-= Building a Guitar from Scratch with Absolutely No Woodworking Experience =-

Well, making a quick return, mainly to face off against Stijnw2000 (Kappa)

 

Here's my attempt at the Lamb Of God song:

And then the Dream Theater song (6 String bass but can re-do in 4 string if unfair)

Sorry, but I much preferred the DT, although I was falling asleep by the end... :)

Missed one chord..I think

 

 

Just one little part to get down.

oh so slight improvement...

 

Might be the grip thing, not sure, can't really feel my grip in a couple fingers of my left hand.  Works fine on my guitar and seems to sound fine on the bass, not going sharp flat or buzzing.

*shrug*  More practice maybe just need continuing work on building strength in that hand overall.

 

Got some good bass practice in today.  Anyone else have a problem with the extra vibration from the bass riding up your frethand arm?  

 

 

 

 

No, not really.  Could you be holding on too tight/fretting too hard?

 

I say "not really", because I have noticed some basses vibrate more than others, but this is more a whole body vibration, rather than just arm, lol.

 

Can I post this again now?

QUeen is harder than I thought...

Going to see if I can break the 95 mark on lead this week.

And Before I forget here's the rhythm part.

--Wren

Thought this song might be just a smidge too fast for me. But after warming up on some Metallica, I gave it another shot. I feel like I improved my lower fret finger efficiency.. if that makes any sense. First couple of times I played this song, I couldn't make it through the first part without tiring out.. But I got lucky with some random fret grabbing on a couple of spots. Not sure I can do any better...

 

I'm FB and now I've got something to die for.

only that slayerish middlepart left to master...

Feeling your pain @@Rodman. i will take my .4% improvement though on a MC song. The slide itself is pretty rough along with a lot of fret movement mid song.

 

I  think the RS gods were lenient.

 

 

After I conquered the highest score for Toxicity on master I thought I should do some more friendly competition :)

I attack the Advanced and MC!!

 

 

Hiyahh!!

 

 

Rahhhhh!!!!

 

;)

:mellow:

 

Seem to be having some issues with chord recognition with this one.  I am thinking I my need to mess with the lag correction or maybe my timing is just off.

Tried setting the lag thing to 0, not sure if it helped...

 

If ever there was a tribute worth playing:

I must say this hurt playing through only twice. I have some serious work to do.

 

Damn job keeps me away for extended periods, but I will strive to come back when I can.
