Ok through with that - all should be better now.

Did some RR on the big block and the part after.  Pretty tricky section.  There seems to be another part at the end messing me up.  Let's try some RR...

@ Rodman

I know it's hard to make a good selection that fits all paths in terms of difficulty ratings. However, these difficulty ratings in the bass path are very stretched. 5.5 for advanced and 10 for masterclass? Why didn't you choose a song from sheet only bass songs with a rating in the range of 7.5-9?

[johnal]

[johnal]

 

First impression 7 or 8...ha ha.  Let's see if I can figure out that first riff...

[johnal]

Ok, a little better  So, pretty much same riff the whole way.  Fun to play tab, but, does not sound correct.

Now - that 10 is more a 9... but it has been played before and it´s always a bit unsatisfying to have a path in the database with multiple diff ratings. Adv gets an easier week which is good from time to time. I had a lot of time for that selection and all is good as you might see.

Not a winning score here, but for some reason I kept getting streaks broken when I was hitting every note? I'm not sure if the track just isn't timed to the song or what but it hated my playing.

Bass sight reads

i would like to think I was just warming up on the first one but really it was a combination of the fretting and my plucking hand receiving the wrong signals from my brain.

 

[MaZtoR]

Steel Panther is a really immature band, but i really like them.

[luckyoldme]

It definitely looks like I  got the fretting a lot better 2nd time through.

[coldrampage]

Bonus rhythm is the 5 string bass so I just played the standard rhythm.
"Played" is a bit of an overstatement with this score tho.

4 string bass time.

Really struggled sight reading this one.
