Merry Xmas, Rodman. http://i63.tinypic.com/2vww5s0.jpg :D :D :D

FreeBird Hijack! The six string virtuosos have their GoG competition (but whatever they do in the privacy of their own bedrooms is their business). It's time for a special bass only track - something for the festive season, yet challenging. In honour of Rodman's new bass for Christmas, I suggest Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses: http://customsforge.com/topic/33151-christmas-wrapping/?hl=waitresses Of course, being a FreeBird challenge, points will not be assigned. So all entries will be accepted and appreciated, be they emulated bass, tubas through microphones or kazoos through octave pedals. The wackier the better. Have at 'er! (and take that FreeBird police!)

HEY GUYS just had some tries at that rainbow song (I made a mistake on the easiest part :| ) http://i67.tinypic.com/se3fx1.jpg I'm not going to spend practice time on this one, I would say 7 in difficulty I just used it as a warm up to practice one of the hardest (and best) songs I've ever played... Fatal Tragedy is nooo joke. ALSO ! I'll just leave this link here : http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php/719817-A-guide-to-achieving-low-latency-in-Rocksmith-on-PC-Forums Highly recommending it... it really made the game better for me, as I had some latency before. so we can play acoustic guitar... can't wait to see some Paco De Lucia as MC lead song ;) would play it for sure

Pretty good song this week. ive kinda grown up with rainbow (my mother has actually met them.) https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4zebKHkDZhIRHNoOHJRNDBwdUk/view?usp=sharing pretty easy but fun.

goddamit that was fast shock!!! (in the most positive way) http://i63.tinypic.com/okzkfo.jpg

Sorry if I've missed it explained but what time is the end of submissions? http://i66.tinypic.com/10cqd77.png http://i64.tinypic.com/2j68wf7.png So excited for this new guitar! Il post some pics when it arrives. I was gonna go into how i can never quite get the highest % because of various issues with my current setup (was on the verge of buying a Harley Benton kit-build (might still do)), but now i'll have no excuses!

Wow, just when I thought I got the highest score, someone gets 100%! Sheesh, I think I'll just stop here then. http://i65.tinypic.com/29nuyz7.jpg

http://i.imgur.com/yI3AafK.jpg Practice now and surprise your friends on New Year's Eve :D http://i.imgur.com/v3s6Lbw.jpg I felt that this bend solo is easier then in Bee Gees tune, so that's why Beggie. http://i.imgur.com/5Pxk91P.jpg That was trickier with those chords. http://i.imgur.com/qDP010u.jpg Difficult. http://i.imgur.com/aIWD8zk.jpg Very fun. Solo is quite something, but doesn't look too techniquely complex. http://i.imgur.com/56hoCDL.jpg @@Rodman tapping? :huh:

Here's my sightread.

works great http://up.picr.de/27743290bl.jpg http://up.picr.de/27743293ja.jpg http://up.picr.de/27743296zh.jpg

Accuracy always outweighs score. Score only comes into it when everyone's getting 100% accuracy.

that sounds ok, cool song and i cant stop listening to that album http://up.picr.de/27734409dg.jpg

I JUST WON A BURNS MARQUEE PRO GUITAR, A VINYL PLAYER AND 10 RECORDS!!!! WOOOOOOP WOOOOOOP!!!!!!!! (I'll try better the MC score after I've eaten dinner... right now i'm Hank Marvin)

@@2groggy ask Roddie as his making next week come true ;)

rhy ... that tapping sequences .... :wacko: http://up.picr.de/27743962wo.jpg

1st try lead http://up.picr.de/27743487ej.jpg

2nd run .. actually good, nice song http://up.picr.de/27743381gp.jpg

I really have no clue how to make the bends register... http://i.imgur.com/vLv8Dna.jpg

And here it is the rhythm parthttp://i.imgur.com/DCOA4UN.jpg

I hope im still in time for the submissionhttp://i.imgur.com/Cxkkopt.jpg I will try to do the rhythm part as well

Sorry to post again, but I was wondering if accuracy outweighed score.

I'm back, anyone miss me? MC Lead: http://i1372.photobucket.com/albums/ag342/Yeezy_Chryst/20161216153637_1_zpspvjucvtd.jpg MC Rhythm: (100% accuracy with 2,470,295 points and a 973 note streak but the image was corrupted, so I'll just do a 2nd run) GoG: http://i1372.photobucket.com/albums/ag342/Yeezy_Chryst/20161216155138_1_zpsh4ba10q3.jpg

Here's my first goes of the week on Bass...... Muse first as I love this old Smiths song.....this version is a lot different though onto the Bee Gees, which i should improve on over the course of the week........ Then on to Derek and the dominoes everything was going reasonably well until the end when all of a sudden my fingers stopped working, literally just completely stopped listening to my brain and just seized.

Dear Santa Roddy, Have I been a good enough boy to get one of those Marcus Miller Jazz basses under the tree this Christmas. PleeeezPrettyPleeez. I know that chimneys are small and basses are big, so I would be really happy if you gave me all of the parts except for the body so I could make another of my homemade FreeBird creations.

Christmas Wrapping ... I was working on it this last week, so this isn't a first try 97.67% I played it on this - 34" scale. Because it uses piano tuning pegs instead of machine heads, I tune it to D standard and put a capo at the second fret. That way I can down tune to Eb standard by just moving the capo.

@@Rodman Have fun! I wish i got a new guitar this christmas, lol :p

@@Vodka yeah it's all fixed now just needed re patching, ready for a new week

You should build up yourself a library of 10-20 songs that you can manage somehow at a speed of about 80%. Write down your progress, and increase the speed. Train sectors daily in riff repeator, Try to memorize, and play them without RS, look your fingers and care about technique. Use your own tone effect and amp, thats how you hear best your errors. Build up a library of different styles - melodies, arpeggio's, finger picking, simple chords, rhythm patterns. Don't forget exercises, you find them in my collection topic. p.s. my customs are also tagged beginner, intermediate, advanced and every charter should do so ;)

If you're on Mac, you need to re-run RUN_PATCH_RS.command. http://customsforge.com/topic/33889-how-to-add-custom-songs-on-mac/

Usually between 4 and 7pm GMT on Saturday.

When you link to the RocksmithToTab utility in EOF, you need to link it to the command line utility (RocksmithToTab.exe) and not the GUI program or you may get the problem you described.

thanks again to those choosing songs. another song that i would not hear if not for the charters. this part of the country doesn't carry anything close to this on the radio. now my fingers are ready to fall off, but i still like it Do you not have WiFi in t'outback? :) That we do, but only if you hold the antennae in your left hand with your right foot in the air. and sometimes lean to the left. :lol:

Sounds so terrible... http://i.imgur.com/4R4lYlR.jpg

You have fixed your Mac? I was scared you will not play this week anymore!

I have downloaded the new .dll and placed it in my rocksmith folder and the game launches up fine, I can see all my custom songs, and they are all at the right mastery. However when I go to play any of my songs it just doesn't do anything. Rocksmith stays at the play song screen, but is still active as in not non-responsive. I have already tried uninstalling and re-installing.
