I think it's going to be a great week! All good charts and songs to play. A cross section of different genres and styles.

A few notes:

I haven't fully tested masterclass and GoG songs on guitar paths. However, I looked at each chart  visually, so it's ok. When it comes to GoG and GoR, I can't determine if this is 10, because it's too difficult for me anyway, so I trust @ nlbsmglsk  diff rating.
The bass path in RHChP song is quite difficult for an intermediate level (could also play as easy advanced), but this is a good chart and suited for week selection.
Wobbler song is a 20-minute composition! This is not technically 10, but the length means this can only be used as a GoB.

@ Razrshred  You got the best score in the masterclass on bass. Do you take the win and level up to masterclass?

Ok, I edited winners list. Congrats on winning all 3 paths in the masterclass!

[nlbsmglsk]

Not really a sight-read, since I played it once when rating.

[nlbsmglsk]

Played it some more, this is the best score I can get today I guess.

[nlbsmglsk]

Sight-read. @ Mikson I can get to 99 in a week I think.

[lowender]

hi, can one of the mods confirm that i'm back in the intermediate bass class this week @ Mikson  or @ Rodman . thanks

[Rodman]

Confirmed, @ lowender

[Zoutje]

I think I will take a break from competing for the time being. My hand issue is getting worse (I had surgery some time ago) so I won't be able to play much for some time. I hope I will be back in the future, but for now, have fun all, and thanks for the fun times.

Oh shit! All the best, and never forget you can join in anytime - even if it is only to have a sloppy go on the weeks song or just to say hello!
I really wish you will be back soon in full force!

Excited for this week! Breaking the Girl is one of my all-time favorite charts and I expect all the other bass selections to be great as well.

Much better run, the first riff is a little tricky.

[johnal]

[lowender]

had fun playing this one!

[Rodman]

Nice week!!!

I´d go straight (7) - the end of the solo has speed that is clearly 7, and also other parts have taps fitting 7

i fear i will be of limited use that week - fell hard on my shoulder and left hand today skateboarding, moving my arm hurts badly, moving the fingers ... semi-bad... i´ll have a few therapeutic runs on those songs now. no pain... no gain they say

 

 

 

[Rodman]

AUA - that repetetive last part

 

 

 

[Rodman]

oh man - what is so bad using standard chord shapes? (6) yes

Phenomenal band - they shall of course do whatever it takes

 

 

 

 

[coldrampage]

Lead by accident.

Rhythm.

Bass.

Wish this one had bass, poor nolly being left out.

GOB later.

[Rodman]

oh what a ride! love that, (8), yes

 

 

 

[Rodman]

 

lead is also cool (8)

 

 

[Rodman]

yeah, hard (7)
