Rock On!

First with firsts.

 

 

 

 

Hmm, this needs work.

First time playing and hearing these songs

 

 

 

For "radio-kind" rock this actually has a pretty interesting bass line

 

 

Excellent performance lol. The three or so minutes were so easy and then I could barely keep up... slightly better than "just playing root notes" :)

Rhythm

 

 

Lead

 

 

I'm sorry bass players :D

Hate my neighbors.

Wiil see will I able to play it on 100%...

 

 

Deep shit:

 

 

 

Not much of an improvement from the 1st time I tried these songs... can only sightread so fast. Need some RR practice
 

 

 

 

Tried Advanced read too just for fun :)

Welcome @fjon! 

Since you had very good runs, I would add your name to the Masterclass level for bass. Have fun!

Overall it is ADV, ok. But solo is not doable. Hand position changes while at full speed, and full speed is like 15 notes per second. In SA I couldn't avoid at all two X.

 

@@Fandaru I am working on the Skip Row solo now, I don't think I will be able to get this up to speed in one week or maybe ever.  I did find for the transition instead of playing 9-10-11-9 on the high E to stay on the B and go to 14-15-16-14 instead (same notes).  The game marks it correct and it makes that transition to 16-17-19 almost possible when staying on the B string.
