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

Show must go on. This words from Queen's classic fits perfectly to the start of new Rocksmith Championship week. As you all know, @@Joey, the long time RC Organizer, stepped down from his role last week. For long time he was here, to give us this wonderfull oportunity to participate in championship. But that's hard work. Still he was doing all he could, combining that with work and family. But time, time is running away fast and @@Joey realized that. He no longer could sacrifice his personal life, not to this degree. He withdraw, but didn't left. He still will be part of this community and will be always welcome to post. Not only his scores but also warm words. As we all remember he was here to cheer and praise, taking pride from seeing us become better and better every week. I'm proud to write this words and to thank @@Joey for us all.
@@Joey thank you :)

 

I'm a little nervous as you all are in most cases older than me, better guitarists and overall more experience people. Nonetheless I want to give  you as good Championship as ever, so here we go.

Congrats to all the winners. It was nice competition this week, with lots of close scores, even though selected songs were not favorites for most. Like always hats down for scoring 100% on Ring of Fire's Bass line to @@mmrrss and @@firekorn. Going for perfect score takes a lot of concentration. Never forget about cool video by @ Miwa - ChAngE. Well done!

Joey did a great work as the championship organizer! It's a shame that he is not longer the organizer but well, family is always first.

When i get home i'll give another try to The Rains Of Castamere :D 

Here's my score:

It's weird, I swear I posted yesterday but maybe I forgot to press the post button. Anyway here is my first attempt the lead beginner, I'll probably get it a lot better soon.

EDIT: The website is really breaking on me, I can't edit my post or post images.

I tried all the songs in both lead and rhythm today. 1 play on each. Here is my crappy results. (You don't need to add them all to the leaderboard)

I like the MC GoT song for this week:

 

Not a bad accuracy for a first runthrough, but I sound like crap.  I need some more practice to get in the groove properly with regards to the rhythm -- at this point I'm faking my way through most of the song.  Not sure I'll have enough time to devote to it, but I'll see what I can muster...

And just for fun, I thought I'd do one bass playthrough each of Beginner (Arctic Monkeys):

 

And Int (Blondie):

One of those rare 100% on the first try songs; I'd say that on bass this one is easier than the Beginner song and I kinda fell into a natural groove.

1st tries:

 

(first run was used to listen to the song so this was actual first run.... never mind)

 

 

 

Great song - thx!

.... piece by piece ....

 

 

And this conludes my sunday afternoon session:

 

 

 

Gave Blondie a shot - rhythm 72%, lead 68% - not posting these :wacko:

Great work there :D 

Wow, some really nice scores. It's sunday and we already have some 100% :D

 

@@NoonyDeloony Awesome! (think about this crazy Awesome done by RS2014 lector :) ) Nice video, it's always great to see some legendary performances :) It's worthy of some hand clapping indeed :)

 

Leaderboard update.

 

@@MaZtoR Cause you're in Intermediate in both Lead and Rhythm I put your scores there (don't worry, your scores at the end of the week will be better :) ), as well as your 80+ results. Practice makes us better.
