Rock On!

For me, this cover is better than the original.

 

 

Most of Leo's covers are better than the original, because a lot of his covers are shitty pop songs.  :lol:

I am back! First of all, do not slow down Leo's version of take me to church down to 80 %. That sounds way too creepy!

 

Bass first

http://u.meelo.org/.rocksmith/week265/bass/i01.png

This is going to require some effort.

http://u.meelo.org/.rocksmith/week265/bass/m02.png

 

Gave this couple of extra attempts. First try was surprisingly high, 92 %.

http://u.meelo.org/.rocksmith/week265/rhythm/i04.png

This one demands a lot of extra attention

Couple little updates. The consistancey on Domesticated Animals  :lol: 

Gald @@meelo is back, but at the same time I fear I'm never gonna top Advance Bass, when that pesky boy is around :D 




 

OK, I can play this again the crunchy chords and solo will keep it interesting.

 

Yes, I'm using the pick on the A string and middle finger on the B string.

 

 

Switching to the @@MaZtoR hybrid picking did the trick!

 

to me this is harder than the master class lead and the lead track is even more tricky than this

 Enough different from the lead that it messed me up pretty good

 

Not a big fan of this song, personally I feel like it should be an advanced song instead of a masterclass. Will try it again soon but it irritates me because I know I can 100% this song but the guitar gods hate me and I'll randomly miss notes

 

Hey guys, back again. First attempt at Leo on bass: http://i64.tinypic.com/t5n7yc.png

Update:

Getting the hang of this.

http://u.meelo.org/.rocksmith/week265/rhythm/i06.png

 

Thanks to that Iron maiden song from two weeks ago, I'm efficient enough at muting the E, D, G and e strings, so I don't have to hybrid pick. I am failing at the "solo" parts though.

Tied with @@Toni-Wan Kenobi, but he has a better streak. I'll getcha ;)

I guess I'll enter for my own song:

Lead FC

 

Bass FC

 

Rhythm not quite an FC (it's possible, but won't be a fun grind with those fast slide sections)

 

This chart could use some updated FHPs, I'll probably fix those at some point in the future

Busy on other stuff this week, so here's another Wonderful Land 100% on bass

Wow... I missed the last note.

 

I don't know what happened here, I somehow got this crazy score.  Then the next run I failed out.

Im starting to agree that Domesticated Animals is a bit easy for MC.  For some reason it was a lot harder the first 2 times i tried it.  :rolleyes: 

 

I would say lead is 6-7 and rhythm 7-8

 

Tried playing Take me to church in Drop A tuning, but detection was horrible.  Don't know if my 12-60 strings are to thin or if my 20€ guitar is to crappy. or I'm just bad.

 

Guess ill try to play it in drop D loud as hell next time I'm alone in the house instead.

Finally found that last note ;)

 

Can't remember if I posted a Leo score...not that it is that great of score.

 

A bit better after a few runs

bass 1sts...

 

already nice scores, boys!!!

 

 

the 90ies

 

 

Beginner Bass: Taylor Swift @ 98.16%
