-= Building a Guitar from Scratch with Absolutely No Woodworking Experience =-

Capo weeks are good for someone who has participated in the championship for a long time and by playing the same songs, might find out what progress he has made since then. For me, it's basically a normal week.

So...

This is the hardest beginner song I've ever seen here. More suitable for advanced or possible that I'm a noob 😅

 

It's hard to believe, but I played the song for the first time...

 

I'm scared of Billy Talent because I always have problems with their style. I'll try later.

Can attest to Homem do Leme Lead being hard for someone with less experience. Those chord changes look so easy, but hard to get right at 100% speed. 

Back from another day of practice. This time with a Score Attack version of the Homem do... lala. I think it's a bit difficult to get perfect attacks, butthe song as such is no problem.

The spirits of teens flow in my veins. 🙂 Though I played a wrong note in the beginning... Damn. And it's a tough song, my fingers get all used up.

The bonus bass part is a bit easier, but at least I get to use my pinky. 😛 I don't know if it's part of the competition, but better safe than sorry.

And finally I tried more of the intermediate song. It's okay... until that very fast ad difficult part. The play through was a bit better to day, but when I practice I can only get to around 85% speed (in the difficult part). This is still better than yesterday, but I think it's quite a long way from full speed.

 

 

Thought I would give this one a try after @Rodman's recommendation.   Seems much harder than Teen spirit and is way beyond my sight-reading skill, hopefully will have time later to run it again.

Starting to get it, but, just seems more like an intermediate song...not sure...

Was thinking the rhythm would resemble the lead part, I was wrong...

 

Shocked I got through that.  I need to play the chord forms and pick the notes within, was jumping all over the place.

Not sure I've gotten 100% before.  But this song was super easy for me so I guess the "1" rating is corrrect!

I knew what to expect. Typical Billy Talent chords, meh.

 

Classic

 

1st attempt  Good beginner song for lvl 01 Nice!!!

1st attempt Love Nirvana, just not this one sorry....

I'd say Nirvana is at least 4-5 if you play all the slides and muted notes correctly.

 

This one isn't easier than AJFA...

 

This Homem du leme is such a calming song to play

Just to turn around and give myself hand cramps with Nirvana lol

@Mikson @AllPlayers - 😄 .... hardest beginner song ever.... well i tried to level up to int on Rob Zombie - Black Sunshine and made it to 98.05 in 85 tries 6 years ago if i remember correctly, that one may be even a bit harder... but the song this week being int/adv, absolutely agreed, ... howecer that was our rating then, actually it was a straight 3 - so it´s da capoed as Chuck Norris beginner challenge. And always remember... when Chuck Norris is doing push ups he actually pushes the world down.... and so shall you!

Rock!
Chuck Norris does not do phone calls, he screams!

Finally, I managed to achieve 90% on beginner song so I'm very happy about it!

 

The rhythm part is not very difficult, because these arpeggios are parts of basic chords. Unfortunately there are no hand shape makes it difficult to read the chart.

 

Oh so slight improvement....

 

eee gad

All I have to say is Teen Spirit is an extremely difficult "beginner" song. How are these ratings made?

 

Needs a bunch of work.

 

@Banjoclan I think people who try out the songs rate them.  I am sure someone else will share the good details.
