I saw an ad for “why youtube guitar lessons don’t work” right before this video. I really do think your videos work and you’ve helped me learn a lot of songs I’d never have been able to figure out.
They just mean you play everything by remembering everything you see on TH-cam, and don't actually "understand" the music you play. Kinda true but yeah fuck it lol I also only watch videos
Instruction videos are much alike, your ultimate judge should be ‘does it sound like what I’m trying to play’ and 99.9% of instruction video makers don’t get there. The solo in this one isn’t right and the reason it doesn’t sound quite right is that it needs more distortion, but a lot of TH-camrs make that mistake.
If it wasn't for Marty the guitar my grandpap gave me before he passed away would just be sittin in the corner collecting dust I believe paps up in heaven proud as ever THANKS A MILLION MARTY
Marty is the hardest working guy on the internet. I don't see many people putting out the amount of content he does and not with the quality of his videos. Keep on keepin' on Marty!
Just saw a green day concert yesterday, they played this for the encore along with jesus of suburbia, that concert is one of the best moments of my life
Marty is in my opinion one of the very best guitarists/guitar tutors on the internet, and that shows with how quick this once little project continues to grow, congrats Marty
Whoever says TH-cam can’t teach you to play guitar, they’re stupid. I’ve learned so many chords just from Marty and me practicing everyday has definitely taught me a lot. I wish I could show a video of me a year ago and today now to show the progress I’ve had. Thanks Marty for all the songs you post really do appreciate you for keeping my love of guitar on 🤟🏽
me: *gets halfway through video* "oh he's probably not gonna explain the solo" marty: "now we need the solo" me: *runs extremely fast to bedroom screaming* "RUN!! RUN!! QUICK! QUICK! GET THE GUITAR NOW! edit: my dad: "why did i buy this kid a guitar?"
I live alone...BUT, my neighbours hate me so much since i bought a guitar... The old guy wont even say "good morning" to me when i see him while leaving for work xDD
I need to give Marty kudos. Been playing for 44 yrs. Back then, there was no internet. I'd spend hours with cassettes rewinding and playing to figure it out. You should be so thankful that guy's like Marty are out there posting this. Seriously!
Omg I lost my shit when I saw this video!!! One of my fav songs if not THE favourite!!! You are the beast Marty Man, so much love and support from Croatia as always :D This is gonna be a busy week for me lol
Lovro Knezevic Your assuming that I was supposed to know that, you don't exactly make it clear but anyway have fun learning I know I'm going to have fun learning this lol
Only been on this channel five minutes and i can already see a lot of dedication goes into these videos. And i'm not just saying that because every comment says how hard you work, its because im barely know anything about guitar and you have just showed me how to play a whole song. If you can teach the everyday person that visits this channel that's saying something... keep up the great work. Subscribed and liked!
This guy is an amazing teacher. Especially for beginners. Explains the chord names, notes, plays fast, slow and everything in between. Unbelievable. Way better than the guys who say OK SO ITS AN Fsharp into a pentatonic finger mctwisty and then you wanna use your toes for this sweepy macdaddy followed by the X power chord and remember we are in drop D-1 tuning with a £75000 amp and seventeen pedals that I won't show you.
If it wasn't for Marty I would have never met the friends I met from music its like one big family, I've been playing two months and I'm already almost at performance level at my lessons school and I love all the people there I'm Thirteen and always loved guitar and rock especially green day, Metallica etc... Thank you Marty for contributing how much you do to the music community and beginners or advanced musicians. We love you Marty Thank you.
You'll eventually do it even with small hands, but it'll take time of course. A year ago I though the same as you do, but now even the bigger stretches and fast chord switches between those are like water.
Don’t worry, it comes in time. I’ve had my guitar for 9 months now and, although difficult for me to do large stretches, these come in time. You just need to adjust and get used to it. I’ve had to do arpeggios that were on the seventh fret to the 13th fret on the e string. It comes along as long as you keep trying.
Marty,can you do some more solos.I want to learn whole song but I have go searching everywhere for them. I rather learn them hear than anywhere else.I know that some don't sound great but it would be nice to learn the solo to every song YOU teach.Thanks,and your a great teacher.
I have watched a lot of tutorial videos of this song, yours are the BEST! No BS, no showing off, no tab behind paywall. You make sense of the whole thing (shape and fingering), and the solo part is brilliant (it's hard for a beginner to figure these out from tab alone). Actually this riff is the reason why I got my electric guitar... First I tried to follow your video to learn the main riff on an acoustic guitar, and it shocked me that it's actually playable and sound like the real thing. Now the main riff's already OK, the solo it's on its way. So many thanks for you! Without your video it definitely would take me much longer to begin shredding! (if you call that beginner stuff shredding). Keep on doing this, when I'm at the comfortable level I'll probably go get your ES-335. 😀
Thanks Marty I usually use your videos to help me understand tab better when I’m first starting a song and it helps so much because some things you just can’t understand from reading tab
I always wanted to play these songs ever since high school but our music program in school prioritized those with experience and launched them to Band competitions. The less skilled ones were left to play the simplest songs for grades. Now a college grad, it's been years since I touched my acoustic. I know, not the right guitar to practice this song, but it's the only one I have. I still suck, but this vid helped me out. Thanks, man!
Could you please do a video on The End by The Doors, and also thanks for posting all these vids, 6 months ago when I picked up an electric guitar I leaned most of the riffs and songs from watching your videos and even now I keep watching them, please never stop posting these, you're a great teacher.
Little tip on this song if you are having trouble playing the second power cord so touch the top string with your ring finger to mute it so it sounds right hope that helps someone
This is one of the songs i probably have to play this evening/night with a band on a jamsession live performance. I can play it already okay, but o want better, i want to play it more professional then like a beginner haha, Thank you Marty for saving me
Great video! Next time, you could put the chords on screen then show us how to play them. Also put the strumming pattern on screen. It's a bit hard to see the patterns as I am not a proffesional. Thanks!
Saw a lot of instruction videos on this song and so many just aren’t playing it with the distortion it needs. It’s a punk song! I’m still not convinced of the little stutter he’s doing when he’s not playing that F#5 chord, it’s not just open strings he’s doing some form of harmonic or muting there. Also, the solo is definitely not all one shape, there’s more to it than that. It’s not two guitars it’s because this isn’t how you play it.
hey marty, i just want to say thank you so much for making these how to videos. i just learned smoke in the water and your video helped me more than any teacher would. now moving on can you do a how to on mississippi queen by moutain. thanks for all you do marty!

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame needs a category for guitar teachers.

Plz do the sweet Child o Mine solo
Paul Kludsky Justin sandercoe has just recently released a lesson on the sweet child o' mine solo if you're interested
Ray Ross Yeah, Mr. Stevenson was pretty good wasn't he
Right, and they need to stop inducting hip hop artists in a sad attempt to stay relevant...

I get those on every guitar video I see 😅
I think Marty Taught Steve to play also
That happened to me too. And I totally agree.

I like that he’s playing Green Day and wears a Beatles shirt
heh I didn't notice. That's funny
me learning green day while wearing a nirvana shirt🤣
Pfft-
It shows you can like whatever!!!
So
If it wasn't for Marty the guitar my grandpap gave me before he passed away would just be sittin in the corner collecting dust
I believe paps up in heaven proud as ever
THANKS A MILLION MARTY

Mike Hobgood yes!! I've been saying this for more than a year. ever since he started Marty Music. thank you so much Mr Marty Schwartz
Thanks Mike!
Thank you vincent!!

Mike Hobgood You're so right.
Just saw a green day concert yesterday, they played this for the encore along with jesus of suburbia, that concert is one of the best moments of my life
So amazing to see them live! They're absolutely awesome!
Four years later, the same is still true, saw them a few weeks ago and it was an incredible performance!
Marty is in my opinion one of the very best guitarists/guitar tutors on the internet, and that shows with how quick this once little project continues to grow, congrats Marty

I play guitar every night, now my mom hate me
I’ve been playing for 2 years I’m not that good but I’m decent
That's what my mom said

Pleeeease , Jesus Of Suburbia and Revolution Radio :3
He's done Revolution Radio
Max Shein He's already done a full tutorial on Revolution Radio, and it't amazing!
Jesus of Suburbia is a long song
Hol' up Wut now...
@@benparsons4979 no
Nicely put together explanation, love the way you do the solo!!
PSA: don’t attempt if you have small hands, you will get angry. -A person with small hands
Try "Message in a Bottle" by The Police... That song had me ready to break this damn thing, lololol
ahhh yeah same
I saw a 7 year old play this lol just keep trying.

7:06 is the solo
Thank you!
2 minutes in and there already so many things you’ve done that are amazingly helpful ways of explaining things.

Evan Poste yeah i agree
thanks
look up the tabs
I have watched a lot of tutorial videos of this song, yours are the BEST! No BS, no showing off, no tab behind paywall.

Green day song are so dang fun
Basket case, wake me up when September ends and american idiot are songs that I don't get tired of playing
am i the only one who struggles to see how he’s strumming-
same
Just use your ears. Its easy
bepis if I could use my ears to tell I wouldn’t be trying to visually see it. It’s not easy.
@@allie2113 ah i get it. Just need more time and you'll get use to it. It took me about 2 years to get this skill to kinda decent
Allie For power chords you strum down, but if you’re just starting out, strumming up works too. Just try not to turn that into a bad habit
Thanks Marty I usually use your videos to help me understand tab better when I’m first starting a song and it helps so much because some things you just can’t understand from reading tab
Hey Marty, thanks for all that you do!
I know you've got a bit of a soft spot for Cat Stevens; Would love to hear you do "Don't Be Shy."
Just saw Green Day live last night here in Missouri. Awesome lesson, Marty!
I love how you teach the music, Marty! Thanks for all the help. Whenever I learn a song on guitar, I always come here
More Green Day PLEASE 🙏🙏🙏
Tell me why I stumble upon this video at 11pm and decided it’s a perfectly good time to whip my guitar out and learn this 😂
I would like to see a song from Warning. Maybe Castaway or Macy's Day Parade
Balasar Windstriker he already did Macy's Day Parade
Or Minority would be great
Or Church on Sunday. Love that song
Balasar Windstriker Minority, Warning, or Waiting.
Castaway Please lol
For anyone struggling to figure out the strumming here you go:
G#: DUD
C#: UU
F#: DU
C#: D
G#: D
F#: D
Hope this helps
Thank you
thanks!!
That tip about Billy using his pinkio is the only thing that makes this playable for me! Thank you so much!

Thank you Marty I finally know how to play this now
This was so descriptive and easy to follow! I love this so much!
Can you do greenday holiday? I know you did one on another channel but it was a bit low quality and i would like a better tutorial
Thank you for twenty years of lessons Marty.
I love your videos keep them up you are the only TH-cam guitars teacher that I am able to understand because you take time to go through everything
bro my school played this on the last day of the year
I WAS FOCKING PUMPED
You make it so i learn guitar in 2 months not 5 years thank you for the amazing guitar videos!!!!
I love that marty .i practiced when I come around Green Days. Your lessons and yeah I got it man thanks Marty
I don't understand why guitarraviva or GuitarLesson365 have more subs? You explain and show way better than they do!
Because guitarlesson365 has been teaching for 4 or 5 years and Marty has been on this channel for a year
SHoKK The Snazzy Banisher I'm certain Marty has been teaching for mor than 5 years, I swear to god I watched him as a kid before I even played.
Elliot yeah, he used to be the main guy on guitarjamz I think it was. This is his own channel.
marty just made this channel last summer and its already amazing but he has his old one, guitarjamz and that one has a shit ton
he had something like 1 million
Love your videos! Pretty much taught me how to play guitar!
Thx so much green day is the BEST!!
And you've helped me SO much I can't Thankyou enough Marty! Brilliant like always!
Thanks to the man who made Green Day easy. Give us RevRad or 99 Revolutions please!
i already know how to play this im literally only watching cause i like hearing marty teach
You should do Jesus of suburbia. The whole thing!!!!🙏🏼😂
Can you do a tutorial for "oh the guilt" from Nirvana?
Marty is my favorite tutor , I'd definitely recommend you to anyone.
My guy Marty keeping up that quality content
What I see?! Oh, this is new amazing tutorial for one of my favorite song! Thanks, Marty💚
Love the videos…
One thing missing from a lot of lessons on TH-cam is advice on how to set up an amp for the sound…
When I want to learn a song I look for a lesson from Marty and that will be the first one I click
Little tip on this song if you are having trouble playing the second power cord so touch the top string with your ring finger to mute it so it sounds right hope that helps someone
This works i can confirm i love marty's vids
Marty is a true man of class if he is rocking a les Paul making a tutorial for this song 🤟
I started dying when I saw this video, not of laughter, but of happiness
Best lesson ever thank u greatest channel ever
This is one of the songs i probably have to play this evening/night with a band on a jamsession live performance. I can play it already okay, but o want better, i want to play it more professional then like a beginner haha, Thank you Marty for saving me
Thank you!!! Love how you incorporated the solo another one for my set list.
you made learning the solo super fun and alot easier than i thought it was!
this is probably my favorite band
Great video! Next time, you could put the chords on screen then show us how to play them.
Also put the strumming pattern on screen. It's a bit hard to see the patterns as I am not a proffesional. Thanks!
You just gaved me an idea for my Christmas holiday
Thanks so much. Always appreciate the green day tutorial 💚👌👏
Saw a lot of instruction videos on this song and so many just aren’t playing it with the distortion it needs. It’s a punk song!

Also, the solo is definitely not all one shape, there’s more to it than that. It’s not two guitars it’s because this isn’t how you play it.
Pick ups on your guitar make a big difference with effects especially with music like Green Day’s stuff
Great job as always, learning this to show my son
This is one of my favorite songs, thanks!
Thank you papa Marty
Dude I love how’s he’s wearing a Beatles shirt on a Green Day song
hey marty, i just want to say thank you so much for making these how to videos. i just learned smoke in the water and your video helped me more than any teacher would. now moving on can you do a how to on mississippi queen by moutain. thanks for all you do marty!
My biggest flex is that I learned this without a tutorial
Thank you Marty! I would really appreciate if you taught us letterbomb.
Hey Morty! This is a song that I listened since I was 17, here's another like to you, and my subscription lol
I just realized yup uploaded this on my birthday Thank you 😊
Thank you for all of the great lessons
My fingers hurt 😂 but I’m prepping cause I’m getting an electric guitar in a couple weeks and I’m excited
Marty - always great and fun to watch
Anybody else find themselves singing marty's lyrics to this while they play..."don't wanna be american idiot...then he sings, he sings it again and"
Thanks for the lesson! So appropriate for these days!
on the solo you were right the rhythm guitar plays the chorus riff and the lead does the solo on top
I wish he’d do Paper Lanterns & F.O.D
I was waiting for this tutorial, thanks a lot!!!
Very cool lesson Marty! Thanks
Letterbomb or whatsername
Thanks for all you do Marty!
If u could make Forever Now lesson. Its my favourite song form new album
Great lesson!
Thanks for your videos you are the best teacher i use to see and im french so ahah you do great job
Amazing!
marty: shreds like a wizard
