  1. I wanted to learn guitar for ages, but had some of "those" mates in high school, that are just absolute musical maestros. They could pick up any instrument and given 5 minutes, be taking requests (flute, violin, guitar, saxophone - I'm not kidding). That was rather demoralising in school, so I stuck to piano then.

     

    Fast forward to my 32nd birthday. I now work from home and have adequate free time for learning the guitar. WIfey saw me checking out some Rocksmith videos on YouTube, asked why I never learnt to play a guitar - 5 minute conversation which results in her saying, "Well, I know what your birthday present is this year".

    It's totally stock currently.

     

    I also have a locally made nylon string acoustic that I was given by a friend that was leaving the country - but it's nasty to play (it sells new for the equivalent of $45).

     

    Since getting a guitar and starting to play Rocksmith - I decided to buy my Dad a guitar for his birthday and Rocksmith, he's since bought 4 more guitars since he "hates re-tuning" (excuse given to my Mum...... I know what he's really like).

     

    My guitar wishlist......

    This Steampunk 3d printed guitar http://www.3ders.org/articles/20131003-olaf-diegel-spectacular-steampunk-3d-printed-guitar.html

    (and if I'm honest, most of the other 3d printed guitars from that guy)

    It's basically 4 main chords, but they are 99% played as arpeggios (pick 1, pick 2 - strum rest). once you have the pattern sorted in your head, it's actually a fairly easy song.

     

    Edit: There is also a youtube channel called ThreeChordGuitar - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMrJztSEGkHSzKtrG6zf7UA

     

    Most of the lessons were posted a few years aback - but I frequently find myself going back to them when I feel it's time to brush up on the acoustic jams.

    eg 

  3. I just added this little gem to the Database. I'm still awaiting community feedback to perfect it (I'm not good enough to play it fully - but we need goals, right?) - so you might want to keep an eye on it for the Pro Masterclass.

     

     

    Extreme - He-Man Woman Hater, with the Flight of the Wounded Bumble Bee intro.

     beta of civil war with DD and without - no tones included so some problems may be experienced with tones if you go onto another song afterwards.

     

    This is a direct conversion from the RS1 version (provided by Scott22373) - original creator unknown as the RS1 section of the Anvil has vanished to me (perhaps because I was only a contributor for RS2014). If the original is your work, say so and I'll remove the link.

     

    I won't post this to the database until I can track down the original creator and get permission - so if you have an idea who it could have been, please say so.

  5. Disregard - I got it working.

     

    MacGameStore hadn't processed my payment immediately because I was using an AMEX gift card.

     

    Once its properly billed, you log into the MacGameStore site, go to your Account / My games and there is a Steam key there that you can then throw into your PC's Steam account.

     

    No need for a mac at all.

  6. Check out "China Guitar Sceptic" on youtube - he has intentionally bought several of the Chinese counterfeit Gibsons etc and modded them up to a playable level. If you really want to get into it - watch his vids. Just know that if you are in the USA, selling the guitar later is a crime and there is only a fairly small chance it will even get past customs now.
