Hello Rocksmith fans!

Welcome to the first DLC Round-Up of 2018!

It’s been a great start to the year with Top 40 artists being delivered packs like @paramore (six pack), high requested songs from @GreenDay being delivered in their third song pack, neo-folk selections from @MumfordandSons, and finally some long awaited singles from the 1970s from @JethroTull @4GoldenEarring and Grand Funk Railroad!

What a fantastic month for bassists! Outside of the minimalist approach of Mumford and Sons every week had a challenging bass line to conquer!

Ain’t It Fun? Yes it is!

This sugary pop song delivers on the 4 string in a big way!

Gotta love that classic Mike Dirnt feel

Feel like playing a 9:08 Bass song? Green Day will make it happen!

It’s a great song with an approachable bass line. Kate seems to like it!

All three tracks in the 70s Mix III pack are worth checking out on bass, but we all know who the king is… Don’t feel bad if you can’t play it as well as Kevin here 😉

It wasn’t all just bass driven in January. Let’s see what Guitarists had on their plate…

This song has such a groove! It’s not that easy either…

Remember Artist in the Ambulance?

Want something a bit more laid back? After you can play Yellow!

We’ve waited a long time for this one

Simple, but effective

If you don’t mind the tuning this can be a great strumming exercise

Fancy some Banjo-tar? I don’t think the cat does…

Are you familiar with the wild shirtless vocals of Mark Farner?

Think this song has enough arrangements?

The Dutch sure know how to rock!

January definitely had some varied tunings, so many capos and custom tunings that @MumfordandSons needed their own table…

Arrangement E Standard Eb Standard Drop D C# Standard EADGBd# Eb Drop Db Capo Lead 10 1 3 X 1 1 X Rhythm 7 2 3 X X 1 1 Bass 9 1 1 4 X X X Alt. Lead 3 X X X X X X Alt. Rhythm 1 X X X X X 1

Mumford and Sons Tuning

Even with all that varied tunings… E Standard still wins!

Which brings us to the question on everyone’s mind

See you next month!
