  • This guy knows muic!

  • Howard Stern?

  • he holds his picking hand so wierd lol

  • Hi I'm Marty Friedman and I'm a faggot

  • betcha cant play this, but i hope you can, but dont try because you cant...

  • wonder if he ever wears a Megadeth t shirt

  • @loknloll I doubt it. It's like Mustaine wearing a Metallica shirt.

  • Repeat after me:

    "Hey i'm ... and I bet you I can't play that"

  • Hi i'm Marty Friedman and i betcha cant memorize a lick this long

  • some one call kirk hammett and dave mustaine.

  • Im so sick of seeing that six neck guitar moron in any guitar related video.

    Sucks ass big time!

  • @Account3of7 He's a comedian...

  • Marty is very positive and encouraging. "Bet you can't play this...but I hope you can." I like that.

  • AND AFTER THAT YOU GO....AND AFTER THAT YOU GO...

  • marty megadeth needs you

  • the sophisticated deadly attack of marty's sweep

  • "Betcha cant play this" great line, perfect... it just encourage you to pick your guitar and play that...

  • @elpactodejohnson1 Or just go "Okay, you're right - I can't play that. I give up. I'll just go kill myself now. Thank you very much." ))))

  • @king666nothing true story xD its inspiring to watch, but demotivating to ever touch my guitar again haha

  • 1:30 thought he was gonna say: it's a little bit out of your league.. haha

  • His playing is only trumped by the face he makes while playing it.

  • you sound good man thanks

  • I bet my hair could play this

  • marty is the man

  • marty bet you cant play with this !!!

  • I may not be able to play that, but I pick like that! :)

  • @kHeartgrand That's probably why you can't play that. )))

  • @king666nothing hahahahaha true :D :D :D :D this picking is in my opinion weird. eddie van halens too. cant understand that. but i ont know why so many are able to play that eargasmic with this kind of weird picking and the most newbies play like shit no matter how hard they try. maybe its the years. reb beach for the win

  • @c4tze Why did you start picking like that in the first place?

  • @king666nothing because i had no fucking idea how to play but got that awesome guitar, japan made dinky with original schaller floyd. and it looked much cooler when playing with the ankle instead of contracting fingers

  • @c4tze Well, maybe it's not to late to fix your picking technique. Players with weird picking style always run a risk of injuring their hand. Chronic tendinitis in your wrist is not fun at all. I had that 5 years ago. Now every time I pick up a guitar I have to force myself to go through a proper warmup exercises before I actually play.

    So if you have that kind of picking technique you're probably using wrong groups of muscles. Which can bring you trouble down the road.

  • @king666nothing thats the reason why i better play sloppy but with more drive and in a way i know i can earn progress

  • @c4tze Just be safe is all I'm saying.

  • @king666nothing well im doing it since 1990 now and the only thing that ever happened were two crashes with downhillbike/motorcycle and a smothered nerve because of medication. everything else couldnt be better and ive been always proud of my right hand. even if im contracting middle ring and pointy on the 2nd joint what should cause nerve hypersensitivity i think this makes me able to express much more with the right hand than a picking style like friendman or lynch for example where its hard

  • Great player and cool to watch at GIT '90. LOts of great players there then. Nice guy!

  • For such a great player he sure has an akward picking style.

  • Lol the best thing about Marty Friedman, " I bet u cant play this, but I hope u can". Thats a humble musician..

  • I'm Marty Friedman and I betcha can't pick like this...

  • Every time I watch Marty Friedman play, it makes me ashamed to pick in a normal manner.

  • escalas orientales D: alv

  • Marty would be the best damn teacher out there!

  • @Ninjaman091 Yeah, I wish he did another guitar clinic tour in the states. Missed the last one.

  • Got to love how nice Friedman is... "I hope you can though!"

  • Damn he picks funny.

  • Wow marty is awesome.. he has such class.

  • hahaha marty is awsome.....I bet you cant play this but i hope you can tho lol

  • Really awesome! If Broderick had a tenth of Marty's class he could consider himself lucky, but sadly that's not the case...

  • chris broderick is better

  • @metallicaddict13 No he isn't

  • This is the only Betcha Can't Play This lick I would ever use if I were soloing because it's the only one I've heard that is actually musical

  • pretty sweet

  • Can anyone tell me why he holds his pick like that? It resembles the way oud players play.

  • @UncleTito72 He broke his hand when he was a kid.

  • fucking faggot.

  • @TheSlevaslava you are

  • @jozza177 he was cool but wtf man seriously. And fuck you.

  • @TheSlevaslava Its not right to talk about yourself like that. Im sure your two dads are proud of your shitty guitar playing.

  • @noobster504 what ever if you defend this faggot after leaving megadeth go listen to his gay Japanese pop shit you fan boy. although i will always have respect for him he is fucking gay.

  • @TheSlevaslava marty's not gay, he left megadeth because dave was destroying himself

  • Weird Al called. Wants his hair back.

  • Do they actually show how to play "betcha can't play this"???

  • Jason Lives!

    

  • And I think I'll TRY to play it slow..hah

  • WHY THE HELL WOULD I WANT TO PLAY THAT?

  • he should've just played Tornado of Souls solo.

  • "what that is basically is"....yeah way to loosely use the word basically lol xD

  • he seems a little lack luster in this video compared to his usual self. nice lick though.

  • I bet if I got high enough, I could at least *think* I was playing this.

  • I bet he'd be an amazing guitar teacher.

  • wow he has no ego at all :)

  • Ugh... Marty what happened there? This is shit compared to the melodic, exotic and oriental runs that you used to compose

  • He looks a lot better with a jackson!

  • he's the only guy nice enough to give us a "hope you can, though"

  • hahaahahhaa I can play that!

    no i cant T_T

  • Obviously, this is constructed wonderfully musically, but perhaps not so hard technically. It is more the composition as a whole that is great in here.

  • Nice face at 2:12 - 2:13!

    Actually... now that I think of it he looks a lot like famous trash movie director Tommy Wiseau from "The Room"! (/watch?v=Plz-bhcHryc&feature=­related)

  • He has some good choice of notes, but not really any technique. I'd rather try to play Broderick's Betcha can't play.

  • @wizardofmadness It seems you've never listened to Cacophony. Look up "Images".

  • Two things I think everytime I see him. First he is the ultimate guitarist and second ,how the hell he's picking notes?!

  • meh, broderick's is a lot harder

  • @skatefallen15 Not quite

  • yeh marty friedman way to embarress your self, but guys remember, hes the reason why megadeth became harmonized so what do you guys expect?

  • in 2:12 it seems like he jizzed his pants xD

  • Marty is a fucking god...and seems like such a chill dude, too \m/

  • Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream... some coffee and a little cream... love to ride my bike and take a hike, fly a kite and burn some kittens...

  • Betcha cant play this... ur arm needs to bend to a certain angle to strum..in order to achieve Marty-ism.

  • That looks like a solo taken from a song !

  • "I bet you can't play this, hope you can tho"

    What a gentleman!

  • oh God...i love the way he uses the pick...it's a little wierd...like downstroking all the time in fast forward xD

  • he kicks ass and then hes polite about it.

  • I love this man, but that picking hand...

  • HA! I can play it. Actually, I can play it twice as fast and I've only watched the video twice. I bet if I practiced it for a few more minutes I could do it three times as fast. I'm sorry. I lied. I couldn't play it at all. I just wanted everyone to be impressed and like me for who I am.

  • @SilenceSyndicate Nah, we all hate you now. )))))

  • @SilenceSyndicate good troll :D

  • @getsuga987 I wasn't trolling. I would never be able to play this in a million years. Marty is the man!

  • @SilenceSyndicate oh i mean trolling as like a fake troll.And yes mr friedman is the MAN period

  • @SilenceSyndicate Personally i love you. FOR WHO YOU ARE>

  • @SilenceSyndicate

    BETCHA CANT BE MORE OF A LIAR!!! lol!!

  • His head is enormous!!

  • I love how he just goes right into explaining it like it was nothing. Well, it was nothing... for him anyway XD

  • No Marty, i cannot play that, thanks for making me realize that i suck :P

  • I like how he said "I hope you can"...Gives me some mofuckin inspration to try that shit!

  • You would be right if you bet I couldn't play that. : (

  • I counted, he only used his pinky four times. He played like a hundred notes and only used his pinky FOUR times. It's insanity. Marty rulz.

  • yes i will learn this riff just as soon as i finish my 'in flames' song, artifacts of the black rain...

  • "i heard speed metal so i bet it sucks i heard marty friedmans in it so i bet it sucks. nobody gives a fuck about him either way as a singer or a guitarist."

    First of all, what do you mean by "speed metal" and how could Marty be "in it"???

    Second, Marty never sang in any band.

    So obviously you're fucking clueless, therefore no one takes you seriously. Why don't you grow up and listen to metal music (and I hope you do know that Avenged Shithole is not a metal band). Good luck bitch.

  • @king666nothing amen brother

  • @king666nothing avenged isnt a metal band? whats wrong with you. yeah theyre not the greatest metal band, yeah theyre not crazy, but their still metal. slipknot is a metal band too. like or not, they are. quit bringing those bands up when its not needed. its turning into a joke. i go to a pantera video, BAM, 2 idiots arguing about avenged sevenfold. i go to a slayer video, BAM 2 dumb asses arguing about slipknot. just drop it! its a joke now. both are great bands

  • @837IronMaiden Grow the fuck up dude. While I agree with you about Slipknot being metal, I just cannot say the same about Avenged Sevenfold. They're nothing more but a trend that will be gone soon - it's just that 12 year old douchebags think it's in vogue to like this band right now. There has been shitload of bands like that and they're very easy to recognize. You have every right to disagree with me, but that's just my opinion and I'm gonna stand by it.

  • @king666nothing hey man, i dont need someone like you to tell me to grow up. and i dont even listen to avenged much anymore. in my opinion, the new album wasnt that great. they have gone into a trend. which is awful because when they ddid City of Evil, it was a great metal album. then they got mainstream and arent as good. you can like avenged or not, i dont care. but in my mind, they were a good metal band. now theyre mainstream metal

  • @king666nothing i dont actuly mind who your talking to, but u can't say that a7x are shit and tell them to grow up.. people who call other bands shit need to grow up themselves, let people have their own taste in music. they dont have to listen to what you listen to.

  • @CODCODGUY Yo momma!

    How's that for grown up? LOL ))))

  • @king666nothing pretty pathetic actualy.

  • GUYS, FUCK THIS DOUCHE alecxg UP VERBALLY.

    Just read his last comment.

  • his picking style is so weird ha. the only picking style thats weird that seems to be any good is the way synyster gates holds his pick hah

  • @alecxg Get the fuck out of here with your Avenged Sevenfold shit. You're a pathetic joke.

  • @king666nothing fuck you dude! avenged sevenfold is way better band then megadeth will ever be megadeth fucking sucks and is NO were nere avenged sevenfolds talents and skills so your pathetic and marty friedman is not even close to being as good as synyster.

  • @alecxg

    You have to be the most ignorant piece of shit I have ever encountered on Youtube. Avenged Sevenfold better than Megadeth? They have way better talent? You're mom must have been on crack rocks when she carried you. Any Megadeth member puts that shitty band to shame..

  • @mxabel92 man your a retard. fucking dave mustaine has to be the shittiest singer out there shadows is a badass singer and synyster is way better than dave and zackys good at most of it and johnny christ is way the fuck better than whoever plays bass for that shitty band. and the REV fucking made megadeths drummer look like he didnt know anything.

  • @alecxg Dude, you're never going to win this argument with your pathetic "evidence".

  • @alecxg

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA did you honestly just say that the rev was better than Gar Samuelson and Nick Menza? That has to be the funniest shit I've heard all month. look your just gettin into this whole posthumous praise for Rev cause he's dead, even though he wasn't amazing or anything. the exact same thing happened to Kurt Cobain, Randy Rhoads, Cliff Burton, etc...and to say that Zacky and Synester are better than Dave ellefson or any guitarist in megadeth is fuckin hilarious.

  • @walshy0001 Xactly. )))) This kid is just fucking begging for "holy war" of comments.

    P.S. You forgot Dimebag in your list of people.

  • @walshy0001 hahah your just some old fucker that doesnt know good music and the other guy that commented on this is a retard to cause both you probably both think that dave mustaine is a good singer. Kurt Cobain sucks cock to, Randy Rhoads was good though. and no im not just praising him cause hes dead. hes way the fuck better that megacocks drummer. Synysters better than any of the guitarist that have been in megadeth except for chris. all the other ones suck.

  • @alecxg

    Dave Ellefson is a great bassist, you're probably too ignorant to listen to any of there songs for the fear that you will find out that it kicks the shit out of avenged sevenfold. Dave Mustaine is singing and playing guitar (oh yea he is also a RHYTHM player),

  • @mxabel92 thats more than what m shadows can do. Chris Broderick is a machine and beats the shit out of synyster. Hell any previous Megadeth guitarist does. Same with the drummer, although the rev is a very good drummer.

    You dont even know the members of Megadeth you dumb twat

  • @mxabel92 i see you commented on your own thing probably goint towards me. ok i completely forgot that chris broderick was the lead guitar player cause hes fucking beast but there both good as hell. the rev was a fucking badass he played drums and sang at the same time sometimes. no not really i couldnt care less except for chris broderick they could be all good musicians but the main thing i hate about megadeth is how dave mustaine sings i just cant stand it.

  • @alecxg At least Megadeth makes good music, unlike your avenged sevenfold shit.

  • @mxabel92 no i hear them cause my friend listens to them and i figured out that they suck cock. either way he fucking sucks especially at singing zacky might not know about as much shit as him theory wise but hes a better guitarist with style and sound.

  • @alecxg

    I'm 16 years old, so that "your older" crap won't work on me. and your exaggerating the fuck out of it, you act like I only listen to Megadeth. My Musical tastes range from Tech Death metal to Flamenco and Jazz, so shut up. and seriously, go listen to fucking anything off of speed metal symphony by cacophony (which marty friedman was in) or any of Chris Poland's work in OHM. btw, I could give a shit about Dave, he's only a rythym player. but your absolutely fucking retarded.

  • @walshy0001 still works cause you only than me by just a little bit. no i dont think you only listen to them its just they suck cock completely. my range range a whole shitload to you making it seem like i only listen to avenged sevenfold. i heard speed metal so i bet it sucks i heard marty friedmans in it so i bet it sucks. nobody gives a fuck about him either way as a singer or a guitarist. but im not because saying megadeth is better than avenged sevenfold is just a disgrace against A7X.

  • @alecxg Look kid, youre an idiot. I have no idea why youre comparing Megadeth to A7X. Marty doesnt even play for Megadeth now, and he hasnt for years.

    Yes, Syn is a good player. However, hes got nothin on Marty. This guy is a shred monster. Syn writes the same solos over and over, and their newest album was the biggest letdown of the year.

    PS- The rev has nothin on Megadeths drummer. Kinda hard to drum when youre six feet under LOL

  • @cipher619 im not a kid im about to be 16 in a couple of months. because A7X is way better than megadeth will ever be. and i know he hasnt been. and every megadeth album is a letdown i always think they might have gotten a little better but i always end up being wrong about that. PS- your just a dick with no respect for a good musician. and even though hes dead mike portnoy beats the shit out of megadeths drummer to.

  • @alecxg Youre still in high school, and youre not even old enough to have a drivers license. Youre a kid.

    Explain to me then how Megadeth is still insanely successful after almost 30 years? A7X was a one hit wonder of sorts. City of Evil was awesome. Their self titled and Nightmare were both utter shit, and everything prior to CoE was also shit. Its kids like you that are killing the metal genre. The "best" bands are seldom as awesome as you make them out to be.

  • @cipher619 Dont get me wrong, I listen to a lot of newer bands too (including bands youve probably never heard of), but most of you wouldnt know good metal if it butt fucked you without any lube

  • @cipher619 so what i dont even know how i commented on your thing i thought i was still talking to king666nothing so watever. yeah City of Evil, Self titled and nightmare are good. Nightmare is not nearly wat i was expecting but watever. but yeah i dont sounding the seventh trumpet or waking the fallen much either. dude you guys are all stupid its not the like A7X is the only band i listen to its my favorite band yes but i listen to trivium, nevermore, dream theater, BFMV, slipknot Etc. so fuk u

  • @alecxg Well Trivium is pretty much shit, and Bullets new album was rehashes of old songs, so I lost a lot of respect for them. Dream Theater doesnt have a drummer right now cuz Portnoy left (and he was the best part of the band). Im surprised you honestly listen to Nevermore and then rant about how awesome Syn is. Jeff Loomis > Syn every fucking day of every fucking week. Jeff is a guitar God, as is Marty. Syn is just... There. Good, but not THAT good

  • @cipher619 i have to say yes i know most of trivium songs are shit but some i do actually like but most i dont. but the musicians are good. Yeah i know i dont listen to them that much. yeah Mike Portnoy left and they said hes going to join A7X and john petricci and john myung are both badass. yeah i know jeff loomis is better than synyster but i just like the way A7X does everything so i dont really give a fuck who you like. A7X will always be my favorite band. jeff is god and marty is not.

  • @alecxg Well I appreciate you proving my point that you kids dont know jack shit about metal. And unless you play guitar, you dont have the authority to make calls on whos a guitar god, and who isnt, and somehow I doubt you do. Because if you did, youd know that Marty is an absolute monster.

    So until you get a clue, shut up :D

  • @cipher619 yeah most kids dont know shit. and yeah fuck you i play guitar for one if i didnt i wouldnt be watching this video. Not everyone likes the same person. i think marty can blow me just like my dad says santana can blow him and yes my dad plays bass not guitar hes a professional bassist so suck a cock and dont say anything. so until you know that facts get a life. :D

  • @alecxg LOL "Get a life" says the kid who has yet to graduate high school XD. Thats like being told "You dont know anything" by a third grader. Apparently your dad doesnt know shit either, so its easy to see where you get your idiocy from. Your dads a bass player, good for him. But a bass player who says SANTANA can blow him? LMFAO. Being "professional" means you get paid. It has nothing whatsoever to do with how good (or in this case, how bad) you are

  • @alecxg Until you recognize and acknowledge the masters, youre going to suck ass. Im not saying you have to LIKE the masters, but youre an idiot if you cant at least acknowledge them.

  • @cipher619 see all one of you dumbasses had to say was that. hes good but i dont consider him a master jeff is still the master of masters. i acknowledge he is really really good but i hate his style and never will like it.

  • @alecxg This video doesnt really show Marty's style all that well. You should take a look at his solo album "Loudspeaker" if ya get the chance. Its just kickass guitar playin from start to end. If ya get the chance anyway.

  • @cipher619 alright i look at it. ill see if i like it anymore. i just wasnt even gonna listen to that other guy because i was just saying my opinion about something and then he tells me right off the bat that im a dumbass for liking a7x so yeah lol ill check it out and see if i like it.

  • @alecxg Well Im glad to see youre still fairly open minded. Its an improvement from most lol. The tracks Id say you should check out first are "Elixir" and "Stigmata Addiction"

  • @cipher619 yeah man lol i listened to stigmata addiction i really liked it, it was a badass song! lol

  • @alecxg You have seen the light!!! Victory is ours this day! Lol Glad to hear you liked it man

  • @alecxg Not only you're a dumbass for liking a7x, you're also a fag with no taste in music whatsoever. Wipe synister gates' ass-juice off your face. Even worst Megadeth song (if such exists) is far more superior to the best a7x song (if such exists).

  • @alecxg

    Dude, you from the same planet and reality as the rest of us?? Even if you don't appreciate Megadeth (or in this case Marty), you still have to acknowledge his awesome skill and everything he accomplished as a musician. By the time you reached his level, come back. Else, go jerk of on your A7X crap.....

  • Hey this is Marty Friedman and I make you look pretty odd with my skills.

  • those that try to play this:your head will explode and hands with catch fire

  • What a nice guy, right? Has anyone else ever really been in our corner for the 'Betcha Can't Play This's?

  • What a nice guy, right? Has anyone else ever really been in our corner for the 'Betcha Can't Play This's?

  • 00:18

    "...now what that is, basically, is..uh....me making your mom's vag moist through my guitar licks"

    Oh Marty! So modest and yet so kick ass.

  • isn't the fretting hand more important than the picking? call me old fashion but when I was a youngster it didn't matter how it was done as long as it's done right.

  • PRS Guitars for the fucking win...

  • Officially the world's awesomest Jew -suck it Einstein

  • @Benderillo1996 bahahaha xD

  • Holy fuck. That is on big head. He looks like a puppet or somn.

  • @skatefallen15 thanks bro ill check it out lol

  • No one beat me up but i have heard of him before just never seen him but he is awesome i can play this easily but maybe this isnt his best work someone wanna tell me about any of his good songs?? Like i said dont beat me up lmao

  • @thatboimanny

    well Tornado of Souls is pretty incredible in my opinion. Just listen to Megadeth and whenever you hear one of the really, really good solos, it's probably Marty's lol

  • @thatboimanny check out basically any of the cacohpony cds or scenes and a few others

  • some1 who picks "weird" is sum1 who picks to their own disadvantage. a comfortable picking hand, is a correct picking hand.
