Congrats to all winners. Well done!

 

 

 

This week's songs are:

 

Beginner Choice:

The Beatles - Yellow Submarine (Eb Standard)

Let's start big. Yellow Submarine is "the" The Beatles song. Known by every kid (at least when I was a kid :lol: ), surprsingly the biggest song by the band from Liverpool is sung by Ringo Starr. Paul McCartney steals the show with fun bass line, though guitars do not like excitement with chord selection.

(Beginner Lead, Beginner Rhythm, Intermediate Bass)

(There is available E Standard version - I will accept scores from both, still on guitar it's more difficult)

 

Intermediate Choice:

Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall, part II

Talking about band's biggest hits. You may not know The Wall album, heck, you may not know who Pink Floyd is, but you know Another Brick in the Wall.

We are playing @PC Plums's version as it's well done. It will challenge Intermediate guitarists, but I think that it is in your reach.

(Intermediate Lead, Beginner Bass)

 

Advanced Choice:

The Brew - Mute

The Beatles. Pink Floyd. The Brew? Who are they? Fear not, bah, rejoice! Mute might be the hidden gem of this week selections. Strong song that will satisfy every guitarist. And it has quite nice bass too.

(Advanced Lead, Intermediate Bass)

 

MasterClass Choice:

Rainbow - A Light In The Black

Gimme some Rainbow! Such a nice song, with fun riff, hard solo and nice groove. It's great to listen to and much better to play ^_^

(MC Lead, MC Rhythm, Advanced Bass)

 

Jaco Pastorius - Port of Entry

It's really more of God of Bass :lol: We long waited for Jaco Pastorius to debut on Championship and when he does, it's a big one. I hope that you won't hate me when this week will end :ph34r:

(MC Bass)

 

God of Guitar Choice:

John 5 - The Black Widow Of La Porte

When you think about Rob Zombie's guitarist, you don't think about ultimate guitar challenge but you get one. Black Widow of La Porte will be familiar to Guitar Hero players - it's even more difficult in real life. Some good metal to sum up week 200.

(God of Guitar)

Advanced:          Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name  (7) as played at week 64

Yellow Submarine is a terrible song. Sorry Beatles fans. 

What seems to be wrong with it in your opinion? - I wish I would get more feedback here at CustomsForge it would help, to let me know what needs to be repaired on the CDLC's I chart. No disrespect intended RSjeffH, You are very welcome to chart your own version of Yellow Submarine, I tried to get as close as I could to chart a decent version with my poor Custom Charting skills. Looks like it has been charted decent enough to be selected for RS Championship. Later, avdocatwork

 

​Edit: Looks like I misinterpreted the post by RSjeffH, sorry buddy. I suck at social media and a lot of times say the wrong things. Later, avdocatwork

 

 

Okay, maybe I needed to be more clear I was not speaking about the CDLC. I don't have much history with Customsforge and honestly I think that the work is amazing. I guess I can understand your reaction given the countless hours that must go into creating a CDLC. I am definitely NOT a Beatles fan so for me this song is terrible not the Chart. I have resorted to playing it without sound, Ringo like Keith Richards should not sing!!!

 

As far as the CDLC goes, I can't seem to use the Riff repeater or change the speed.

 

Please keep up the great work that you are doing.

For mac users you have to remove the DD in the RStoolkit on the pink floyd song otherwise you get the messed up chords

Having a bad lumbago and cant really sit down normally, so i had to give standing up and playing a try.

It was not as bad i i thought i would be.

Welcome @@telmovaz!

@ , @@telmovaz - welcome! Great you are here.

 

For all new players: please do not update your initial post with better scores, but create a new post for new scores, otherwise they will get overlooked!

Updated Mute score:

 

Mute (never heard this one before, very fun)

 

Streak=188  %=95.25

Better score, lower % and lower streak

Streak=163  %=94.79

http://steamcommunit...479555303724764

Most of the song sound good now, but the bends in the solo is way out of my skill.

and the beginner song this weak is harder for me. I still need lots of chord practice.

My congratulations with 200th! =)

 

Chords on chords after chords... I'm sorry, no =)

Thanks for the kind words RSjeffH, I many times misinterpret posts, that's why I seldom post outside The Classic Rock Coalition and my CDLC's download pages. Hopefully I will get better at social media. Thanks, again - avdocatwork

Here's my first crack at this one. I'm not quite sure how the bends are charted in the solo. Doesn't quite look like it sounds. Anyhoo...

 

My congratulations with 200th! =)

 

Chords on chords after chords... I'm sorry, no =)

Did I forgot about @@Gamut's birthday!? Could not be :o

Happy belated birthday @@Gamut!

Coming back from vacation and what awaits me? The 200th week of the championship! Congrats everyone for this sucessfull series.

 

First results, the phrase "Wrong! Do it again!" at the end of the solo is my motto with this song:

And my favorite Maiden song, I had to absoluty try this one. It is not too hard but much too fast for me. I get knots into my fingers. The rest of the week will bring improvement, eventually.
