whow @ cacahuate51 - great score there!!

 

 

 

rhy

 

 

 

I´d say lead and rhy both straight (7) - i don´t see a difficulty difference

 

 

 

as always there - even if miserably failing - the attempts are still a blast

I dont belong in this class but what a great riff.  I can't remember the last time i riff repeated something way over my head just because i loved it. I always just play for fun and and don't push myself too hard but this needed perfecting.  Good chart too, the cover players on youtube seem to move out of that staionary position more.

 

edit to say ebin was the last tune that grabbed me like that.

Wow almost 99% in sight reading in the GoG song, impressive result!
I wonder if @ Bottledpat12  will fight with this 😉

Yes, you're probably right. The atl lead path played as rhythm caused all scores to be added without taking into account the participant classes (screen).

So this is a future job for @ kayteck .

Now we have to fix it manually and the important thing is in what class @ gspot  competes in the rhythm path - you don't have a class assigned to rhythm, and you are a beginner in lead, should you also be a beginner in rhythm?
If so, @ gspot  wins the previous week in the beginner rhythm class, otherwise @ lowender wins.
@ aNDESmASAMUNE has to change it manually as this week's host.

OK, so I corrected it. Last week winner in Begginer Rhythm was @ gspot  ! 🏆

It's great that you both, @ gspot  and @ lowender  are starting this new journey! In my case I always considered myself a rhythm guitar player, and started bass in my 30's because of Rockmsith, and now I am intermediate in guitar and "master class" (in theory) in bass!! 😆

@EVERYONE 

1. The leather board was set up incorrectly for advance bass, so we will fix that as soon as possible. 

2. If I learn how to change everything in time, I will try to add a master class bass song. 

🎶🎸🪩　CHAMPIONSHIP NIGHT!!!! 🪩🎸🎶

YEEEAAAAHH!!! 🤟🤩🤟🤩🤟🤩🤟🤩🤟🤩

I am very glad everyone is enjoying playing the songs all around the globe!!! 🌍🌏🌎🎸🎶

And I am absolutely amazed that in just two days there are such high scores and fierce competition in Lead MC!!! 🤟🤯🤟🤯🤟🤯

OK, so I should join as well!! Here we go!!

----

static X - the only // I also would totally think this is a Korn song! And I like Korn anyway, so I like it. I think Korn uses C standard (or maybe C#) tunning as well. I have in my "save" list some other songs of this band, which I discovered in CF. 

 

The Hives - Bogus Operandi > I love The Hives, they always get me in a really good mood! I was very close to include one of the songs from this album in my 2023 selection, so I am glad I could add it this time... 

This is not extremely hard, but I need to do quite some trial and error so that Rocksmith likes my slides and bendings... 😅

Lead scores

With his result @ cacahuate51 closed the competition for me here on the first day 😆

Ah, this style is too difficult for me, and these acoustic tones make my playing sound bad...

Much better, I'll try to improve this a bit later.

Hey everyone! Haven't been able to play much the past few weeks, gonna try to get some scores in this week.

These are some fun tunes!

I corrected the error that made the Rhy and Bass Cornlake scores not hit the leaderboard - corrected now, all should be ok.

 

@ JokerTheAnarchist -phhhhhh ... what a score!!!! keep those coming !

 

Rod

nice beg

Psychedellic Porn Crumpets - Cornflake:

I like this song and this band, which I discovered here in CF. I read "Psychedellic" and the deal was done. 😆 (by the way, this wasn't played before, I always check in the SSL before suggesting songs...) I think it was during the pandemic, that I reached 94% in bass after trying very hard and felt like a milestone... When I suggested it a couple of months ago, I already sucked at it... 😅 So, this is after an intensive session of RR... I think the bass went a bit too well for me. I am not sure I can replicate that! 😄
