Rock and Blues Electric Guitar Solo Lesson - Blues Rock Lick on Gibson SG

[FunksFX]

Hmm i also thinks the D uses something similar in the Master Exploder intro solo :D

[Drew27368]

Dear Marty, thank you for posting these videos. You have helped me become a great guitar player in a short amount of time, i have been playing guitar and watching your videos for 5 years!! keep up the great work

[Leather811]

1:58 hahahahaha  Acid!

[Lukaeeee]

dislikes go down

[Emoboy1005]

Nice :D



[Raxu94]

Find it annoying with people saying this is John Frusciante lick or Jimmy Page lick (I am a huge fan of those two btw). It is just that this is a FUNDAMENTAL in rock soloing that EVERYONE uses. Would not call this someones signature lick..

[Ryokan01]

@Raxu94 believe it or not it's actually a T bone walker lick. At least that's the earliest I hear a version of this lick. It is very fundamental though you are right, but everybody stole it from T Bone walker.

[IfearGuitars]

the last version is so frusciante :D

[FilmPriest]

Thank you! This helped me learn the intro to Scar Tissue in Sao Paulo :D

[IfearGuitars]

@FilmPriest me to :D

[nightthewolfhanyou]

[Dennizzz119]

You're still too sloppy yourself.

[1Linkinmaniac]

[stevelovesguitars]

[kristinparkermusic]

Hahaha! Suuuuuuuuuppppppppeeeeeeeerrrr­rrr Slllllllllooooooowly :) You know, this is one of those stock 'n trade licks that we tend to take for granted, but it's actually quite hard to get the hang of! I never get tired of hearing it, though.

[yugijan2196]

holy shit!!! 2:00 was an acid tripppp

[kep67]

does that guitar have active pickups??

what's the difference in sound active vs passive pickups??

[Ebeet0FAN]

@kep67 The active ones give a lot more like powerful sound you know? They just spitt out the sound ! If youre playing metal than emg´s are great !

[byakuganmaggot]

in the beginning was that "Free bird"

[danielsmokejoints]

the 1st solo is equal to the solo of nothing else matters, just compare and you see that one part of nothing else matters has de same notes.

[KingOfShadows1500]

sg rules!! xD

[iloveyfc1]

awesome lesson dude 

[RadiantAmar]

Thanks for the lesson. I find your teaching style to be very clear and understandable. I love this lick and can't wait to perfect it!

[bryanfofyan123]

i have that guitar. and thanks for all the lessons marty your the best!

[samwillpunchyou]

dude you r awesome

[ukchris64]

Marty ignore the crappy comments the stuff you teach is good, I find this hard and have to ask do you actually touch the high E? With practice I'm sure I will get it in time, once again thank you for your time.

[mandymoore95]

Anyone know what kind of a distortion pedal he's using?

[B2Rockin]

Is that a Dr. Z amp? Whatever it is it sounds amazing ;) \m/

[crippleskater22]

@B2Rockin It's a divided by 13 amp that's all I know though

[BassOnABudget]

@TheGibsonman59 faggot

[TheGibsonman59]

@BassOnABudget My friend has even been plyn longer. . his names Mike Tyack, he's been doin his stuff for years, he's knows Skip . . Skip's Music, he used to have some of the baddest gear, but unf. got stolen, he only has his SG left. .. Went to a music school in Hollywood, had a badass teacher that only let his class use the Marshall Stacks, and wdn let the Jazz assholes tk them ..

[BassOnABudget]

@TheGibsonman59 bad move man. i love jazz ;P

[TheGibsonman59]

@BassOnABudget I like Jazz to, but this is coming from my friend . . . and which was 20 smthn yrs ago, just to clear that up . . . i play/like Rock, Jazz, Blues, Funk, Motown etc

[BassOnABudget]

@TheGibsonman59 ok. now i get it :P lol. i though u were being an ass hole :P

[TheGibsonman59]

@BassOnABudget Naw man, i like jazz alot . . . i need more jazz albums :P

[TheGibsonman59]

My friends 1964 GIBSON SG is nicer looking and sounding than that. . . . wts up w/ that slow motion stuf, that was a FAIL. . . just stop Marty, ur not a shredder, my friend can also play better than u, shit i can play better than that.

[TheAerosmith3]

@TheGibsonman59 you wish you could rich moron

[TheGibsonman59]

@TheAerosmith3 Actually, im not rich . . . but i can play like that, i have some guitars and amps, but only b/c my dad has the word around town. Im hopefully gna be gettin a Les Paul soon, Gibson .. . fuck Epiphone

[TheAerosmith3]

@TheGibsonman59 Epiphone is actually rather nice guitars Gibson is just better sound and quality Gibson is the best though

[TheGibsonman59]

@TheAerosmith3 True, a teacher friend of mine has an Ephi. .. . its nice, but i just prefer the actual Gibson Les Paul, that's all

[TheAerosmith3]

@TheAerosmith3 yah me too i just aint got the money

[gothyke]

that's the worst sounding Gibson I heard in my life.

[Bigolmeanie]

Marty man continues to be FKN ROCKIN !!! I love your lessons Bro!

[resistancemonkey]

[keban31]

That is the guitar I really would like to get, same sweet colour too!!

[TheMarlon32]

[uutoobee]

Tenacious D? you're way better

[Misterwhalley88]

Awesome lesson Marty, one of my favorites so far!

Thanks for making these great lessons.

Plus that guitar is sweeeeet.

[dekomondo]

lol , im kinda mad because i never seem to find a guitarist that isnt fat...makes me think i'll get fat if i play on a guitar...

[warnerkickass123]

@dekomondo fucking asshole go back to sucking you mums cock

[GuitarFromD]

The slow version when he uses a sloppy fist sounds kinda Indian or something :D

[seanzxjulian]

2:00dude u freak me out!!!

i fell off me chair!

[jmanbgg]

dude the color of the sg when you go to like unverted color is amazing.

[trshev]

Back in 1967, I bought a Gibson SG off a friend for $75. I think he paid like $150 for it two years before that. Being the year that it was and with many new "medications & herbs" out there, I stuck out my thumb and went.....? By the time I returned, my room had been changed around and my poor SG had been donated to the sanitation engineers!!! Can't really complain, my parents sure didn't know what it was!!! I just hope some poor guy knew it was his turn to hit the lottery and learned to play!

[RyderGuy007]

I'm sorry to hear that, man

[mimimishima]

damn sg gibson!!!!!!

nice!!!!

[064panik]

would some please subscribe to my videos of my recordings i made on my 4 track? and tell me what i need to improve on? id like to get to the point where i can play neo classical.

[spinvilchy]

Did he really need to spend 7 min on THAT! Come on man! That was bunk.

[biking022]

im getting that sg

[texas833]

thats sounds like the solo from green grass and high tides! o.O

[texas833]

that sound like a the solo from green grass high tides! o.O

[underman14]

remi FTW

[pazoozalator]

Anybody know what amp Marty is using?

[pazoozalator]

Anybody know what make of amp that Marty is using?

[heysler18]

@pazoozalator

Divided by 13

[newclearwaste]

I loved the little video editing things you did in this vid

the lesson was good too, haha

[RockSoilder1]

6:53 I gasped because how awesome Gibson is

[climberclay]

Nice job. Love the videos. Keep it up.

[fjkdienmd]

now I'm gonna haf ta get me an SG dern you Marty1

[HLGxFataIity]

another great vid, way to go marty!

[BoshPit09]

What are you using to loop that riff near the end?

[mefmef21]

these are sectuplet notes. or triplet 16th notes. meaning 6 notes in 1 beat. the first bend is worth 2 of those 6 beats then the rest are sectuplets

[zartan123456789]

Nom nom nom mmmmmmm.... tasty zone....

[cliffsasexybeast]

marty you are king..I AM NOT WORTHY!!!

[delmo16]

fuck i hate this guy xD

i want his skills lol

[Skimmary]

reminds me of free bird (i think its free bird anyway)

[saiyan195]

Why not get a standard spend a little more for a more aesthetically pleasing and better sounding guitar?

[pashtettRB]

Not a bad lesson, man.

[heros2015]

Another great lesson. Thanks Marty!

[chesshirecat2]

tasty zone, i like it, ha

[sk8erriot]

good luck on the eric clapton crossroads festival contest.

I HOPE YOU WIN MARTY i voted for you \m/

[kraker109]

I want your sg special

[stevweb16]

Marty, how many guitars do you own? I am ever so jealy!!

[stevweb16]

It's the pull-offs that are difficult.

[stevweb16]

Very tasty!!

that's the same lick Page uses on Communication Breakdown.

[BosshogProductions]

kinda the same in stairway to heaven solo too

[withonly1tand1tonly]

Sweet shirt, ahaha. And thanks for all the lessons!

[trailblazer225]

The first lick you show in this video is and always has been my favorite solo lick. Angus Young loves things like this. Also, Slash uses a complex variation on this the Sweet Child of Mine solo. Which I also learned from you. : D

[supersxe639]

Marty your the man!!!

[sangolt88]

Its so much easier to see whats going on when its in HD. Great lick btw.

[escaperoute2]

SUPER SLOWLY!!!!!!!!!!

[amast3rMind69]

I can do this no problem with my ring finger... does it matter if I use my pinky or the ring finger.

[TANERSKITO]

the solo from nothing else matters contains familiar riff

[aileedaddy]

wish i could do that.

[aileedaddy]

u rock

[aileedaddy]

u rock

[pkmarsham07]

your a great teacher 5 star man

[tmib92]

Good work as always, thank you marty for these free lesson's. Youre the man!

[Slowhand1981]

Hey Marty! Why don't u use alternate picking on that kind of licks? Because of the speed or because of the sound?

[joshyboy152]

What guitar pedal? amp?

[happyted2006]

Chuck Berry esque  , brilliant,

[lagertobi]

i love your shirt^^ the D!!! yeaa :D

thanks for the lesson!!

greez from bavaria :)

[lonewolf604]

nice i always wanted to learn how to do this, especially since its part of the dani california solo

[klaran]

marty owns!

[VLombardi01]

Ace Frehley loves that lick. Listen to the live one Album.

[GuitarzMyThing]

2:00  Holy crap....That will give me nightmares...

[wasup4536]

awesome! rickeygotthebluse is rong lol marty kicks ass

[Kingdeme]

FUNNIEST INTRO EVAR!!!!

[Kingdeme]

Pd THANK YOU SO MUCH MARTY :D

[MarkMusic20]

Beautiful guitar ! n' nice timbre !

[ptdatnurpipensmkit]

i just had a flashback at 2:04

[Z0mgJesus]

Any chance you can do a lesson on pinch harmonics? :D

[bsan1er]

WHOLE LOTTA LOVEEEEE

[rickeygottheblues]

i dont think marty is a shredder

[manifestchrist]

@rickeygottheblues martys a lover not a shredder bro, hes the man, let him tickle the blues!

[mefmef21]

a lover not a shredder. i love that :')

[cronaldo1785]

this is the kind of solos that danny jones from mcfly does aren't they? like in I wanna hold you

[mad6986]

marty what pickups do you have on the sg?

i have an sg standard but they come with the humbucker pickups...yours sound and look great

[superflipperman]

they are humbuckers

[DarthKazi]

All SG's have "humbuckers". Gibsons generally use Gibson humbuckers.

Go with Seymour Duncans. Try a Pearly Gates or an SH-14 (Custom 5) in the bridge and a '59 SH-1 in the neck.

[fmplautus]

All SGs don't have humbuckers. The best sounding SGs have p90s, IMHO.

[DarthKazi]

Well... they weren't very popular and did not sell well at the time, so they aren't widely used. Sure, p-90's are great, but they did not make the SG the rock guitar it became. You can't get the kind of overdriven sound from a p-90, since it lacks the chunky midrange of a PAF-type 'pup.

[feriebiskopfjertnes]

If Marty has a SG special, I think they are the same pickups as the SG standard, but they don't have the shiny cover.

[simon4tw]

That's humbuckers too... just without the pickup covers.

[japhyryder1205]

they are humbuckers, they just dont have a flashy plate over the top.

[crippleskater22]

@mad6986 those are humbuckers.... look like seymour duncans but i cant say for sure. hope i helped

[sliderxd788]

shiby

[ISS5731]

awesomesauce

[ISS5731]

and do more shredding lessons por favor

[hellknight2610]

what wrong with the video quality ? :(

[TheGReaper1234]

it's processing

[fightingirishaholic]

@hellknight2610 youtube takes forever to process video quality

[huckandfriends1]

i have learned so much from these videos, thank you

[GaMeRnErDs44372]

Cool. :D
