just flailing at the fretboard and hoping. Edit: Just did a runthrough on RR to see how many notes there are in each section. The first tapping section had 72, the second and third each had about 100, and the outro had about 170. I think the total note count in the song ended up a little below 1300 (maybe 1286?). So those sections (which don't include all of the technical and hard parts) comprise over a third of the notes in the song. In other news, I'm helping out on making a bass version for Mastodon's song The Motherload. I've made the bass part in a Guitar Pro tab (the 19th measure should match the 27th, but I think otherwise this is the most recent version) mostly based on this live performance, especially from ~1:10 through 2:40. The studio version is here, in case anything's done differently between the two versions. If you could check it out and see whether it seems accurate, that would be a big help! I haven't done much of anything with the part during interlude and solo, and it would probably also be especially helpful to double-check what is a slide but shouldn't be (or isn't a slide but should be). Thanks!

And I actually think this is a fantastic score....http://s29.postimg.org/3n23bxbnb/2015_05_23_00003.jpg This song is soooo fun to play....even though I cant play it :( http://s3.postimg.org/42oxwn11f/2015_05_23_00004.jpg
