The best song of the week.

If you want, but valentine's day is on upcoming friday, so the punch line is that you'll perform all of these to your Chosen one.

"Scorpions - Still loving you" is based on this cdlc: http://customsforge.com/page/customsforge_rs_2014_cdlc.html/_/pc-enabled-rs-2014-cdlc/still-loving-you-r1809?st=50#comment_328900 The version in the link is the same, but song is re-tuned to A432 tuning, because that's what the original recording is and my ears couldn't take the torture of playing something that sounded so out of tune. If you are too lazy to tune to A432 or are just absolutely tone deaf, you are welcome to use the original version :lol:

Not the best scores I can do, but they'll have to do.

Alright, song selection is done. I'll quickly play this week's rhythm tracks, update the leaderboards and make the topic. New week will start in an hour.

I am having some problems with song selection this week, so I think new week will be a rather late one. I found a good fit for the week, but it's pissing me off that the song is not in tune. There are two other versions for it, second one is also way out of tune and third one is in tune, but is missing parts, so it no longer fits the schedule. I think I need to find one more song, and I've not even started with bass testing yet. Just GAH!

Thanks! Interesting result :) Honestly didn't expect you to struggle with the bends. So I take you'd say the Bob Marley song is harder than the Beatles? Using toolkit to unpack the songs.psarc, which holds the on-disc songs. Then finding the files that you need to create a dlc file and re-packing it with new name. After re-packing, you can change the scroll speed in CFSM. ^ That's how it works, but I wasn't able to get that to work, but luckily I know bwaredapenguin. He does high quality dlcs; just look at the cdlcs he made of the latest Tool album. He also extracted Satch Boogie from on-disc songs and created this: <link removed>

Good test of fret hand finger muting when you strum through those A&B string double stops. And after that you always have to play the intro to Hallowed be thy name, since your fingers are already in the right position from the clean part. I don't think this is hard as 6, but the quick bends don't really like to register that well and there are very few notes in the song, so 99+ is extremely hard to achieve. I'd give it 5, with the disclaimer for note density and quick bends. Would also give this song 5. @@Snakewizard, can you do me a solid and play the Bob Marley song on lead and see how you do?

Had 1 strike before the last note of the song. How did I get killed?

+1

Same as on-disc Satch Boogie, but scroll speed has been fixed to 1.3. The notes no longer fly at me at the speed of light. Makes it much easier to read.

Can you post a screenshot of your scores? We'd like to see where you are at

And it boosts our morale when a demigod of guitar like our friend Johnal over there posts a picture of him totally failing at a beginner level song :lol: It's great to see that even he has to practice in order to get results :)

Yes, even easy works without DD. But I'm sure you can also complete it in hard mode :)

That Taylor Swift lead is basically partly clean guitar tab and party vocal tab. It's been tabbed the same way as the PC Plum's version, but this is a worse tab. While Plum messed up by also bending the high E string at those unison bend parts, who ever made this failed to bend either string (the B string should be bent two steps for sure). In any case, I'd suggest playing the PC Plum's version of the song for lead path. http://customsforge.com/page/customsforge_rs_2014_cdlc.html/_/pc-enabled-rs-2014-cdlc/i-knew-you-were-trouble-r437 Bass path was weirdly broken in PC Plum's version if I recall correctly, so playing the other version for bass is recommended. I did not look at the rhythm at this time.

One of those days... All of my first tries in LAS were better than next attempts at SA :lol:

Just went through the basses My opinions for the ratings: Bob Marley (2) The Beatles (5, maybe 6) Ten Years After (7) Joe Satriani (6, maybe 7, but easier than advanced)

@@johnal I knew I had seen this before :lol: http://customsforge.com/topic/48920-rocksmith-2014-championship-week-265/?do=findComment&comment=297310

9/12 songs at 100 % and 0 victories! Man the competition is tough! We'll sort out the grades while the week goes on.

Mkay, a 4 chord song and I can't do any of the four chords. Massive up!

Thank you for the welcome Just one question... What does being set up at intermediate bass mean? Next week i should play at that level? Felt as though I struggled here to get the 100% Play both beginner and intermediate next week and we'll see where you are at. If intermediate feels like way too hard of an obstacle, we'll place you to beginner.

You know, I was really expecting to hear a rant after that :lol:

It's over! I'm tired of sex on fire

You got to be freaking kidding me! This insanity will never end <_<
