Feel I got graded pretty hard on this one, it did not like my slides in the chord parts.  I will take a closer look in RR.  Overall seems pretty easy maybe an advanced song vs masterclass?  Not sure....

Thank you all!!!!

Really feels good to read all that warm words. Thx!
And it feels so good to have a guitar in hand for a few minutes.

 

 

 

you also should check out the very fun to play cover of that song by the Acid Drinkers we had here long time ago

 

 

 

almost unknown are those guys over here... i dug a bit into that band last year working on and listening on covers of Lake of Fire. They´ve been a great influence to Kurt Cobain and that´s a cool song.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

what a great and challenging bassline

Thx @ aNDESmASAMUNE  great songs!

My Dad died all of a sudden last week. Saddest days of my life. I´ll try to give the songs a shot what will serve as some sort of distraction hopefully, and i´ll be around, but surely less in the next weeks and i won´t be on top of my performance orgawise eventually.

Rod.

So Sorry for your loss rod. condolences to you and all your family.

First scores for this week!!

Improvements:

 

 

Not a great run, but, got through it.

these were so tough

Late start this week. Lead first.

Quite a funny song, I wouldn't have guessed it was from 2024. As for difficulty, I think this is 3.

Ahh an old classic that I haven't heard in a long time and never played. Nice chart, but these bends are weird to play.

I didn't know this band but it's pretty cool and I like the solo here.

I've never been a fan of Santana's style, but overall this is ok to play and relatively easy for a masterclass.

 

Rhythm

Most of the chart is repeatable and easy, but some chords can be tricky. 7.5 is ok.

mc, yes definitely affordable 😄

 

 

 

first attempt at Jingo vs third attempt at Backwater.
