Playthrough of the new versions, weird how lead is easier than rhythm, can it be because iron maiden has 3 guitarists and it took the 2nd 'lead' guitarists parts and merged with the rhythm part? dunno just speculating

Better

And better

Really like this song, one of my favorite Scorpions songs.

I was kinda hoping you would stay on the harder version. I think the difference in difficulty is mostly the lack of the middle arpeggio part in the lead. The riffs are mostly the same and the solos are comparable imo.

Haven't had too much of a chance to play lately.. Here is what I got..

Same percentage for last try of bass here but a much longer streak so that's something I guess.

Lead 

Summertime Blues - Rhythm

cant get the bends right 

Hi All

Really liked the Maiden song.  Have not played that one before.

Arpeggios are Fun.  But so damn hard.

@ diceslinger How do you play arpeggios that start with the intro? With a modified Dm chord and two notes on the 1st and 3rd frets of the A string. I have a way of playing this without taking my whole hand off the fretboard, just moving the index fingers (1) and little finger (4). But I get better accuracy when I play it like a single note without catching a chord, although I know this is not the correct way 😉

another week with lack of time,,,,

class songs:

i got main pattern all right.... solo part is out of my reach,,,,

this song is like they did not hear about metronomes....

Is it only me os tempo is changing more often that anywhere else? and also it sounds for me like every membr of the band plays separately... nothing match he for me 😉

 

other classes songs not worth a print screen ;)...

Iron Maiden - Seventh Son (Rhythm) - 87%... one pass only... too long...

Scorpions (Bass) - 97.5

Papa Roche (Bass) - 99

That is about where I am.  I play it more like single notes.  I want to just bar the first fret, but there is that open D note, so you can't really do that.  I am anchoring my second finger on the second fret of the orange string, and the others move to get the notes.  I feel like most of my mistakes are picking rather than fingering.  I wonder if fingerpicking would be better for this one.

 

Really great score there, I don't know if I'm going to catch it!

Every time I play this i get stressed towards the second half and start making stupid misses.  I cant figure out why.

But still a good improvement.

I'm still in a daze from playing through Dopesmoker last night...

And made some improvements on Sweet Leaf:

Had to play the rhythm part.

 

bass +

 

 

 

oh yes, such a cool song
