Int bass: Honestly more fun to play than I was expecting.

Adv bass: Nearly messed up the first fill, and for some reason the beginning of the last chorus, but still managed 100%.

MC Bass: A lot of fun to play, and the Rocksmith gods were kind during some of the latter parts of the song. Looks like I'm not going to have to do it until I'm unconscio. Just a matter of time until someone out-rhythms me, probably, but at least this one doesn't have tons of repeated notes (which is usually where I get far away from perfects).

I didn't think the bass part of Camarillo Brillo would be masterclass material (and I still don't) but I guess one has to always see it in comparison to the other tracks. Also, yeah. One of my customs is in the CS, so no matter how busy I am, I gotta produce some scores this week. :D

Also gonna play some lead and rhythm on Camarillo Brillo, because I can get some decent scores on those. Won't be hard to get 100% though for the pros.

Why I know @@then3verend will beat me this week:

Way better than my previous best (1,312 something) but still far behind. Plucked everything with my index as that seemed to yield somewhat more consistent results with the timing of the notes. I imagine a pick would be even better, but I'm still too lazy to get a good pick.

Looking forward to getting stuck into some Tenacious D this week - although I'll be avoiding Takin Care of Business, hate that song with a passion !

 

Be glad Takin Care of Business isnt in your Class :/

I think I'm supposed to be doing intermediate class this week, and BTO is the rhythm track. Wouldn't even consider touching the lead, way out of my league - good luck with it !

 

Early take on Tenacious D, lots of room for improvement.

Also another reason why I dislike BTO...I've heard it about a thousand billion times in my child-hood...but heres an appropriately theme commercial of what I mean...(btw Fathers day is tomorrow in the States)

 

ok, i thought something like this was the case.

It wasnt/isnt that viral here in Germany, i even doubt many know BTO  of my generation (mid 20s)

23 here...this would play between all of the commercials as a kid it felt like...(they added takin care of business...with Office Depot in the later 00's).

The videos themselves arent that entertaining...the catchy tune of BTO was really the best thing for them

Yeah, between Takin' Care of Business and You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet BTO has been vastly overplayed in the US. Haven't watched standard (i.e. non-streamed) TV in a while, so I don't have it as bad as some others, but it's still pretty bad.

Aaaand some more score-posts!

 

Love Tenacious D, Pick of Destiny is one of my favourite movies

Belzeboss Bass

 

Takin Care of Business Lead

Ok, i can see how one can hate this song.

Its way too catchy, and i think i will hum it for the rest of the night.

It has some cool licks in it, but all in all pretty easy song.

Some of the solo parts are strange, i dont really like bending the 15th fret on the high-e and b string non stop.

Needs a little RR here and there, but now im off into the night life.

 

cheers!

Sadly this will be my last week for a few weeks as I'm getting shoulder surgery and won't be able to play from anywhere between a few weeks to a few months. :/

 

I'll miss the competition, but I'll be back as soon as I'm able!
