But i'm supposed to only mute with left hand right?

Let it sound for a very very short time, and then slightly remove tension from chord so it gets muted.

Thats how you play reggae and ska right?

 

I'm quiet used to right hand muting with acoustic guitar & finger picking... But that's not related at all i guess :o

 

And i think (not sure tho) i did it only with down strokes, gonna try up/down then thx Motive ^_^

I had to stop when I noticed a small bubble(?) showing up on the lower part of my index finger, where it slides across the frets all the time^^

@@Dennis430 It's always great to see your scores. Really nice.

I didn't any ratings for the songs, here they are

 

Offspring - lead 5, rhm 5 and bass 5

Ska-P - lead 5, rhm 5, bass 6

Fishbone - rhm 8, bass 8

Metallica - lead 10, rhm 7, bass haven't played

So you can just start in whatever class you want?

 

Here's my sightread of The Offspring:

Maybe I work on that singles run and come back. It's okay to update your score, right?

Is double posting frowned upon here? Oh well.

 

I played that Metallica song. I think it's literally been ten years since I heard it last, but that didn't stop me. Did it on Rhythm because I'm a wussy drummer who can't solo.

Also, here's a better second go on Offspring.

Welcome to the competition @@Gamut. 

 

 

Your are allowed to update your score as much as you want and pick the class you want..  In the 38 weeks i have been in this competition i have yet to see anyone complain about double posting. (and i do it myself)

FInally pass bass path Ska-P (ver. by @frippchen) with 100%. Not best run, so as was a lot restart SC, and when pass hard place, start nervous, so played with bad timing :) 

There:

Yet nobody else wanted practice with my cdlc Drill rhythm?  :D

Lol...

still @ 89, i feel there is no more one eyed pizza in me :)

Clearly accepting defeat

 

Looin forward 2 the new songs

I tried one of them. I think my steam name is robinagren.

I don`t know, how you guys got good score with this fucking a song by Offsping, after week practice no any improve score. Barely passed score attack after 10 attempts.

So my final rate for songs: 

lead Ska-P 4

bass Ska-P 6

lead Offspring 7

bass Offspring 6

Yeah - really hard, not in terms of structure or speed, but in skill playing really each note clean and tight...

 

You could blame it on poor recognition, but for me that is not the case:

All the right sounding parts are scored propperly, as soon as it gets a little sloppy there are the misses.

 

Cant improve no more atm

 

Diff int lead 7,5

So it looks like Offspring - Pretty Fly bass line will be rated 6. Then I should understand that @@Kaijin, @@NoonyDeloony and @@then3verend, all want to be part of MC class next week. No problem (PM me if you want to talk about that).

I'm late in posting my difficulty thoughts on bass:

 

Creeping Death - Metallica: Beg Bass
Probably the easiest of the songs this week in bass terms, but I wouldn't peg it as "beginner" friendly.  Fast and not entirely static frethand, plus a few easy techniques.
Difficulty:  5

 

Como Me Pongo - Ska-P: Int Bass

Great selection for the championship -- had never heard it before and had loads of fun working on it all week!
Fairly rapid, jumps all over the place with fast and precise frethand shifting required.  Distributes notes to 3 strings, with some fun slides thrown in.  In @'s version (which is definitely more accurate), there is a noticeable amount of improvisation in the recording that you have to keep up with instead of just repeating the same theme verbatim.  That makes his version more fun but a bit more difficult also.
Difficulty:  7 (frippchen's version) or 6 (other one)

 

Pretty Fly for a White Guy - Offspring: Adv Bass
Similar challenges (and difficulty) to Como Me Pongo -- pretty quick, good amount of fast shifting required, skips around the strings.  To me, equal in difficulty to the Ska-P song, or maybe a shade tougher.
Difficulty:  7

 

Jack-Ass Brigade - Fishbone: MC Bass

Take this with a grain of salt since I only played the song once (not my cup of tea).  From that single playthrough, it felt tougher than the Int or Adv songs this week, but not so hard as the past few MC songs.  I'd peg it at tough Advanced to easy MC, but I wouldn't put my stock into that opinion...
Difficulty: 8-9 (maybe)

I give up on MC rhythm, hate the lack of consistency in note recognition, drives me nuts...but heres a MM

hope that it's not too late for a little improvement

http://s14.directupload.net/images/141101/spwvcoht.jpg

sorry Kaijin, same accuracy but higher streak :P

Good songs this week, I though Como Me Pongo was a little more difficult that previous beginner songs, but got better after a few playthroughs. It seems easy because it's only a few chords, but it's fast and they switch a lot. Trying to play it as charted seemed even harder for me so I'd go back and forth between high and low E string chords. Interesting though. Couldn't get a great score at it.

I liked Pretty Fly, but that's a solid intermediate song and I kept getting downranked on sections. Will keep practicing at that song though.
