@@MaZtoR beat me up to changing Kings of Leon :) You need to remember that many times we won't know if there is any other version of a custom, so keep us informed :) And screenies from testing a few minutes ago :lol:

Good memories. I levelled up on lead on that song 4 years ago. Megadeth is always fun ^_^

No, we can't allow something like that. But feel free to discuss that with a charter, he may do some changes to custom.

@@Bounours some songs just don't fit with you. I had a lot of troubles with Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit, even though I should manage a good score. @@Saturnation Songs are selected by Lead difficulty so it may lead to multiple easy bass lines and thus a couple of Beginner songs (or different class ones). @@lduperval You mean transposing notes to a different string? Rocksmith requires you to hit correct sound so you can hit D10 or G5 at your will and RS should be ok with either one.

Great songs this week and I can't really play :( Some scores that I managed to get today: Some misses on chords :( Some parts need practice. Tried Score Attack, vjohnal's style ;) Couldn't resist some Pantera. Way too short fingernail to hit those pinch harmonics.

You should always take finger position in customs with a grain of salt. Play the bend with a pinky, having the 1st finger on the 7th fret.

Week 250 is coming to you in about an hour so get your screenies together before it's too late :)

Welcome @@Cymbrogi!

Yup, I change strings very rarely. But lately, I'm not playing that much. Still, I almost always change strings when one of them breaks, and I used to switch tunings a lot (from E to C). But then, my lovely Jackson was made by Japanese masters :P ...and I changed tuning keys after I broke them when changing strings for the 1st time and trying to put way too thick string (.10-.52). Since then I'm using .09-.46.

I always like Frayed End of Sanity but was surprised how fun and interesting it is to play. Got too excited and missed the screenie :lol: I had no time this week to play. It's always nice to see the improvement over the years, still, I made too many mistakes that should not happen, but this song needs time to memorize all the movements from riff to riff.

@@ZeroPingNZ you did so well on last week's Beginner Lead tune so you've been levelled up to Intermediate :)

Hey, look, MasterClass Rhythm song was selected ^_^ MasterClass Rhythm: Sylosis - Where the Sky Ends (9) as played on week 96

Some screenies that I've made during the week, sadly I cut my middle finger on fretting hand a few days ago and couldn't play. I like this one. This one not so much.

Welcome @@fjon!

I'm sorry bass players :D

Tribute to LaceyB Prince and the Others - While My Guitar Gently Weeps Some of you might heard that the one and only bass chartin' dudette has lost her battle with cancer. I had a good relation with her and decided to make this tribute. It's not Prince's song, it' George Harrison's one, performed as a tribute to him by many great musicians, including Prince on solo. It seems to be a nice tribute to Lacey. Rest in peace lady.
