Aristides T/O | KSR Eros - Megadeth Lucretia Solo

So in "celebration" of the 30 anniversary of Megadeth's masterpiece Rust In Peace, I decided to pay tribute to one of the best solos Marty ever put on tape. Alongside the Tornado Of Souls solo (which I did a few years back) this has been one of the most difficult ones for me to cover. There's so much dynamics to pay attention to: the out of scale (pre)bendings, pronounced vibrato, the right pinch harmonics not to mention the unique arpeggios and string skipping... Marty is a genius!

Laurent Maksimovic hey thanks!!!

[@LifeofEbb]

Amazing cover dude! Somehow with this solo in the key of E it sounds almost like it belongs on Countdown instead!

[@SergioChongLoo]

Yeah I see your point, I love the sound of the Countdown solos, now IMO the ones in Rust have a slightly higher level of complexity.

Black heaven or alpha Omega?

[@SergioChongLoo]

Did you have a chance to take a look at my BH sample vid? Personally I’d say Alpha Omega!
