Let us know your opinions on the accuracy of the difficulty scores (1-10) for this weeks songs.

Scores time

I admit that I heard this for the first time on Spotify some time ago and I liked it, so I decided to create a full CDLC (the previous one only had Lead).

First time heard this, nice to play.

Guitar in this song is basically the Rhythm path.

@avastreg Did you make a version with better tones? Indeed, the overdrive tone is too deep.

This is my favorite song of this week. Really nice instrumental, chill out song. From what I checked, this is a cover of a Neil Young song. I think the chart is missing some notes sometimes, but I like to play it anyway.

 

Rhythm

Wish the bass had a proper tone instead of using the guitar one, otherwise it's got some nice fills.

Needs a bit less gain on the tone.


Here's one with "better" tones.

@avastreg yeah.... based on your lead score you are nothing but a damn masterclasser 😉  If you however feel you will be better off in adv, let me know though i doubt that heavily.

Great you are here! Rock!

 

A lot of participation, so great!!!!
 

Still - Leaderboards are empty 😉
That makes the competition a lot less beefy - so all you great helpers out there - go to our new and shiny scores entering applet

in the leaderboards, and put in the scores (remember - start from newest post and work up to older ones until you hit the scores that are already there!!)

 

If you also wanna join in help putting scores in - post here or send me a pm and i´ll set you up subito!

 

Rock,

Rod.

 

Oh, I have to admit, it's a difficult week in the bass classes.

Screen from testing, I will play again later.

It doesn't look that hard, I should get a better rating. OH well

Sent a request on drive just now.

Improvements

 

 

 

 

Got around to change tuning today.

Just tried the new score adding script.  It really makes if faster to add scores.  Great job.

Been away all week until today but if you think this was bad you should have heard it. Dreadful.

Beginner Lead

Inter Rhythm

Great song, wish the solo had its own section so I could have practiced it by itself though 😕

You pasted the same screen twice 😉

@jellisjenius when I saw your score, I thought it was impossible to achieve it, but I did it!

Masterclass

If anyone is interested, I'm going to stream me playing some guitar and bass, but today I'll have another stab at the full Blackening album again on rhythm.

Couldn't get many of this week's songs to work with my PC to Mac converter but these two were fun. I had to shrink my screen shots because I only have 76.65 kB left for uploads
