Yo, just fyi:

STEAM SUMMER SALE

Putting the Estring in -10 works

 

thanks, i'm gonna try to do that

@@supername My pickups too active, with power supply 18V, it nothing helped me.

i used a friend bass yesterday (with active pickups) and yes, didn't work. gonna try to pin it at -10 as @@queengeedorah wrote.

STEAM SUMMER SALE

There was an extra sale on Rocksmith a few days back so it went down to 40% off. There probably will be an encore in a few days at the end of the sale, so I'd recommend waiting for that.

 

In other news, I should finally get around to submitting a score today. I tried the MC song once already, and I can say pretty confidently that I won't be winning this week. These types of basslines don't play to my strengths at all, though I guess that's cool as it means I have more to learn from this one than most 8 ratings.

I don't super love the songs this week, not my style, so not sure if I'll play them again. Just incase I don't or run out of time here's the scores!

-10 is perfect, this was the only run for today on this song, cause i'm growing tired of it, so i'll try to do better tomorrow :)

I dont understand how I love to play and am seriously good at the jazz/bluesy basslines...yet dislike/suck at playing the leads...but it is real...

http://s22.postimg.org/sn3ecaw9t/2015_06_17_00001.jpg

That chord part is tricky as it is with constant on-/offbeat changes but 

I cant get those stupid chord slides to register...

I really hate that part in a way that i definitely want to nail it.

Sweet Home Chicago Lead

Funny that the solo fiddling stuff in that song is the easy part ;D

No problems there, just needs a little fine tuning.

 

cheers!

good evening!!!

My attempts at things so far:

 

Beg: Missed a slide, I think.

Int:

Adv: Got surprised by the "widdley" part

http://i.imgur.com/jTKQu05.jpg

 

MC: I (still) suck at things that change strings and fret hand position a lot. I think the small slides kind of throw me off as well.

This might be it for this one for me. Still not a fan of downtuning this far. My bass actually handles it well, I just do not love the loose strings and semi-random misses. A lot of the misses are from my sloppy mechanics I am sure.

sorry for lack of effort this week. real life has gotten in the way of me and my rocksmith :angry:

 

so rock on all and i'll catch up next round.

Happy Birthday @@Nacholede
