A great way to discover new licks and melodic patterns is to take a lick, melodic shape or note sequence that you often use and move it to different areas of the fretboard.
The benefits of this approach are two-fold. First, the licks and phrases are physically comfortable for you to play because you are already intimately familiar with them.
Second, without the lick posing any new technical challenge, you are more able to focus on hearing how the idea works over a alternate root notes. - บันเทิง

"that bullshit is played with complete conviction"..... this guy is awesome
T Crane That should be a meme
One of my favorite lines in a tutorial
Awesome? This guy's a fucking ninja on the six string. Slayer named their band after his playiing. He's a fucking ninja assassinator beyond the blackstar ninja.
"Started off normal...did some complete bullshit in the middle...ended up normal. And people thought it was great!"
I dig it! Awesome licks! :D
Lesson learned: Bullshit with conviction will make it through!
All time best lead guitarist for megadeth along with nick menza on drums.
That lineup was majestic
chirs. polnd was better
@@LeBronJames-sj7ds I'd say they are about the same level. They do a lot of the same things but in different styles. Chris uses outside the box notes in a chromatic, jazz-like style while Marty uses unusual note choice in a more Japanese/Middle Eastern style.
David Ellefson was unreplaceable
Dream Team
everytime i watch Marty Friedman he makes me change my perspective on music
"Did some complete bullshit in the middle" lmao
Marty literally doesn't give a shit because he's too awesome to care xD
He even makes Bullshit sound awesome! :D
very underated.his style of playing is just plain awesome
+pedro soliano What do mean underrated?! This is Marty Friedman!
Exactly... Quite easily the greatest metal soloist if all time..maybe apart from randy rhoads.... So not underrated at all

I think he meant the way he plays solos, not him as a guitar player.
Would kill to have this guy on one last Megadeth album. Kiko's fantastic, but you can't beat Marty
wish he was on sfsgsw
1:07 ''Complete bullshit in the middle...''Oh yea!? Listen to me while I'm trying to play that shit and you'll change your mind about ''bullshit'' :)
Love how Matty talks man!! So straight up. People take things so seriously. Stress is ur worst enemy and that goes with anything u do.
The challenge of picking the way Marty does is that you have to be very careful not to have the unwanted strings ring out. Muting the unwanted strings in a high gain setting (so they don't ring out), while still having the notes ring out that you want, is where so many guitar players fail. Anyway, very cool to see Marty do this, and it reminds me of an old Frank Zappa quote, which was something like "if you make a mistake, do it again and people will think you did it on purpose." I know that doesn't exactly fit what Marty did here, but it just reminds me of that philosophy of playing outside the box. :)
***** Right on, that is funny indeed. I don't remember where I heard it, but it was probably in a guitar magazine back in the 80s... I used to read every single Guitar World and Guitar for the Practicing Musician front to back! :)
One of favorites, Dimebag, said the same thing. I'm just a wee little beginner, but I'll definitely remember it down the road when I'm more experienced, "mistakes" are what make us as players individual among other things.
:) "once is an error, twice is Jazz!"

"See what I'm sayin" -- Marty fucking Friedman.
8 years later and it still holds up. I first was inspired by EVH, and even if I didn't phrase nearly as good, it still allowed my creativity to shine bright, and for a while now I've been stuck in the same stuff. Watching Marty explain this in 3-4 minutes immediately just opens my pallet again.
"The reason why is cuz that bullshit is played with complete conviction in there.."
xD
It sounds like a bass note is played when he begins the run.
Yes, I noticed it too
See I'm sayin'?
see wum sain. cracks me up. dude can play!
Lol I've always loved this guy's playing. He's never been a great teacher for the musicians that learn visually, but I love that his teaching encourages others to create their own individual styles, just as he has. He's always had a true ear for crafting unique note patterns and rhythms!!
Class act, Marty stands out amongst so many guitar players.
see what im saying?
see 'm sayin'
See um' sayin?
Rocket Science and Clones!
Yeah
I read your comment before watching the video, so the video was terrible for me I pissed myself every time he pulled that off see'um sayin
For anyone who hasn't yet, check out Melodic Control by Marty Friedman. One of the most important instructional videos for anyone interested in rock/metal/shred/melodic guitar playing imho. He always brings up the point of playing with conviction. Play it like you mean it.
EVH is a prime example of attitude. He constantly pushed himself and "went for it," so even if anyone is able to hear the few missed notes or mistakes it doesn't matter. They're too busy being blown away by the 99% of the time he nails it.
Marty said so many important things in this video. I mean let's face it, there's a lot of people out there who can learn to shred or copy someone else's shreds. But turning it into something unique is something else. I've been listening to a lot of the "Allman Brothers at the Fillmore East." There's a 50th anniversary of the album which comes with six cds, one for each of the different shows. They might do a minute amount of shredding but I guess the goal is to go for what's melodic and sounds good. Hope Marty's not mad at me for mentioning The Allman Brothers. I was never a speed metal fan but I'm trying to learn from all influences as Marty suggested.
So glad I found Marty's lesson vids. I grew up rural before internet and never really had someone to teach me or had much encouragement when learning guitar. It seemed most books and video lessons I would acquire (even a few people) always made me feel I was doing everything wrong because my techniques were different from what they considered "correct". Marty helped me realize that these "abnormalities" are what gives you your own unique style and sound. I feel so much better about myself and my playing now. Thank You so much, and I will be sure to encourage other musicians in the same manner. Peace...
he is a true artist,no bullshit.
+Melodious Bard that bullshit is played with complete conviction XD
I've really enjoyed these Guitar World lessons Marty has been doing, hopefully he'll do even more in the future :D
Love that he always tells it like it is without sugar coating anything.
Just knowing he finally spoke about his pick style. Been watching him since the early 90’s.
I saw him live in September at the Great American in SF. What a great show! His playing is such an inspiration to me as player. Inferno rocks, long live Marty!
Introductions and Scenes... two of the best guitar albums ever. I so wish that Marty would make another record in that style.
Although it's interesting in how he explains his unique picking style, I've never needed to do that to avoid muting my notes.
No one does. This is some weird quirk he developed. He has also developed a reason for using it. :P Its completely unnecessary though. But, the guy can play! So I can't bash him for it.
True enough
He played like that since day one. It's not a technique. It's just his own style. It's Marty's natural way of playing.
i think it has to do with the bridge of the guitar
pablo perez he does that on every guitar, you can pick 'normally' on a les paul
When I first heard Marty in the late 80’s, his string bending blew my mind. Very hard to duplicate,copy.
It looks like marty mutes the top strings without muting the the one he wants to play.
.Incredible control... and he had to be conscious of doing this at first until it became his picking technique, without having to always be thinking about it. I needed this lesson.
The reason why I picked up a guitar and started shredding. This guy is so inspiring!
I love how marty never stops getting better. Same with paul gilbert and steve vai.
I enjoy the way he speaks and I feel I can actually learn and take in ideas the way he explains stuff
Marty Friedman, you're a total kickass player!
Marty is the best. Been my fav guitarist since the early 90's...
Marty is a gamechanger.Marty you are the best!
Thank you for the excellent advice, heartfelt suggestions, and encouragement. It's so easy to feel intimidated watching someone this fast. But you give a lot of great advice about doing what fits me and making it my own to create something new and unique. Thank you.
Funny that you called this "full shred", considering that Marty hates the word shred
the term shred gets views though, thats all they care about
He's a badass guitarist in my opinion I love the solos on rust in peace
Jason Taylor dude check his wall of sound album if you havent
MARTY IS THE MAN OF ASIAN SCALES !
So cool! I've been into Marty's (and Jason's) playing since I heard the first Cacophony album way back in '87? I wore out the grooves on my copy of "Dragon's Kiss" because I listened to it so often. His approach to the art of shred was truly original and inspirational. Like all great players, he's one of a kind. No clones!
No words man! This is freaking amazing and hilarious at the same time!
this guy is an absolute idol
Ive been practicing for about 5 months now and I love playing guitar. These videos here are great and Marty is great to learn from! Just yesterday I was practicing scales and I looked down at my picking hand and it was positioned just like Martys oh no !
Damn, for a 52 year old Marty looks great.
+211Appolo he's 52?
Mike Merifield Yeah....lol
He probably doesn't drink or do drugs, probably eats right and looks like he exercises too
I've grew up listening to hard rock and metal and still dig it somewhat (especially the classic's) Its not really though what I'm orientated to in my playing style mostly. But still I watch lessons like this to pick up something. Some kind of inspiration or nugget. Thanks Marty!
Marty has only gotten better with age, man. this guy is awesome!
Marty is great! Hands down, a great player with his own style.
Damn marty is so humble,honest and fucking skilled
inferno was amazing.Still listen to it!
He is such a awesome person, thanks Marty
Love his playing, he is awesome, haven't heard his solo work, but his solos in Megadeth were absolutely amazing, cool, different...Marty is one of my favourite guitarist!
Marty has always been a beast!
Marty is the man who has a new song idea each second.
Great vid! I'd like to add one helpful hint for anyone trying to decipher the first lick- when he says he's staying in the rules with basic Em triads, the lower one (before what he starts calling "bullshit") is actually a Cmaj triad- the relative major of the actual key he's soloing in (Am). This Cmaj triad sets up the chromatic descent and it's the key to making the "BS" part work (besides the conviction thing, that always true)
Anyway, great lick, and yes I've been a fan since cacophony.
PS- correct, the picking is very much like George Benson. I can't get my wrist to play ball on that one, but both Marty and George get VERY fast and toneful playing from it. I'm not hating on it, I really wish I could do it comfortably
cheers
I always loved the way he picked its different..
I took this advice 8 years ago and I'm happy to inform everyone that i still suck. Keep shredding
Ya he definitely has a unique picking technique with the up slant...most schools of thought discourage the up slant...but it definitely works for marty. Paul Gilbert used the upslant when he was young and switched to the down slant when he was in racer x.
I don't know much still an intermediate playwright myself, but I can tell his passion for playing is the same as mine. Nice guitar too.
Luv it when martys like . ""So I played this bullshit but I did it with conviction it's true people want confidence bc they r inspired by it...beethoven said to play a wrong note is insignificant to play without passion is inexcusable!
Who gives a dam
No one
Marty is amazing
I don't understand Marty's justification for his picking technique. You don't mute the strings you're playing. You mute the strings you're not playing.
He just lets the other strings ring, creating harmonics and richness. Compared to an elastic band plucking in a cardboard box on its own. He has the virtuosity to just play what he wants or what he feels on the open strings as it happens, and the devil may care if there's a wrong note here or there, it gets incorporated into the whole which is swift, evolving, different each time and far more awesome than most people can produce with years of practise. Same as piano - pedal off - dry and soulless. Pedal down - different worlds open up, overtones, echoes, fullness of tone. Black and white, or rainbows of colour. Does Roger Federer jump when he serves? No idea. But it goes in more of the time and goes in faster than most other players ever. Basically when you're as good as this guy already was 20 years ago, you can do what the hell you like after and he has. He is a career guitarist, an exploratory musician, one of the greatest exponents of the guitar ever in so many musical styles.
Random noise is not richness.
Going to reply to a four-year-old comment here. I don't really get it either. On classical guitar they for sure let the open strings resonate on purpose to add more depth to the sound, but with High Gain that usually just ends up sounding like staticy noise
@@FriedMetroid i feel like I made this comment very recently. Also Samus4Life.
the reason is when you’re playing with high gain you don’t need to mute all your other strings. It’s hard to explain but just Plug in your guitar and turn your gain up all the way and try playing a chord then a note without muting that previous chord and it won’t be ringing out still.
I love his playing.
I can hear the rust in peace album in your solos alot
I don't know how Marty can solo with that right hand position and get basically no unwanted string noise. Goes to show what a naturally gifted guitarist he is. He has a touch to his playing that most normal people will never replicate.
he mutes as much as possible with his left hand
How can you not love him?!
hes my favorite after seeing him live
The Tailpiece and Bridge on that Paul Reed Smith are sweet af
Inferno is awesome! Still listening!
Great job Marty. Well said.
the new friedman album is amazing, love love love it...HORRORS feat jason holly becker, cacophony 2014...can't ask for more
Muting tip that was a great tip thanks Marty and thanks for being down to earth and I will get that Inferno record thanks again Marty 🎸🎶✌👍
thanks you marty..very easy to understand...practice to make my style guitar..
In other words, you need both trained musician's confidence And street showman's resolve. Ok.
+msumungo and a little bullshit to throw in the middle!
Love you Marty!
happy birthday martyy
Marty turned to Dio
Christos Avg true
but can he stop time
Watching this and hearing Marty talking about his "suffle the soup" picking technique I think you can definitely play non-muted notes without this stuff. But, as I huge fan, I will try to do another interpretation here. I have seen Marty in zillion videos, and my guess is that picking this way actual helps him play very fast sequences of "down stroking" arpeggios ( pick is in a pretty harsh angle towards the ground) and also helps pinching this last note upwards as well ( usual Marty stuff) on his 2 string arpeggios. Lets face it the man is almost arpeggiating everything. No trying to be a wise guy here, just my 2 cents to the story...BTW Marty rules!!!
I finally know why he picks like that! But you can still pick without muting while in the muting position so you can mute easier if needed. Then again he probly never mutes at all.
Thank you Marty!
Marty is one of the greats.his style is very unique,not anyone can emulate him.He and Al Pitrelli are two of Megadeth's most technical guitar players.these licks are tough to play.
Failed Attempt Who's Al Pitrelli and when was he in Megadeth?
I disagree with Al Pitrelli, Chris Poland has that spot.
Pitrelli was in Megadeth in the early 00s.
marty is the man
"ya see what I'm saying?" - Marty
+NickyVengeance it's more of a seeum sayin?
I took one advice from you long long time ago, that its OK to be different from the next guitar player next to you.
watching friedman and malmsteen 's latest videos ... i feel old :)
Zeeum zayin'
This contains some of the most important Marty-isms
what a legend
brilliant player
I like him, he's funny and he knows what he's talking about.
Thanks Marty!
my sister wants her hollister hoodie back, dude.
the man is in the Top 15 of the world's🌎🎵 best guitarists🎸🎸🎸
Good job Marty
He's a beast
awesome lessons! thanks!
Damn, I'm living for that lick at 3:27
great explanation for that picking hand cuz I thought it was like palsy
I think he palm mutes his guitar with hush arm, so he arm mutes his guitar????
+shinglam szeto his******
He doesn't palm mute. He hates muted notes. That hand is like that so that he doesn't mute notes. Its completely not necessary to do that but that's how he learned to keep the notes sounding clear.
+jerky2112 yea, but when he does the rhythm parts, he still palm mutes right?
"palm mute" sounds kinda incorrect. When he plays rythm parts, he actually uses his wrist, to mute strings. It's weird, but to him it works. Look at his audition video with Megadeth
