Elon musk moment, nice bass on here.

Had to try guitar too, mad fun.

Unfixed slide in from bellow notes make this a bit of a pain

Not too bad on guitar though.

This is way too fast for me

Hi everyone! I'm the one who charted Tally-Ho, and unfortunately it's an older chart of mine with some very minor mistakes. Nothing catastrophic, just some annoying slides really. I had already made an update for myself, but haven't uploaded it which I'm now regretting since it's in the championship this week! 

Although the update shouldn't change scores drastically, because people have already posted their scores, I'm not going to release the update until next week. However, if you've already submitted a score and would like to play the updated version, I'm happy to send it to you if you message me. 

Hope you're enjoying anyway! It's such a fun song 🙂

This silverchair lead feels pretty difficult to me, not sure if anyone else agrees.

Absolutely. A much trickier song than my ears ever picked up back in the day lol

Thanks for stopping by! I've really enjoyed challenging myself with your PPC bass charts...in fact I'm pretty sure I discovered the band because of you 🙂

I'm happy to hear you're enjoying the PPC charts! Their stuff is definitely a lot of fun on bass. I never get tired of playing it. I have a couple new PPC charts in the works, and with the new singles coming out next month, I hope to add those to the list as well 🙂

OK, I gotta know how you guys are tackling that arpeggio or whatever it is like 40% through the silverchair track. I'm trying to basically finger pick it but at full speed I cannot keep up. Any suggestions/tips? 

ok, not imposible. Starting this week

What exactly do you mean? Most of this song is chords, the arppegio only appears for a moment.

Detection issues with the chords there.

 

yoyo my beginner lead submission before i forget again

5.5 imo

 

 

3.5 - half a point for the bends.

7.5, definitely harder than the gizzard song, which I'd give 6 on both parts.

Well, I just half-assed picking it. My advice to you would be to do what I did, and just don't worry about it. If you want a good score, focus on the chord changes, since that's most of the song and it doesn't take that long to learn. After the chord changes you can rr the riff(s). That should get your score into the 90s.

OR you can spend a whole week working on that one part, still not getting it 100% right and increasing your score by maybe 2%.
