Notes:
- my diff rating skills are rusty, so if you see a mistake speak up - it will be corrected
- bass part for "Inwards" only gets bonus assignment because some notes are off-screen in beginning of song
- I clicked 'yes' on all the auto-promotion prompts, didn't check previous threads for opt-outs. If you're affected and don't want to level up just post.
- Selection kinda done by rng. I admit to interfering with the process a bit by not re-rolling the Steel Panther song when it didn't fit. Instead I re-rolled other paths. So, not truly random but not hand picked either.

I kinda don't want to level up to Masterclass bass

just out of curiosity for the guitar players here; do you set down your picks/plectrums and actually play finger-picked bass songs with your fingers?

if so, bravo - that is a completely different skill than using a pick (and i'll admit i suck at using a pick)

I'm not gonna sit here and try and debate the difficulty range of instruments, but each serves a job, and they are not 1:1 comparisons.

First attempts for the week.

This is not quite Adv level IMO - maybe a 6 but I'd bump it down to 5.5 as it's so short and repetitive:

 

I think 6 is fine. With the riff going across all four frets thoroughly, I wouldn't want to rate it lower, because it seems like it would be a challenging intermediate song even though it is not a specifically challenging advanced song.
