How do you finger Arterial Black Solo a+b? If I really tried I could get this FC, I'm just having trouble with this section. _________________

OMFG HELLASHES! SAY HI TO ME AND I'LL LEAVE YOU ALONE!
Lol, jk, I actually do have a quesiton though... for most songs (i'm going for score right now) is it a good idea to try and start with the somewhat easy stuff first, and then work up until the solos? I'm asking because I've come so close to FCing Impulse so many times... Like... I've FCed the solos, but missed -2 on the intro parts. Or I get 100% on all the other parts, but get -3 on the solo, and onwards and onwards... Which is a good idea at first? (also tapping advice on TTFAF 'You Rock' would be nice) _________________

Jesus, I need to update more often. I hate doing these giant posts.

I found 2 finger sliding to be easier on those zig-zags.

Rude Mood, try learning the main riff the best you can. That's the majority of the song. Aim for SPs, and save SP for that crazy 3 note chord section that's OMGWTF worthy.
You can play customs on slower speeds if you replace the 50.vgs, the 65.vgs, and the 85.vgs files with the song you used to replace the normal vgs file.
|
For SSB, do you hit the higher note with 4, or 3?
For custom slower speeds, do you have to slow the song down before replacing those files, or does it do it automatically? Also, do you have to use the same offset as you did for the regular song? |
I hit blue with my ring finger, and orange with my pinky. Also, you don't change ANYTHING with the song you used for the original .vgs. Use the same offset and everything.

Try sliding up to the with 1-3 fingers, then sliding back down to red afterward.

I decided to try alt-strumming but I can't seem to get the strumming down. Should I alt-strum the whole way or only parts of it?
Thanks |
Try mixing down strumming and alternate strumming together. I do that on Six's verse and it makes it much easier IMO.

Of course, I'm no Lo7, and I can't 1 hand this, so how do I tap it? Tried all zigzag tapping methods I know of >_>. |
I've never found a tapping technique that's good enough to hit this. :/ Only ways are 1232 and 2343, both anchoring every note.
pedrohero wrote: | hey HA,how do I hit those trills,in RaBl,after the slow BO trills? |
The 1st post of this thread has the fingering for that.

Firstly, is there any videos/pictures of the gloves you use/used to use? I've been wanting to use them but I didn't really know what kind, exactly (wool, mittens, leather, etc.)
Secondly, I wanted to know some techniques/songs I can practice trills and/or zigzags with. I'm terrible at both of them, and I've been trying to get better at them.
Thanks. |
1. They are wool gloves. BTW, don't play them with real guitar, they wear off quick. :P
2. Freebird solo C has a fast zig-zag, then a slow zig-zag in it. Tonight, I'm Gunna Rock You Tonight, has slow trills that helps you practice consistency.

I don't think the type of material should matter too much. As long as it isn't TOO restricting to your hand. I had wool gloves BTW.
PriestRSC wrote: | What about 'timing', like for songs like 'take this life' or 'misirlou' where it's complicated to get the timing down, how do you take care of that? Also, on B&tH do you suggest doing the hammerons on the fast strumming solo?
and finally! What song do I do next on GH2?
My GH2 Scores |
Well, I stare at the measure lines. If it's 8th, 16th, 32nd notes, I count to 4 and make sure 1 is on every beat. If it's any form of triplet, like KoC, I count to six and make sure 1 is on every beat.
For BatH, I strum swing 8ths, and try to keep my left and right hands seperated as much as possible.
jamesw wrote: | How do you do solo D of Beast and the harlot?
Not just fingering, but the timing of the strumming, because whenever I see vids of solo D FC's the hammer-ons are used and it sounds like they are creating a consistent rhythm of two strums per triplet. It's hard to explain, but watch witwix's video of him FCing the solo 5 times in a row and you will know what i mean.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoUz6XR83r0 |
I strum swith 8ths. Basically, it's how I do Rude Mood as well. Check my video out of Rude Mood to hear the strumming. It's the exact same as BatH.

Well.....if you can hit everything pretty well, but miss in random spots, the only thing you can do is just continue playing the song over and over. You'll start getting more consistent with everything and soon enough the FC is yours. _________________

Hai HellAshes!
Ok, for Cliffs of Dover Intro Solo B, the part where it looks kind of like the TTFAF intro backwards.....how do you do that?
Also, the part on DWDTG where the trill tranfers are on the verse/chorus that separates the two solos, the part where it's OYOYOBRBRYGYG (Or something close to that) do you tap it? If so, how?
Thanks |

Use : Y : without the spaces, and you get
You get FC's by playing easy.
-_-
Anyways! Hai HellAshes~.
A few pages back, you said :Quote: | Making it to the top takes practice, patience, dedication, and discipline. Wow...that was so fucking cheesy, but true. Anyways, instead of worrying about ranks on songs, compare yourself to the top scores of the game. The song you are furthest from first on normally is the song you can gather the most points from, and work from there. |
Well, I practice a lot, I definitely have patience, I'm more than dedicated, and I'm disciplined to the point where I got C's in college because of GH. I guess that shows lack of discipline... >_>
Do you have any particular routine you did? Do you felt you got much better because you had more challenging customs? I mean, it feels like I've hit a wall, like I'm not improving anymore whatsoever.
I'm already a decent player, I've FC'd half of GH3, with a few top 100 scores. If you have any tips on how to improve even further, I'm all ears.
Thanks a lot. ^_^ _________________

Some people can do it one handed, but for the people who can't get that speed down, you of course must tap it. With GHIII, you can tap the orange as fast as you want. (As long as it's faster as or as fast as the song.) Meanwhile, your left hand just frets the buttons below it like normal.
For TDWDTG:

Well I didn't play my first custom till last August, and I was already up top. Customs DEFINITELY helped my hand increase speed and dexterity, especially preb's fucked up charts. There really was no routine for me. I compared myself to top scores, and played the song I was furthest from top on, and kept playing till I got what I want. _________________

Play them in FeedBack. Mess with the offset until it matches the song. _________________

Looking at your Fingerings HA... Looks like you try to avoid using the pinky a lot, Where as I use mine all the time, i kinda stay in 1st position til an orange comes up then I shift down to position 2, then stay there in that position til I see a green come up then shift back to position 1. so I'm using my pinky a lot when I'm in position 1. Hard to see exactly how you would play a song from your explanations. I can see clearly how you would do the solo's though! what I'm asking is
How did you get accustomed to actually playing with your index finger on yellow, middle on blue, ring on orange, and still shred away, I do that and I get so confused only way I can play is to stay in position 2 and use my pinky for the parts where you wouldn't.
I seem to remember someone saying MONTHS ago about you playing with 3 fingers for a while? I don't know if there is any truth in this. I'm just looking for ways to get better myself. I've hit a bit fuckoff 12inch re-inforced concrete wall. Fc's are not coming easy at all for me anymore, i'm upto 42 FC'd on GH3 which I guess is better than the general public, but that's really not good enough for me at the moment because half of scorehero.com is doing as well as me, and I don't wanna be an average ScoreHero player lol!
If you've ever played Tom Morrello Guitar battle(DLC) for instance, there is a part that goes
Or something like that.. I slide my pinky from Blue to orange while you would slide your index from green to red... Have I caught onto a REAL bad habit that I need to fix? I still hit it fine and all but just wondering if it will affect me later on if I don't learn the fingerings the proper way.
Anyway, I hope you keep this thread going cuz It's good to know there is always help from you a post away. You doing a great job with all this aswel! |

It's more of what your comfterble with, there is no "proper" way to play sections of songs, some are easier then others, but if you find it more comfterble to play things like CoP with 1 finger go ahead :P _________________

Imagine TDWDTG with 1 finger... but yeah, if you're comfortable with something, it should work great... I.E. Hellashes has Jesus fingers and it allows him to do things faster to make it more comfortable for him. I have... maybe a bit faster fingers then normal and so different things are comfortable for me... oh, and I tap that one part you put on there, I just tap the blue fret. :P _________________

Whatever floats your boat. If you have an easier time sliding with your pinky, do that. Also, I use 3 fingers more often because I'm more consistent with those fingers. I use my pinky a lot more now though. _________________
