http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=330776330Bit more improvement. Fixed my intonation on my Jazz Bass and it's sounding much better, no longer getting Rocksmith informing me my volume is too low either when the gain is full :)  ... no video as yet, still too clumsy on this one  :blush:  

new day, new luck, new score :)

 

when I played the song 100 times, I have my 100%

Wow @@Smile man you still play the crap out of these songs lol almost 100 plays holy crap man. Now that's dedication to a song. 

@@Joey My wife is also very enthusiastic to hear always the same song .

I have to play with headphones now :)

but still i like the song

415 plays on monster truck sweet mountain is my record for most plays :) One of the few I've mastered :) Nice one @@Smile!

 

 

Another Zebra score http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=330784268

 

I also have a video but have been informed I'm not allowed to upload it until after Supernatural :(

This video demonstrates Rocksmiths sympathy for my playing... I wish it wouldn't do that! So many F'cups :)

getting better and better :)

upload complete Zebra lead

Not my best run but a very good one (98,72%)

I would add a facecam if I got better hardware :(

Your unbest is very impressive @ , I look forward to your best play-through with a facecam :) my pal thinks I am sad for recording videos, but she doesn't understand the competition side of my practice and that it's mainly for improvement reference and confidence... Plus she's already talented and has played in bands and stuff for years... Plus putting faces to names is nice, makes me feel like we're sharing an epic journey :)

I agree almost 100% Noony ...   I got camera yips really bad even when it was turned off ;)   ..   the archiving process helps a great deal with confidence and skill  ..  I'm almost to the point where I would consider playing in front of strangers ..  but be thankful I don't film above the neck ..  I was graced with many decent attributes   ..  but some m'fer took my place in the looks line at least twice, and my one mirror isn't the kiss ass one of legend :)

Even the weirdest looking veg and the worst cuts of meat make a good stew @@Kasnitch, sharing all your ingredients is what maketh the experience :)... That my friends, is an analogy from my brain :)

This post goes to all of you who had the amazing gesture of giving me a real bass.

 

You all should have seen my face when the mail delivery lady rang on my doorbell at 9:30am with that huge box from thomann, which I know very well, since I order all my gear from them, although it has been a while since I ordered anything, so I was totally confused.

So, I opened the package, and...

O. M. G., a real bass....

 

I didn't knew what was going on, I only knew I was SO F******* HAPPY, I looked like my son opening his presents on his birthday or X-mas.

 

After calming down, I went to my room, grabbed the spare guitar stand that I have and...

I just sat in my room looking at it, until my brain unfroze and I thought, "Holy Crap, I can play with a real bass" :lol:

 

I had to try my first song on a real bass with a song that I simply love and I'm currently working on it, it's not been posted yet cause I still need to make some changes in the lead and rhythm arrangements, but the bass is pretty much done, so I plugged the bass, launched RS, selected the bass path, went to learn a song, and this is what happened...

A HUGE THANKS to all that made this possible, I usually know what to say, but this is one of those rare moments that I don't have words to describe how happy I am.

Intermediate Lead - 95.97%, 170 streak

96% is an illusion. Is the Castle of Illusion. But I'm ain't Mickey Mouse :angry: :(

 

@@Kaijin Lovely bass :)

@@Kaijin your groovey moves more than emulate your joy :) . Enjoy your new bass and kudos to those who could combine their efforts to bring you said joy :) There's some reet kindly people here... Not me though, I'm a tight wad :)

Thanks @, @@Mortalo, @@Rodman and @@NoonyDeloony.

 

I haven't had time yet to play much, but tonight will be a bass night for sure, I think my guitar is gonna have a day off for the 1st time in many months :D

@@Kaijin nice to see that you have much fun with your new bass :)

@@Kaijin very nice to see you so happy with your new bass. And you are working on the Jack, good you said this because this evening I wanted to make this custom, but now I don't need. I have some good tabs of this song, maybe if you need I can help there.

@@Kaijin we spoke about this already but just wanted to say I'm happy you are happy with the new Bass. Great to see such a great community come together to help make someone so happy. Enjoy your gift man.
