For me Rust in Peace and Symbolic by Death are the two greatest metal albums of all time, and Marty is one of the biggest reasongs why Rust is so good.
MaTtRoSiTy Definitely, you should check out the solo he did for Skyharbor's Celestial. It's so imediately recognizable it's not even funny. Needless to say it's an awesome fucking solo too.
***** except music isnt a competitive sport. there is no best. that flatly doesnt exist. marty gets it, he doesnt want to be best, he wants to be marty.
I love how he plays fast but his phrases aren't just linear runs through scales or the equivalent of arpeggio exercises. Every phrase is well thought out and melodic with interesting note choices. I find Marty far more interesting and original than 99% of shredders
Broderick and Poland are awesome, but Marty had an ear for good phrases. Every note was meant to be in the solo. There was never too little or too many ideas in his solos. They were perfect.
marty plays effortlessly. smooth as silk. can play fast but under control. great note choice. dos bends. in my book the best metal lead guitarist.!!!!!
what sounds good to your ear... so true, when I had just begun learning guitar, I had only learned the C major scale. But the first melody I ever made was in E minor but I also used a major 6th, obviously I didn't understand that back tgen but now when I look at it I see the most unique melody by me
One of my personal all time favorite players that doesn't play even close to what these shredders of today play is the great Robin Trower :-) He puts 100% of his emotion in his playing.
Marty, you are the man. Megadeth was never the same without you. Also, eat man you are too thin. Pack on the pounds man so you can duel Chris Broderick, haha.
Great advice! I'm a hammer-on and pull-off type of player. I love hammer-on's and pull-off's because it sounds cool and it's really comfortable and I always combine that with bending and I think it sounds pretty good ;) I guess my playing is labeled as blues/rock :) I'm not a shredder though haha!
My guitar teach always emphasized legato and I love the super smooth way he plays with little picking with tons of flavor to boot. It's done in a way I haven't heard before and I'm really feeling it
I'm not knocking his right hand but the best description I heard was that martys right hand is like going for a pee and pulling your trousers to your ankles; it's effective but makes everyone uncomfortable lol
Friedman says he's a fake jazz player. But he plays lots of advanced Jazz fusion with Japanese bands.. He's trying to downplay his technical knowledge, but he's played with the most technical jazz band DCPRG. He makes lots of fusion stuff like Cassiopeia with Japanese artists
Help me to remember it is about results and individuality. He’s inspirational because he’s reminding us that 96% of guitar players are self taught and it’s all for fun so find your style and be happy. And to focus on the lesson, do it 💨 fast Lol
Marty must have totally hated being on something called "Full Shred" 😂 bc he is not a fan of that appellation at all, but he's such a humble guy he just rolls with it. 🤘🏼💙🙌🏼🐐
Still tripping out over his pick hand. He plays under the strings being played. Yet he's beast. This is more proof that conventional does not necessarily mean correct.
The concept he is trying to get across is to be different. Playing fast doesn't mean a thing if it doesn't say something musically. Most shredder types play a bunch of complicated nonsense that rarely fit's anywhere than by itself in a stand alone environment. Players like Marty get it, playing outside the box, adding dynamics and making it musical is how you differentiate yourself from the pack.
Finding your path to rediscovering the Dorian mode. ;) You can achieve more musical freedom if you learn all the theory and do then what Marty suggests which is exploring music and searching yourself.
if it works for him, then awesome....i just dont get it, because he lets nearly all the other strings ring out when he picks like that. but hey, I'm not Marty.
Make it unique. I remember when I was listening to some song of Nita Strauss and at some point I thought: Man, she ripped this part of Marty like hell... Then I've learnt Marty was a guest in that song (lol).
Marty’s peculiar way of placing his right hand makes his style of playing prone to string noise. Nobody is perfect but still, I wish I had that kind of technique.
He claims he developed that picking style to avoid string noise. He holds his hand completely away from the strings so just the pick hits even when he's going fast.
@@Vic-f1t I know. I've been playing over 20 years. I'm not great but I can play. What I mean is other than palm mutes Marty holds his hand that way to avoid access noise. I can't play the way he does myself.
@@SaintKines no matter what your strings resonate when you hit notes. you can check it when play any note(as example, E on 5th) your first and 6 string start make noise(you can see that strings vibrating, when you touch them with finger you should feel that), and you have to use noise gate(with good settings pedal mute noise and make your sound much worse), other way mute with palm :)
ehh i like this guy but he is subject to criticism like everyone else tbh. anyways i say shock your finger muscle memory honestly. its the only way to start playing newer stuff that you have never thought of before.
Totally correct. When I first started I just cut on the radio and played around with songs. Didn't know chords or scales or modes or any of that garbage. Individualism is that.
I'm writing this without a face. It has been melted.
Fancy seeing you here Mike
Sup Mike
Cringe bruh
His playing on Rust In Piece is some of the greatest metal of all time by anyone.
For me Rust in Peace and Symbolic by Death are the two greatest metal albums of all time, and Marty is one of the biggest reasongs why Rust is so good.
Definitely, nobody plays phrases quite like him. His playing made that album great
MaTtRoSiTy Definitely, you should check out the solo he did for Skyharbor's Celestial. It's so imediately recognizable it's not even funny.
Needless to say it's an awesome fucking solo too.
jmaguerra He's definitely very distinctive
***** except music isnt a competitive sport. there is no best. that flatly doesnt exist.
marty gets it, he doesnt want to be best, he wants to be marty.
He is not only a great musician, but a great and inspiring teacher as well, always pushing us forward..!
Play with confindence....that´s a great point!
He is so beyond the typical shredder, he is a true MUSICIAN who happens to have unbelievable speed and exotic phrasing/timing
Marty makes me better at guitar. Thank you. Kids 40 years from now are gonna be amazed that this dude was alive.
I love how he plays fast but his phrases aren't just linear runs through scales or the equivalent of arpeggio exercises. Every phrase is well thought out and melodic with interesting note choices.
I find Marty far more interesting and original than 99% of shredders
His love of oriental music really shines in his playing too. . . And then there's his technique 👌🔥
This is why Marty is my favourite guitarist of all time, a true individual!
One of the best guitar lessons ever. Very important to learn the message in this imo. Plus Marty is of course ridiculously awesome guitarist.
Best guitarist Megadeth ever had hands down.
You got that right! Friedman is the man!
Broderick and Poland are awesome, but Marty had an ear for good phrases. Every note was meant to be in the solo. There was never too little or too many ideas in his solos. They were perfect.
Chris Poland was very good. He's awesome nowadays
marty plays effortlessly. smooth as silk. can play fast but under control. great note choice. dos bends. in my book the best metal lead guitarist.!!!!!
Bow. Marty is one of the greatest metal guitarists ever. Thinking outside the box like this is what made all those Megadeth solo's so fucking amazing.
Marty has been around for
A long time, shred master all
the way. Great encouragement and offerings. Thanks marty
This guy makes everything sound so easy :D
I love how laid back he is :) Individuality FTW :)
what sounds good to your ear...
so true, when I had just begun learning guitar, I had only learned the C major scale. But the first melody I ever made was in E minor but I also used a major 6th, obviously I didn't understand that back tgen but now when I look at it I see the most unique melody by me

This interview alone did so much for me and my playing.
Not only is Marty a great player, he's also a fantastic teacher.
This is the greatest lesson I've ever been taught
Marty, you are the man. Megadeth was never the same without you. Also, eat man you are too thin. Pack on the pounds man so you can duel Chris Broderick, haha.
best guitarist even. doesn't use a whammy bar. dime was cool but he's a legend
4:57 I expected Tornado of Souls
yeah the song is in Bm
shit, he sounded pretty jazzy to me for a non jazz dude.
I like this new mature Marty...he plays better than ever, but doesn't act as cocky as he used to.
Best metal lead player EVER
Finally someone talking sense!!

how u hit em' is your business!
And business is good
I love Marty’s philosophy.
SQUIRREL!!!! at 0:48 lol
Marty thank you... thank you very much
I'm not knocking his right hand but the best description I heard was that martys right hand is like going for a pee and pulling your trousers to your ankles; it's effective but makes everyone uncomfortable lol
That tone.
Wow, he's such an original player

Lol
Now this is epic
Marty must have totally hated being on something called "Full Shred" 😂 bc he is not a fan of that appellation at all, but he's such a humble guy he just rolls with it. 🤘🏼💙🙌🏼🐐
feel free to use your ear as much as possible! trust me, its perfect!
I love the "easy for you to finger it " oh yeah love it marty !!
God Marty is great.
Really great advice.
Still tripping out over his pick hand. He plays under the strings being played. Yet he's beast. This is more proof that conventional does not necessarily mean correct.
Great advice Marty.
Marty, Steve Lukather, and Nuno are the tastiest shredders in music.
Great music project sessions .
The concept he is trying to get across is to be different. Playing fast doesn't mean a thing if it doesn't say something musically. Most shredder types play a bunch of complicated nonsense that rarely fit's anywhere than by itself in a stand alone environment.

Awesome advice from an awesome guitarist!
that picking hand man wow what IS that
Finding your path to rediscovering the Dorian mode. ;) You can achieve more musical freedom if you learn all the theory and do then what Marty suggests which is exploring music and searching yourself.
You are a guitar God very unique love lola from classic cuts salon south lake tahoe,😎
Great lesson
Great video, weird picking style.
He explained in an interview that he picks like that because, for him, it produces the cleanest notes.
if it works for him, then awesome....i just dont get it, because he lets nearly all the other strings ring out when he picks like that. but hey, I'm not Marty.
how come he can play so clean his picking hand holding like this...?
this is crazy
Palm muting lol he says he plays like that because he hates sweeps and wants to hear each note.
I think I went bananas, because I think Marty plays very dirty on this video.
Very special picking style, but that is how HE rolls.
Awesome tips
forget about what you see in books and just play what sounds cool and is comfortable to you - marty friedman
hard to argue lol
The fucking MAN
Such a sick player o_O
this is COOOOOOOOOOOSMIC (like everything he says)
I love the guys playing. Have for so many years. Yet his picking hand still makes me feel physically sick.
His tone sounds like 2 fuzz faces maxed out together. I like it.
3:16 good advice
3:12 Harmonic minor?
Damn respect
Marty
"You might as well do it cool"
@transtremm...tornado of souls...
MAN MARTY KKKKKKKKKKKKKKICKKKKZZZ AAASSS STYLE..........AAAAAALWAYS......!!!
He is more or less combining B minor Blues with F# Minor Blues in that last lick
Hell yeah!
The first three examples are much used in Serbian/Macedonian folk music.
Aaaa
Macedonia is a greek territory that belongs to Greece!!! i think u meant to say skopije( who are actually slavs)!!!
he is like ronnie j dio
“Here I’ll play it slow” lmao
Marti svira narodnjake
Ne da svira,nego kida :-)
This guy doesn't age at all!!
Make it unique. I remember when I was listening to some song of Nita Strauss and at some point I thought: Man, she ripped this part of Marty like hell... Then I've learnt Marty was a guest in that song (lol).

He’s god he mutes them with him mind
@@SaintKines probably you never hold a guitar. when you play you MUST touch strings that should not sound with your hand and mute them :)

No disrespect to Jason Becker at all, but there's something that Jason lack that Marty could bring.
I'm confused. Is marty with Jackson or PRS?
Max B-P He was playing PRS for a few years but recently rejoined the Jackson family.
Hitlerino Kripperino Cool. Cheeers
this video was in 2014 bro hehe now he's back with jackson.
4:39
what's the song on the intro
Me: Sees Marty's is really in the video
Me: Stops the video and likes it
Imagine how fast he would be if he had good picking technique?
Similar with Bruce Lee's philosophy :) Great !
press 3... totally random! :D
"Speed is not important"... then plays a pattern at full speed (and downstroke)
XD
Do as I say
Not as I do.
Ok Marty..you da boss
ehh i like this guy but he is subject to criticism like everyone else tbh. anyways i say shock your finger muscle memory honestly. its the only way to start playing newer stuff that you have never thought of before.
seriously guitar world PLEASE quit it with the horrible noise gate on the voice
Totally correct. When I first started I just cut on the radio and played around with songs. Didn't know chords or scales or modes or any of that garbage. Individualism is that.
We don't deserve Marty
Marty friedman with PRS SE ?????
That picking technique he has 0_o
1:29 sound better XD
Marty has funky personality. For funky junk guitar visit Dirty DOM Music ( not that rapper guy using my name).Press the encircled D.
Like mustaine said. Marty style is more to middle east music.
Yeah the tittle is a bit too much
please do a thing about the right hand. you rip.
If you can find things that are easy 4 you 2 finger (it)!!
🤣 Life lesson y'all! 🤣
