We have permanently suspended Lil Ramen Noodle's account for repeatedly scamming people who commissioned charts from him. While we don't know the full extent of the problem, we know this was a frequent occurrence. We have issued temporary bans and restrictions over time, which have helped motivate some refunds and completion of work. Ultimately this policy stopped being effective, and we apologize for not suspending his account earlier. Additionally, we have permanently suspended 65 days for monetizing charts behind a "Ko-Fi". Our rules are clear and stipulate that CDLC linked to on CustomsForge should not be locked behind a paywall. His ban is also effective immediately. Using a new Ignition feature, all charts belonging to Lil Ramen Noodle and 65 days have been moved to our Abandoned user. This user's purpose is to store charts for users who have requested that, or for instances like this when accounts have received administrative action. It's possible for any user to request ownership of an abandoned chart, just contact a staff member. Charts are given out on a first come, first serve basis. Taking ownership makes you liable for issues with the chart and requires you to update it to match our 2025 charting standards. We are grateful to all users who have taken the time to report these issues with Lil Ramen Noodle. While investigating and actioning users is a time-consuming process, we do our best to ensure a safe environment for all our users.

My project is at a point where I want to share it. I 3d printed a guitar body and paired it with a kit guitar neck and electronics to make a playable electric guitar. I even cut my own "signature" headstock It is assembled from 7 printed parts The side pieces attach with nuts imbedded in the core piece. I paused the printer at the layer right before it seals up the cavities for the nuts. A closeup of the pattern on the surface. It was rougher than I wanted, so I covered it with a piece of aluminum foil and ran a hot iron over it to smooth the plastic. That was tricky, because any wrinkle in the foil transferred to my surface. I set it up, adjusted the pickup heights, and it plays! I've never had a Tele (as you can probably guess by my backwards switchplate) but I am blown away by how good it sounds! Perhaps I will use it on one of my covers in the near future.

Charting Standards (2025) To improve the overall standard of CDLC going forward, we are implementing a clear list of what constitutes the 'reasonable standard'. For charts created in 2025 onwards. Charts from before 2025 are not being randomly deleted or going anywhere unless the charter decides to remove them themselves. Reported charts however are bound to these new standards and any updates you do must follow at minimum the Required: section. If you are unsure about certain components that make up a CDLC, you are more than welcome to ask questions in the #creators channel in the CustomsForge Discord server. Required (functionality): The following list are aspects of charting that functionally affect the final product, so it is of everyone's best interest that charts are created with a solid foundation. - Charts must have 10 seconds leading silence, and roughly 2 seconds of silence at the end of the track. (Adjusting your audio files in a DAW, like Audacity before you start the project is usually the best practice.) - Charts must be made using a decent audio file. (Ideally sourced from a reputable place like the official band website/ Bandcamp and not a rip of the YouTube music video) - Charts must be made with sufficient accuracy transcription wise. - Charts must be synced adequately. - Charts must be set to the proper tuning. (Using tools like Tonart can help you detect the true tuning of a song if it's not 'standard A440'.) - Charts must include tones. - Charts must have manual Phrases and Sections set. - Charts must have Dynamic Difficulty. (can be generated using the DLC Builder) - Charts must be made using the latest tools available. EOF/ Charter and the DLC Builder - The DLC Builder does a validity check of the arrangements and will give you a list of ''issues'' it has detected which you should fix before uploading to CustomsForge. - The DLC Builder also sets certain values, like the Scroll Speed and the Song Volume, automatically for you to match the ODLC standards. It is in your best interest to leave these to what they are set to by the tool. (Go to File > Configuration > and ensure the ''Calculate Volumes Automatically'' box is checked) Required (playability): The following list are aspects of charting that will have an impact on the visuals of the chart which you should also take care of. Having projects which have the visual side of things done correctly can drastically improve the quality and playability of a chart. - Accurate Fret Hand Positions. (Don't rely on auto-generated FHPs) - Proper chord fingerings. (Don't rely on auto-generated chord fingerings) - Note sustains are visually appropriate and have at least a 1/32 gap between the subsequent note. - Correct pitched vs unpitched slide usage. - Manual Handshapes where appropriate. Repeated failure to follow the above will also result in your upload privileges being revoked until you can prove you can create CDLC that are up to current day standards. Nice to haves: The following list are finer details of charting which are not mandatory to include, however it is greatly appreciated if you do go the extra mile. - Lyrics that are accurate. - Charts include a path for Lead, Rhythm and Bass. - Verifying chord names. - Referencing live videos/ artist playthroughs to help with accuracy. - More defined tones to match what is in the song. - Further fine tuning to make charts almost equal to ODLC standards: ODLC looking charts guide Further Advanced charting technique guide Uploading charts to CF / Ignition: - Proper spelling of artist and song. - Include music video (if available) as well as Song Duration and Year. - Correct tuning and appropriate tags/ genres. - Include a Mac (m.pasrc) file if possible. - Author notes that has information about the chart, not the song itself. (no big copy/ paste from the artist Wikipedia page.) Extra guides: DAW/ Song Audio guide DLC Builder guide Rocksmith bass tuning guide Firekorn's written CDLC how-to guide

🪩🌏🌖 CHAMPIONSHIP NIGHT!!! 🌖🌍🪩 YEEAAH!!! 🤟🤩🤟🤩🤟🤩🤟🤩🤟🤩🤟🤩 It's great to stop by here after a blank for a couple of months!! Thank you @ Rodman , as well as @ Mikson and @ cacahuate51 , for keeping the World Wide Championship alive! Sorry for not being able to host weeks for a while! --- Intervals - Sure Shot > this is definitely the type of music I like! I really like discovering here new bands like this one and also have new challenges. And also I like the feeling of being concentrated like hell to try to play a song at the very upper limits of my capacity! 🤣

Ok regarding the Space Oddity cover it looks like everyone is waiting for me because @ cacahuate51 and @ diceslinger forced me to do it first 😆 The problem is that I didn't have much time to try to do it, I installed Reaper but I still don't understand how it works, I based it on this short description from Caca's post. Based on that I managed to record one rhythm track, I wanted to add something with Lead (mini solo) and add a Bass track, but I don't know how to combine multiple tracks. You mentioned that you can't record while playing Rocksmith so I didn't try it, I played watching a YT video. I'm going away for 2 days so I won't have more time to work on it this week unfortunately. I did anything to start and so you can start presenting your professional covers 😉 Bonus from Rocksmith

eyo this week is no joke! but why is it hitting like okayy I absolutely butchered it, 5 difficulty on both for me because the picking feels like dance dance revolution, just chaos

It is 38°C where i live, i have no AC, but i just need to play, the improvements are being so massive in the last month for me... Pretty easy, first try 100%. Yeah, i'm still strugling with arpeggios. Much harder, but i think its because i don't play without a pick since 2010. I don't remember how this song is and i played it 2 hours ago, lmao. I think i can do better with the SG. Japanese people are insane.

I guess I have discovered I don't know how to bend notes or RS can't detect them. Does anyone else have issues with bend detection?

Yay! Cost me some tinme but here we go!!!! THE anual LEADERBOARD OF THE YEAR 2024!!!!! CONGRATS TO ALL WINNERS!!!!!!!!!! Rock on!!! Rod.

Me myself - i am in the middle of a very demanding pre-xmas quest.... which will be a decision 4 life 😱 I have spent playing for 10 hours or so - when placing my order i was absolutely sure it was gonna be a tough reace between the Martin D-28 and the Taylor 814ce builders ed. but NOOOO - it´s not that easy. The Gibson Hummingbird sounds so awesome (and if you ever have a chance to open up a premium Gibson acoustic - do - that smell of that guitar... insane), who would have ever ever thought it could compete - it´s competing to stay hard and atm in first place, maybe a tad behind the absolute surprise candidate the gorgious Taylor GT K21e, completely made out of hawaian Koa - it only landed in the basket for being a black friday deal - so far always in 1st or 2nd in any blind audition i sent to my friends. So - all 4 are still absolutely up for the place in my livingroom, playability on all perfect, no dropping of any there. Today i´ll gather my family and hear what they hear and say. What can i say - life is hard. P.S: It´s unlikely it´s gonna be the Gibson, cause i don´t wanna buy a Gibson - but if you ever test one - play some J. Cash 😉

And the playthrough:

My first time participating lol. Btw i used score attack because i couldnt get the speed 100% to show up in learn a song. I read the rules about using score attack being allowed so i hope im ok here 🙂

@ Vodka I've been worrying about my string snapping all week, I just replaced them at the end of last week and then I saw it was the blues 😵‍💫 I've discovered the more you make this face the better you play it

Missed last week, not gonna miss this one

Hey guys, 1st time participant ! I love what you are doing here, was looking every now and then but I was too shy to participate. I hope I'll be diciplined enough to stay around 🙂 This is my 1st 2 attempt for this week's songs Edit : Sorry I will set Rocksmith in english next time :')

I thought I wrote out a whole routine for you. You want better technique I guess you need a metronome and get your timing down . there Is no instant gratification as satinuke said You have to enjoy and endure the boring stuff to get better I don't know what level you are at but I was 20 years In when I thought F!!! this time to get serious . I went completely back to basics and rebuilt my whole technique A good teacher Is always going to help you progress faster but they are hard to find especially in these days of Every other person on youtube Is trying to sell you their bullshit! I would start here I use to spend 6 hours a day doing this stuff Start with downstrokes 1 note per click maybe 60BPM try to get the metronome click to disappear. then 2,3,4,5,6 notes per click do this also with upstrokes start slow and after a time speed it up do the same with alternate picking on single string up to 10 notes per click Practice this on all strings everyday Trill with the left hand single finger and all finger combinations try for 1 minute on each do a few different combo's a day I run through chromatics most days, I will run though spider exercises when my hands feel stiff Ladders on bass everyday I will run through some scale shapes on most days if I'm really on It I will go through all Interval and numeric combinations, and scale triads seventh's, forwards backwards, up and down Then coils I actually find grinding exercises fun (sick I Know) Oh and I am finally after years starting to crack sweeping, But mainly I'm trying to up my time On RS my sight reading sucks!! my RS plan 1. Championship 2.play through all old Championship songs 3.play all RS1 songs sorted by difficulty all paths 4. Play all bands in collection with over 10 songs and rate by difficulty 5.Play all odlc and dlc from 2014 by difficulty.

No rules! We pick a song and everybody is invited to share his version. Songs shall be called every week, if you don´t manage to nail your version within the week - entrances are ALWAYS welcome. No winners, no losers, just fun and personal progress, a bit bringing in the harvest of the hard work we all do here every week by converting to own produced music, and (for me very important) learning (easy versions) of songs to be able to play them anytime when a guitar is in the room - and that shall be a part of thinking on the next song selection maybe. So - as we had Animals - The House of the Rising Sun last week JUST GREAT, yay!!!! Everyone who has not finished his cover - just post whenever ready in the running week (yes, this one) so we all will recognise it.

I'm also looking at a new guitar any ideas? 24 Frets, SSH If possible, Trem/Hard Tail. I was looking at a AZ2402 as that seems to cover everything and sell my current guitar.

Me tuning up three guitars to play in a week of the championship when @ cacahuate51 is hosting. JK - great selection of songs this week. Super fun song to play, gotta nail that little bridge part to improve. This was a surprising score for first site read and quite frankly sloppy play. Finally, just when I was going request to be moved down to intermediate lead, I score up there with @ Rodman and @ Mikson and realize that I just need to practice some more during the week. More scores later this week, holidays are done, work schedule is back to normal, getting back to my regularly scheduled life. Go Forth and Rock!

I made sure to suggest a cdlc in the beginner class, "no love" with correct finger placements on all of the chords. Not all cdlcs have the right fingerings cause it takes more time, so just be careful / aware of that posibility. Palms (the creator of this tab) is one of the few who does take the time so i reccomend any of his work. Pause the screen with the Escape button when needed/ you arent sure how to fret the chord. You can move to the next and previous NOTE/ CHORD by pressing the arrow keys Left and right (this only happens in the main menu not in riff repeater cause arrow keys do other things there like @drand mentioned ) Kinda messy.. but i tried XD If i were you i would just focus on learning campfire chords which are C,A,G,E and D (Essential imo for any guitarist). Those shapes are callled that way because when played in Estandard tuning ( which is one of the most common /played /default tunings) They play the Major chord of that note. So C shape plays a C major in the default position in E standard. These chords and power chords (a shorter/condensed version of the E shape) is what makes up most "popular" music/ and will be able to be used in all/any Standard tuning songs ( Eb Standard D Standard Dbstandard C Standard blabla) For any Drop D or lower songs (like this one) you will mostly just use the C, A, E, D shapes and the power chords are simplified to one finger ( you can use any of your 4 fingers to bar the 3 strings-> creates a powerchord) The 5 shapes will be helpfull if you ever want to learn the CAGED method (which is just one way to visualize/memorize the fretboard theres plenty of videos on yt). I don't really want to "knowledge" dump cause that's not the best way to learn, just take it slowly, practice and revise alot. Also, i think its pretty normal to get a bit lost in names with different tunnings so don't stress too much about it. That's why i think shapes might be easier than names to not overthink, but everyone has their own method of learning. And I do know the way I learnt is pretty flawed, so take my "advice" with a pinch of salt. I will try to find easier songs for begginer for next time. Usually the ones that are beginner level have improper fingerings / are made by new creators or too simple/ empty. If anyone does find any suitable make sure to submit it here: https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbwy6vF3XYDZ_s1WeqiHTgBcVgbF8cr2AUQjKH3aRSZYuh32Erc-IstP5Gos-1i_evkm/exec whole point is to make this enjoyable for everyone / have more people playing constantly 😛

Updates So beautiful when things go symmetric More work needed

Happy Monday everyone! This is not my week, everything is hard

Hope everyone enjoys the "Return to Dust" chart selected for this week. Please be sure to let me know if you happen to spot any need for corrections...I'm 100% always open to constructive feedback. It's a fun one, but probably at the max reach of beginner skills IMO. Best of luck to all you Champions!

Well first song in, S6 was a great song, never ever heard it before, this is why I love the championship because I hear songs I've not heard of before.

First Post - Is this Correct

This was the easiest I found apart from the beginner set, I don't know why even though it was an 8, I think the string skips in the Advanced and intermediate songs are a bit much for my ability. I was at a gig where FFAF was the warm up band for Iron Maiden here in the UK in Sheffield and for some reason before each this song was about "Orchs"? I'm guessing that a world of warcraft/warhammer thing (I'm going back nearly 2 decades here).

I’ll move up to intermediate if you do @ Vodka , I’m always looking for your score as the one to beat because I think we are around the same level most of the time 🙂
