I started playing it a few years ago to learn to play the bass. I found it very easy to pick up after a few days. The tutorials will help you break some of the habits that novice players do (and I still do from time to time.) The only drawback for the console version is you will get bored playing the same songs. The PC/MAC versions will keep you interested longer due to the the features of importing and designing your own music. If you can't fix the buzzing through your guitar, there are many online solutions to remedy these common issues. Most seem to revolve around the calibration techniques used for your guitar.

This game is so much better than the original Rocksmith. The original is (for usage reasons) more like 2-3 stars, even though yes, the learning parts are roughly equivalent in either game. You're still playing guitar or bass along with frets and strings to guide you. It's just that this game is so much more.... friendly and inviting. This actually feels like a single game rather than a bunch of software from a bunch of people thrown together by somebody else. The transitions between practicing parts (which are very selectable for starting and stopping points, not just the section you were on) and playing parts is almost seamless for example. Sorting songs is clear and simple and powerful. The menus are consistent, the sections easy to move to AND back from, plus there is not constant retuning over and over after every little thing. So far, it seems Rocksmith 2014 has fixed every overly annoying thing about Rocksmith, which is like a pre-alpha version of this one. As an example of that, Master Mode gradually just fades out the fretboard, and brings it back if you have problems, rather than just doing what the first game did, giving you a big blank nothing for the entire song, with no images, no tabs, no notes and no potential to learn. I'm sure there's something here to be annoyed with if you've never played the first one though. And for me at least, it's not worth $10 to move the original songs over to this version of the game. I'd just as soon go back and play those songs in the first game. Play them, but that's about it. If I was going to practice the songs from the first game, it might be worth $10 to practice them in this version instead. Although there's enough here to make it rather unnecessary to need to practice any of the original on-disc songs from the first Rocksmith anyway, unless there's some you happen to like them, enough to pay $10 to get them into Rocksmith 2014 to practice. (That doesn't apply to any DLC you have, it all works in Rocksmith 2014 as is, no need to pay anything additional.) This is the game the first one should have been.Read full review
I have been using this "game" for just about two weeks and already I am learning to play the Bass Guitar. I really like the learning method and the learning curve is just right. When I think the game is getting ahead of me and I start missing notes it slows down the learning curve to accommodate me. Also being able to go through sections of a song to learn them slower is very helpful. I also enjoy both the lessons and the jam session. The lessons are even progressive within each lesson and in order of lessons. The jam sessions allow you to work on cords, scales, and thirds and fifths while playing most any kind of music style. Overall I have been very impressed with this game. My only complaint is that in two weeks I have begun to learn over 15 different songs and I am getting quite good at 4 songs. The problem is that I still have very little knowledge of what notes I am playing, and I have no idea how I would be able to read sheet music. Otherwise a great program that when used in conjunction with self paced learning is very effective.Read full review
I now have both versions of this game, the original from 2011 and the new remastered 2014 edition and let me tell you, the remastered is by far the better of the two. This version you can play either Lead, Rhythm or Bass without having to download content with cost. The songs are amazing. I love this version!
