OMG It's Sunday and I forgot to upload my improvements and some songs for the last week....   :rolleyes: 

But I have a very good reason for that...  :D 
Yesterday I lost my mind and I bought a new guitar. 

 

Here I share my joy with you guys:

From a beguiner guitar to a "real" guitar.

I find lightly touching the top string when in drop D helps,

88.8% ryhthm Int

I love this song it's just the ending seems very hard.

Well, I just managed to 100% sightread the MC bass song this week, so that's always a great thing. Don't expect me to ever 100% sightread again :P

that's what I meant with unplayable chords.... but you don't need that G-string (orange), it's the same note than the B 1st fret (green).

minor issue. in my 1st post with scores I commented any issues I found, also in QOTSA custom with ways to manage them.

[fripponomic]

I saw some struggling with the Dude cdlc, caused by being unfamiliar with those slash chords i bet.

Here are any hints to master them (used finger numbers on the strings in RS colors):

best way here to play the D/F# is just grab it like an usual D chord and use your thumb from the other side (T,1,3,2).

C/G is just like a normal C chord, but 3rd finger is on E str 3rd fret (G) and the pinky takes the position the 3rd finger was before, Astr 3rd fret © (3,4,2,1).

B7/F# was also for me unusual and mostly broke my streak there, but if use 2nd finger for E and A string 2nd fret, 1st finger D 1st fret and 3rd finger on G string 2nd fret it is the same fingering like an usual B7 chord (2,2,1,3)(play it with fingers 2,3,1,4 gives me also trouble most times)

If wanted I could take some fingering pics

My second go, because my first was pants:

And then when this did start, I was asleep:

Nice bass line though.  I'll play it again later in the week if I feel like a bit of a rest...

 

Yay!  My arm is now dropping off:

And then this.  I picked it because I couldn't play it, and I wanted to get better at bends.  But @, you are of course absolutely right; it's a lot easier if you play it as slides.  (I should have realised, what with that impossible first fret bend, but hey, I come here to learn :D):

And here's one I did earlier (and I don't quite know how).  Those strikes were right at the beginning - double stops?  Gotta get better at those too...

hi guys

[2groggy]

Yup, slides it is (thanks Fripp). For QOTSA I Never Came on bass I'm a little above 97%

 

Note that I never claimed to be any better at slides than I am at bends. :D

[KJParsley]

My first go at beginner bass this week:

After a while, when I had only one miss, I realized that I'm just over 1 minute of the song. It was tough.

 

http://i.imgur.com/kiZPc5o.jpg?1

This one was surprisingly tricky.

 

http://i.imgur.com/rDu12Rp.jpg?1

Slided it all the way, though sometimes it was hard to tell whether I should slide in or out (into the note depicted, or out from this note)

Guitars are funnier to play :)

[MaZtoR]

Improving.   Could have been a bit higher buy my only fan decided to stand in front of the screen for a while before he placed himself at the front row for the show.
