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

Forgot about the bass solo oof.


Random strike during the clean bits.


I thought the last few songs were a bit rubbish, guess it's fine since they're just covers though.

GOB later I guess.

Hmm seems that my bass does not like tuning this low, it sounds awful even when i am hitting the right note, lots of twang and buzz

Better with pick

 

Better with pick

 

 

Couple of rhythm tracks

I find this hard for beginner , Could just be I haven't touched my guitar for a few weeks ?? Dare I say I like this track a lot

Maiden Flash of the blade what a fantastic track had to use RR on this though. Jeez the levels have gone up. lol

Need to work harder at these phew!!

Ah man, that´s sad to read. We want nobody to get discouraged! And no - organisation is surely not here to favor a certain clique. The posting time has not changed over 8 years... its always within hours, and it will not be set to a certain timepoint for practicability. There is no point in not posting scores that you did - cause spirit of the competition is to improve over the week and see players improve. 5 Years ago i personally had a classmate or opponent who would post his winning score once in a week 30mins before new weekstart - so with litterally no time to fight back ... that´s not in the spirit of our friendly contest really. I encourage everyone to post any achieved score and eventually improve.

I can assure you that everything is calculated correctly in the 10-week leaderboards. Please pm me the issue or post here and i will check on that specifficaly. It really would be a bad thing if your participations rate would drop for disagreements with the organisation.

Rock!

I never mentioned posting times. I have never waited until the last minute to post. Why is is that if someone says something, the few take it out of context?  What was said is that there were scores not posted correctly. I had mentioned this weeks and weeks earlier.  Shall I pull this up and re-post, to refresh memories?  Ya'll (select few) are out to make this more than this is, f@@& it!!! Really annoyed at all the bs. It ain't real till you have played live in concert!!!!

Read the thread. The last minute posting/cut-off time thing is a separate issue, unrelated to your gripes, but still relevant to other people here.

This is a 7 to me. A fun workout!

I assure you there are no cliques here and no one out to make anything more than it is. The organizers are just normal people with lives, families, jobs, etc. who are trying to keep this thing going as a way to challenge each other and improve our playing. If your post about incorrect scores was missed, I'm sure it was an honest oversight and not anything more. @ Rodman already asked you to PM him or post the issue here, so why not just do that instead of lashing out? 

Its all gone a bit EastEnders in ere. lol

not to bad for a first attempt for a complete and utter scrub noob lol

Repost from last week.

Nice song from good new album. Remember when we played Senjutsu here some time ago.

Ah One of my favorite Metallica songs. I love the intro part which then goes into the heavy part.

Yes I know it was honest. But when I questioned it no one was on it. Or even replied. I was thinking because I did not move up a level when I was asked, is why.  So I moved up. I wasn't ready to move up but did because my scores never improved from then on.  I'm tired of this bs, just gonna play. and enjoy all music as I did before!

Rhythm:

Good start

Then I went up and got a glass of water.  This is what happens when I pick up the E standard guitar instead of the drop D guitar 🤣

and bass
