Don't know if it's because i'm used to play it with Hammer on but i had some note recognition problems.

 

 

Gave Agalloch a try to

 

Well i finally got a couple of hours RS in tonight, a bit rusty but got a couple of reasonable scores....

 

not the best start on a song but i had a few goes and made a little improvement,

 

And if i could do the slide up and down bit i'd do even better.

 

As there was no Adv Rhythm i thought i'd have a little go at the Master class......the first go was not worth a screen shot.....

 

but the second go was more encouraging, i could do a lot better if i had the time.

 

 

Then onto the Bass just to keep @@Rodman on his toes.........

 

 

A lot of my run throughs were spent trying to get the tuning right.

It seems that i'm nearly there now......... but will i get that extra 00.07%   :rolleyes:

This is my high score on this one, there is a mistake on the leaderboard for me.

The best I got on this song... 

 

 

Had to give this a try... Not bad :D but it definitely doesn't belong in masterclass

Since it's my choice, I'd better post a score:

Still no proper cable, so I was going to learn it and and go for MM, but I've just had too many other songs to learn. 

Better post this spam as time is running out.

 

So, this week I discovered I have 4 fingers. This new found finger didn't help me so much though.

 

Must try harder!

Few more notes hit

 

@@ToxRS Since you played bass for the first time in the championship, I think I should ask which level you want to be included in, so we can add you in the ranking (veterans of the LB will correct me if I am wrong). I temporarily added you in ADV bass because it's the hardest level you tried.

Ash, Shining Light lead

Last improvements.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

still 'missing' silly open notes on the Bass......so annoying as this was 100% (or really really close to it)

Allergies suck. That is all.

 

Three weeks away from Rocksmith and I seem to have lost my ability to sight read:

Oh, well...

I finally have some time off from school to join in this week. I really like Tool and Justins bass playing (especially that wal tone) but im having major issues with playing this song on rocksmith. So this is as good as i will manage this week.

(Mc Bass 86)

@@Fandaru I hadn't actually thought about it, was just trying everything that looks kind of playable and spamming my scores.  Advanced bass would be kind of weird though, I don't even own a bass guitar :D

I was away all week and couldn't play Rocksmith nor the guitar.

As I just came back, I was able to try this week songs.

I hope I am still in time to submit, even though the scores aren't great...

New week will come in a moment, as Gamut couldn't make it.
