Back in the leadhttp://s17.postimg.org/rswfdl99b/2015_01_21_00004.jpg

Beginner Bass - 100%, 611 streak, 1,210,463 score

That was solid beginner bass song.

 

Advanced Bass - 99.13%, 441 streak

I did well on tough part, some random misses on E string. I like that there is so much space between strings. It makes alternate picking so easy :rolleyes: I really like this ReLoad basses.

@@MilkmanDan I was never into Load, ReLoad hooked me in, since, like, 2nd listening. And what Metallica record from 2003? Lets remember that year with Metric's debut release album (not 1st recorded, lol). At least one of my fav bands did something good back in that year :lol:

Noony you are getting too good ..    I think you should start playing guitar and really challenge your mettle

I used to play guitar but after 20+ years I never improved and sold my Les Paul copy to a blind guy a few years ago. I did get a guitar for Christmas, it was really bad quality so I sent it back. I will get a new guitar one day but that'll have to be when I get my old job back... Which doesn't seem likely as it seems my old boss thinks maternity leave was my resignation :angry:

I'm glad that I still have the my first electric guitar, from before I ended up being a bass convert.  ...BUT, that being said, I am 100% a bass person now; I personally don't get even the barest fraction of enjoyment out of playing the guitar that I do the bass.

 

There's always some segment of the stringed-instrument population that thinks that bass is just for people who don't have the talent to hack it at guitar (NOT that Kasnitch or anyone else here is/was suggesting that, but I see that opinion expressed relatively frequently).  I say F that, I play bass because I like bass.  Learning guitar in addition would be a "challenge", but getting as good as I can on the bass is also a "challenge", and one that I find more worthy AND entertaining personally.  Trying a song on lead or rhythm guitar can be a fun diversion sometimes, but I'm happy and comfortable with a bass in my hands 99.9% of the time.

 

I really respect the skills of great guitar players, AND great bass players, AND great players of any instrument.  AND people who are great at multiple instruments or song paths (take @@then3verend for example, ripping up the leaderboard here in lead and bass, or @, high up in all 3 paths).  That's awesome -- very worthy of admiration (and a bit of jealousy too!).  But still, it's all about what we enjoy and click with the most.  If that's guitar, sweet.  Bass, groovy.  Both, awesome.  Put on the best Jamaican accent and say "it's all good, all the time, mon".  :)

Totally agree with you @@MilkmanDan. I have a lot of musician friends who are very snobbish about the bass, even the bassists seem to hate the instrument (I can only imagine they're frustrated drummers). I've always been a frustrated bassist, it was easier to acquire a guitar back in the day though and I was never satisfied playing the guitar either. I love my instrument with all my soul but I 'd like to try the guitar again out of morbid curiosity, that and the fact there are a few songs that I could play and sing at the same time... Something which I find impossible with the bass. It's like rubbing your tummy and patting your head... Well for me it is, I ain't no Suzi Quatro! I never tried guitar on rocksmith so I'd like to see what would happen if I did. I'd always be a bassist though :)

Fkin bastard - are there no legal rights ih the UK that you have to get your job back after maternity leave????

Yes there are but it's a small town and everyone knows each other. If I tried to go through the court route I'd likely ruin my chances of getting a job anywhere else. It doesn't help really when your employer has no qualms about talking shit about her staff even without the threat of legal action. Work is scarce in the pub industry around here and I can do without a reputation as a trouble maker :)
