Let's Rock!

 

Sorry for being a bit absent lately, i was working on a lot of charts and full albums!

Here's my only try to this song. Only because if i want to play it again, i will do it in an acoustic guitar. In an electric guitar, is uncomfortable as hell

I really didnt enjoy this weeks' Masterclass song so I wasn't motivated to play it much. Then again I have been struggling with depression and anxiety a bit lately too, so...

 

Anyway, here's my score:

 

90.73% - Major Swing (Bass)

@@LarryPlane, Welcome. Since you posted 100% on the beginner bass, I set you up at Intermediate Bass.

 

Thank you for the welcome 

Just one question... What does being set up at intermediate bass mean?

Next week i should play at that level?

Felt as though I struggled here to get the 100%

Play both beginner and intermediate next week and we'll see where you are at. If intermediate feels like way too hard of an obstacle, we'll place you to beginner.

Mkay, a 4 chord song and I can't do any of the four chords.

 

Massive up!

 

nooooooo was doing testing for next weeks songs, tripped up on wires and guitar took a tumble...

 

 

and have another engineer round for my internet soon so probs gonna be offline for a few hours testing this ongoing internet fault, just for extra inconvenience.

gonna be spending that time fixing another guitar into working order, hopefully new week start wont be disrupted but hang tight if its a little later than expected

some more scores....

can't get up to my best just yet

 

 

even had a play of the Django song, yes it still sounds terrible but i made it to the end

 

 

and another AM personal best

 

 

rhy +

 

 

lots better

 

 

 

@shaggy_malagy    Yikes!

I was desperate to get the 99% on KOL but just ran out of steam  :angry:
