The song starts with (video):


----0----


----8----


and yet lessons' notation show something different.


 


There's also one hammer on after that and not two (notation)

there are more missing things before the heavy distorion kicks in as well...


 


Am I reading it in a correct way or this is mess and someone is clearly bad at their job? It is absolutely f... frustrating trying to learn and pick on mistakes along the way not knowing what is going on...

That's first diad should not have a hammer-on.  It should just be the G on the B string and the open E string.  The rest of it looks right.


I've forwarded this to the notation team to fix.

First line?


The notation shows what is played in the "preview/let's check it up close" then something different is taught later in the video. It's one more note but still... It confuses someone who does not know much and is trying to understand things. Is it the same thing but fuller? Different? Which one should I play? Etc.


 


Have a great day/night.

Yes, the notation refers to the performance video.  When there is inconsistency between the performance & the breakdown, then the notation usually follows the performance as the standard.  Typically the performance video & breakdown segments are shot at different times. Then various parts are edited together after the fact.  So sometimes there are small inconsistencies between them.


In this case Mike shows a slightly more full version of the power chords than he plays in the performance.  It's just adding an extra root note an octave higher.


|------------------|
|------------------|
|----------5-(c)---|
|--5-(g)---5-(g)---|
|--3-(c)---3-(c)1--|
|------------------|


Hope that helps!

nvm,


 


found some other minor inconsistencies but I've decided not to trouble you with them (especially that there are a few of them in different parts of the song...). I cannot figure them out from the performance part (too fast) so they may fall into the previously mentioned category of : "When there is inconsistency between the performance & the breakdown, then the notation usually follows the performance as the standard.  Typically the performance video & breakdown segments are shot at different times. Then various parts are edited together after the fact.  So sometimes there are small inconsistencies between them."


 


P.S.


No related but super important:


I would love to have a working spellchecker on forum though ;(  It's really hard for a non-native to write here without this aid. The fact that this is the only place/forum where it doesn't work is making it even harder to bear/

When in doubt follow the notation of the performance!


"I would love to have a working spellchecker on forum though ;(  It's really hard for a non-native to write here without this aid. The fact that this is the only place/forum where it doesn't work is making it even harder to bear/"


That's a good idea!  I'll pass it along to the admin!

I don't see nor hear any palm-muted ---0--- s


which are noted in many places throughout the song


for example, after:


-5---5------------------


-5---5------------------


-3---3------------------


-------------------0P.M.----


 


 


or


 


 


-9---9--------------------------------


-9---9--------------------------------


-9---9--------------------------------


-7---7--------------------------------


-0---0-------------0P.M.-------------


 


Am I missing something or this is wrong as well?

Those low E notes are all in the riff.  Mike sometimes lets them ring a bit louder, sometimes a little less loud.  But it is difficult to hear sometimes with that overdriven tone.  Sometimes it's just a quick little "clunk".  But they are in there.  Hope that helps!

Have a great day~!!

What about here? I can see and hear it being played with a slide from 2nd fret up to 3rd yet the notation shows 2 and 3 without a slide.


 


I would appreciate an insight and a little help from someone who knows, once again :)


 


 


Also Duck And Run: Jam Along is missing notation:

There are some missing palm-mutes in the second part of the first line of the notation...


 


I am trying to figure it out but even with a slowed down video it is still way too fast for me to register all that is happening :/


 


The only thing I have managed to figure out is that the notation do not match what is played... making it REALLLLLLLLLLY hard to learn... 


 


You see one thing and hear something different... This is really wearing me off... 

I have learnt a lot from the guitartricks and this is the only reason I am still here but I keep wondering if I could have learnt more and faster if things were done properly and with more care.
