HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!!!

Realised I needed my 24 fret guitar for the advanced lead, but couldn't be bothered to swap guitars and re-tune the other guitar. So tested this instead.

http://u.meelo.org/.rocksmith/week295/lead/m01.png

think the first missed note was that 14th fret note after tapping. Sigh :) Surely the lead is harder than rhythm. Difficulties say 5 for lead and 6 for rhythm.

Boring...

 

 

I like this song

 

Played it before... not sure where I missed one note

 

This is much harder than 6. Got cramps in left hand :)

 

WTF...

That stupid slide to 17th fret and back to 5.

Well this one was a hoot and a half! Looked incredibly hard first, but then played it at 88 % speed and realised it's just fast.

Heh. identical accuracy percentage. Missed a single note in both songs :lol:

 

edit: had to capture at least one missing note.

This is much harder than 6. Got cramps in left hand :)

Make sure you stretch your fingers before playing. Especially when the bass line has lots of first and third or first and fourth fret notes.

I remember how hard it was for me to play Billie Jean a year ago... couldn't keep up for more than a minute or two. And then half a year later I just played it randomly and got 100%

My first post here, practiced this some before playing in score attack.  

 

Somebody forgot to add my lead score last week http://customsforge.com/index.php/topic/53152-rocksmith-2014-championship-week-294/?do=findComment&comment=314027

Probably me, as it would have pushed me from third place to fourth :ph34r:

 

Fixed!

Finally picked up the advanced lead.

Psst. How cheat would it be to activate an octave pedal at the end to move the 20-23 frets to 8-11 :rolleyes: I bought Digitech's Whammy DT pedal today :lol: I am totally going to test that once it arrives.

2nd attempt after miserably failing 1st... too hard!

Hi guys!

 

https://slack-files.com/TEV06SA1G-FKMU65D1T-c6e86b8944

I have not had any time to play this week.  But here are my scores from testing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some bass work.

Big improvement on bass advanced. Not too hard if I keep my left hand relaxed

 

This definitely needs RR

Can't be bothered to learn the solo

 

My song... I don't think it's 4! 5-6 at least

 

I thought I had done this.

I have to admit, my Boss Turbo Distortion DS-2 pedal gives a decent enough distortion for this song.

Here is a soundclip for anyone who's interested. First two are played with DS2 pedal and the third one is the heaviest sound I can get from my Marshall DSL20 amp.
