Rhythm and gog improvement - My fretting arm/hand tendons need a rest now

I'm still somewhat of a novice but what I'd like to add is that always moving the strumming up and down even when there are no actual strums and also counting out loud 1&2&3&4 or 1e&a2e&a3e&a4 will do wonders to the time feel and picking up new patterns more easily. Of course, starting slow at something like 60 BPM or even lower is always the way to go

Advice for Strumming practice (away from RS) @ lowender Pick a nice sounding full chord get a metronome . Practice down strokes, practice up strokes, practice Alternate up and down strokes. Start with quarter notes and go through all sub-divisions Then mix the sub-divisions up. Work on syncopation hitting that 1 downbeat harder (really helps) and then change the beat that gets the harder stroke (up or down)

Thanks for the advice Now I have an excuse to buy another guitar!! I really must use RR more often for lead and rhythm. I'm mainly a bass player and can play usually play most songs straight away on bass, but I get frustrated on guitar when i'm strumming as I cant do it quick enough with just downstrokes.

Thx for all the feedback on BB diffs. Makes me happy that those arpeggios are a lil harder than i thought for everyone Its a (6) now. Rock!

Or is it you getting slower?

I used the Postimages. I hope it goes well. Oh, it's a impossible song...!

It's better now.

sorry for the late reply, but yes I meant the volume of the acoustic, so you're already answered. Tones for lead / solo are pretty good! You are definitely an expert in creating CDLCs just a little upgrade, but I'm bad on the solo sightreading I've also tried (but not finished) Convergence (Rhythm). That's a neat and tight song, I dig into the riffs. Good pick @ Bottledpat12 ! I will use that as a workout and in the meantime enjoy the musicality of it!

Thankyou for your help @ Daz40 and @ BubbleWrapDragon I definitely need to practice more outside of rocksmith! When I started playing bass I picked it up really quickly and playing it felt like second nature, but I'm struggling with guitar and I feel so awkward when I play.

Improvement but it's still hard to sustain all the notes for each arp phrase - But I'll keep on doing it that way to learn the song properly

phu

and a lil better

That issue is fixed. All scores in the board. Player XP Level and 10-week Leaderboards updated.

Mastery playing there, @RaZ!!! I bow my head to that confidence hitting that fast notes on the solo - bravo! What a guitar also! I am generally not a 100% of bindings, but that white binding to contrast the dark part of the suburst, just 10/10 great. Love that guitar! Keep doing those, man! Its so motivational to see you fly through a song thats on the CS. I really hope i find to do some covering also again soon. Rock!! But i know you do.... Rod.

Yeah. Right! That´s what i encountered also - RS trains your frethand way more than your strumming - as well in terms of rhythm as for the strumming technique. I am working on that also permanently because that is what makes your playing sound bad and lame. What does help me is grab the acoustic, choose a random key and play easy chord progressions but focus on the rhythm sound and strum routines. Play slowly! Rod.

Working on why the BackstreetBoys Scores are not transferred to the Leaderboard... The rest is approved manually now.

Yes, in the rhythm path the acoustic tone was even less clear because I used a different tone than in the lead. Previously it didn't bother me much, but now I use different headphones where I can barely hear the tone, so I made version 1.1 where I set the same tone for lead and rhythm and turned up the volume a bit. Available for download in the same folder.

Guitar improvements I tried again but I wasn't able to make it better. Yes, 6 is the right diff rating. What's not good about this is that the score is determined by the part with the quick chord jumps between the 10th and 13th frets. Up to this point I'm playing with over 95% accuracy and this part is ruining my score... I can't even improve my first score from testing Slight improvement, I need to practice these chord licks.

Bass Really fun chart, like it! My fingers are not ready for GoB yet, but I'm still waiting for GoB score from @ cacahuate51 who suggested it for the championship and rated only 8, so it doesn't have to be very difficult for you

34 years in and I still struggle with Guitar . But found Bass really easier to get into In the last year..

hey rodman thank you so much dude... i love playing that guitar looks plus playability is on point!

Rhythm Stretches again...

I tried GoG but my hand was defeated by these stretches. You have to practice a lot to play like that Btw. Where is @ Bottledpat12 who suggested this song for the championship, I haven't seen you for a few weeks, you retired permanently because it was too easy here?

I really need to work on my strumming patterns for lead and rhythm, I really struggle with up strokes! does anyone has any advice that would help?
