I gotta get some opinions from y'all on these song ratings.  I've only been doing this for a few months now, and I haven't really been playing Lead parts at all.  I'm trying it out this week since there's no Beginner Rhythm.  Is the scale run in the middle of She Wolf really considered Easy Lead stuff?  I've been in riff repeater for like three nights straight trying to get that one section down and I'm all over the place.  I can't get above 50% speed without losing it. 

But, this took me like 6 plays of the song start to finish tonight - it's just a bunch of power chords:

 

🤷‍♂️ I dunno!  Seems like everyone is having a blast with the bass songs this week, maybe I should shop for a bass instead 😆

That section is on the hard side for Beg for sure. Do not get disappointed!! Your efforts are paying, you are getting better quickly. I think you will like next week choice. Let me know.

Rock your ass off!!!
Rod.

@Orkkongen No worries, I'm over it. Though it would be good to have some clarity on the deadline. I only had time for one go this week:

 

Ended up with less time than I had hoped today so let's just pretend this screenshot is from today and I had no intention at all of improving before submitting :7

One hour warning!!!!

Had fun with this song this week, still don't feel very clean on it.  I may switch to jazz III picks for a while to work on my precision.

 

90+ Lead

Been having very little time with the guitar lately.  But i managed to find some before the week closed.  So here is everything.

 

ran through this one a few time

Oh man, you are getting better and better - absolute beauty. Congratualtions. How does it play and sound????

 

If i ever need building advice, i´ll make sure to hide from the fb cops and send smoke signals.

 

Rock and Build!

Thanks @Rodman

I'm still woodshedding on it.  Both acoustically and amplified, it is intolerant of fingering sloppiness.  You can hear every squeak and clank.  I'll report back after I shed a few lazy habits.  Maybe I'll experiment with some form of string mute too.

And thanks for reminding me.  I need to make an addendum to my pervious post... Take that FreeBird police!

@diceslinger Details 😉

I felt strange reading this, because it's already evening at my place 😀

 

Ok improve rhythm and that's probably enough.

Speaking of clarity about deadline. This week ended around half an hour before the magic 7pm CET. 😛 So no frog leaping this week, though I made a better version of Def Lepard than before, but not better than yours anyway. 😉
