Lead Guitar Soloing Lesson - intermediate and advanced - blues rock Marty Schwartz

[tubbz12341]

i cant thank marty enough i love how this guy takes the time to show u things step by step to explain it it rlly helps iv learned so many songs from his vids

[kassar117]

this video is gold

[MrSamster2000]

Awesome lesson, Marty. I have to lay down a show closing solo for "Purple Rain" - Prince, any lick suggestions?

[Chad5039]

Very cool, but realize that if you want to follow Marty, you have to tune down 1/2 step. E to E flat. Then you can jam with Marty. Not sure why he didn't tell us that. Marty?

[MrDiddy71]

@Chad5039 he did

[AllOfUsLoveSpam]

@Chad5039

He does tell us.

[skaterunknown4ever]

The first time I watched a Marty Schwartz lesson was ages ago. And, yeah he has helped me. But to be honest, every time I watch a new lesson I keep thinking "I suck" I just think I cant be able to play guitar like a pro by just watching lessons...

[MrShnazyShnazz]

i just realized that im alot worse than i thought i was

[matthewthejugglersa]

marty can you teach some cool wah solo licks

[darkroomxvii]

im at that stage where beginner blues lessons are too easy and the more advanced stuff is really difficult

[BrowneSound]

Just watching this video has made me a better player. Thank you! Every other video I looked at was either way too basic or advanced. This was perfect!

[Howdidyoudie]

I almost fell asleep during the 5:09 jam ... It sounds so much better than the chewed up noise I've been producing.

[TheDarkelmo96]

Where the hell do you get an SG like that?!?!

[DRGK9]

@TheDarkelmo96 calm down he just added a few upgrades

[hvince67]

That was so great. Great ideas there!

[timmerdonkey]

thanks, ate that up like christmas dinner

[tukun3104]

hey marty can u make a video on how to play TENDER SURRENDER by Steve Vai?

[pigjubby1]

Sweet SG. Nice!

[LiveFromNeptune]

If you're contemplating buying ANYTHING from Marty, my suggestion is that you DO IT immediately. I bought the "Solo/Lead Techniques" DVD and learned more in a few months than I did from any teacher EVER. I've been wanting to jam solos since I was 14 years old, and now I finally can thanks to Marty.

[thehobbit1116]

My earbud fell out at 0:13-0:20. Did I miss anything?

[echovince]

Thank you Jesus

[Vemaxer]

Marty, what do you use to record your own melodies at 05:12 so you can solo to this?

[willh735]

Awesome stuff very similar to Layla by Eric Clapton (I think maybe its Deric & the Dominios )

[razabb99]

this is awesome. Great way to get out of the pentatonic rut. I've looked at dozens of videos to find a way out and none were as easy to follow as Marty's. i can now connect the boxes and move up and down the neck (at least on e and B strings for now). i just need to sit down and figure out how to do it on the other strings.Thanks Marty. keep them coming.

[jakeboob]

im pretty intermediate, and maybe I'm just out of it this morning, but this was fast and not as informative as others. :( i just had to look at the video over and over and over to get the notes. Yeah i could of look up all positions of minor pent. but. I'm just sayin y'all

[umpalumpier]

Damn, just noticed that you kind of look like an older Frodo :O

I'll be your sincere online apprentice for ever! :D

[mtflyer05]

Do you have Droid apps?

[GUMANKKK]

Отличный урок спасибо Марти!

[andreastoh]

@italoco its drop half tuning

[iMushCake]

Eh. can we trade guitars? Lmao.

[italoco]

please anybody can tell me, if the tune is standart tune? please!, thnks

[xk1llaseasonx]

MARTY FOR PRESIDENT!

[codica666]

I have to say this....Marty: you are AWESOME. This is an absolutely fanstastic lesson. There's many great players out there but very few are at the same time good teachers. You definitely are great at both. Thank you VERY MUCH.

[AView336]

Cheese and Rice..this video makes me realize how bad I suck as a guitar player

[sniperfxxx]

@AView336

me too!!!!!

[LBCDan]

Come to netherlands. hehe

[RandyPeter216]

I've got an Epiphone SG special (I'm a broke little bugger) But anyways anyone know if I could fit Gibson SG pickups on it?

[theredgrape]

@RandyPeter216 yes they will fit, but you may need to get different screws to mount them in the pickup rings. the spring that you have will probably work, but keep that in mind as well. most guitar shops have pickup mounting hardware available as well.

[RandyPeter216]

@theredgrape Thx alot man, all the fourms I checked just told me upgrade to G-310, or other Epiphone pickup but I Don't like how crunchy they are.

[khm3r4luv2]

Thank you, sir.

[Siquartolamuerto]

Марти, ты лучший!!!

[xk1llaseasonx]

awesome

[kassar117]

Without your lessons, Marty, I would have probably quit guitar or be half as good as i am now. Thank You so much man.

[TomJuckes96]

Im not bad at guitar, but if i could pick one up and play like you did at the start, holy fudge balls, id be a happy mo fo :D

[woolffdale]

Marty tell me please what strings are you using!???

[JakekaJ14]

Marty, can you keep going with these lessons till you cover the neck on all 6 strings?

I'd could really use those lessons, thanks.

P.S.

This vid makes me smile. :D

[Ebeet0FAN]

Whohu nice lesson we´ve got here :D

[ninjachoptotheface]

Marty, youre amazing!

[JoeRodriguez20]

I enjoy how he nods his head when he gets inspirated at 0:36 , 'cause so do I

[bubbayork]

the advice of usen 1 or 2 strings at a time REALLY helps u breakdown leads more simply. then once u get those 2 strings memorized, u can move ur way up to the 3rd string. so on and so forth... VERY GOOD ADVICE... i dig it bro

[SG9097]

Why is this guy not famous yet??



[twst1]

@SG9097 he seems pretty well known and respected in this realm, but yeah....I've wondered myself if someones gonna pick him up for a tour et.al.

[kuku2297]

what backing track is it marty?

[Garrett9339]

@kuku2297 I think he is. The Red Sox wanted to meet him.

[twst1]

@kuku2297 sounds like he's just playing over a loop

[gmlamr]

one of your tip top lessons since the legendary start up lessons with rockongoodpeople thanks so much

[SpritelyOtay]

One of your best vids yet. Thanks

[flogz23]

alright who were the idiots that disliked this?

[twst1]

@flogz23 neo-classical shredders?

[bermsky]

Ah, Marty can you move your fingers a little faster?

[The12Child]

what... effect is that?

[slaam01]

fuck ur good

[nemoskim123]

IF I SAW MARTY IN PUBLIC I WOULD RUN UP TO HIM AND SAY CAN I HAVE YOU AUTOGRAPH

[Efics1]

Nice! Haven't seen an intermediate/advanced lesson in a while. Right up my alley!

[crayyawn]

that looping pedal thing seems awesome! how much does one of those run? i would love to be able to layer stuff and create songs like that so spontaneously and jam out

[Poenut]

I drool over that guitar EVERY time. My God, what a beauty.

[magicalgamezz766]

i have been playing acoustic guitar for a bit now (about 7 months) and i want to get an electric, what is a good entry level guitar and amp?

[TreyarchIsGay]

@magicalgamezz766 epiphone les paul or sg or a fender mexican strat... NOTHING SQUIER

[futurerockstar09]

@magicalgamezz766 depends what type of music. i have a epiphone les paul special II and peavey vypyr 15 and that works fine for me :-)

[OllieCammell]

@magicalgamezz766 man plenty of videos with guidelines for this sort of stuff :) just give it a search!

[kassemir]

Thanks, this lesson was really good and helpful and as always it gave me the tools to be more creative in my playing. Thanks Marty!!

Oh, and that was a pretty cool SG, I especially liked the back plate that black and grey blended looked really cool! :-)

[selfrob]

Another awesome lesson from Marty! Thanks again Marty for sharing.

[poojab999]

I'm going to stop wearing pants while watching these videos.

[tencr4z]

so simple and obvious but SOO helpful!

[StevenVtheguitarman]

Your one of my favorite guitrists Marty, Keep up the amazing work bro.

[mikeb929man1]

@ihaveaverybadcold

Practice a lot with jam tracks, it's very helpful.

[bondstreet15]

very helpful- never looked at it that way- awesome!

[aerosmith1501]

@ihaveaverybadcold

I have that problem too, my improvising sucks and I don't know how to go about fixing it. Does anyone know if Marty has a DVD lesson on it, cause I will be it in a secons

[aerosmith1501]

Hey Marty, I really want to start playing these solos and my fingers are fast enough but I can't get my picking hand to go fast or accurate enough to play the solos. Can you please do just one long video on how to speed up your picking for solos.

Thumbs up so Marty can see this

[rickneibauer1]

@aerosmith1501 Play everyday! I also suggest coming up with a pattern or finding one on the internet and trying to gradually gain speed as you become more comfortable with it. Don't play sloppy though!!! You will develop bad habits! Be honest with yourself as to whether or not what you are playing sounds ok or REALLY GOOD! The "1234" exercise helps develop speed as well, but is mindless and musical. It helped me develop my alternate picking when I was first starting. Play music though!!!!

[rickneibauer1]

@aerosmith1501 the exercise is unmusical is what i meant to say in my last reply.

[Patinator37]

the intro is just kickass >.<

[malgwash]

you can also mix it with a jimi hendrix lick, it would break the joe satriani vibe and make it more of a blues thingy

[TheBassioso]

Great as allways :)

[jamesteek03]

Not only a great lesson, but you're getting a great tone as well. What're you playing through?

[75SilentWarrior]

@jamesteek03 Divided by 13 cj11.

[elroi15100]

[mkunanoumoussk8r]

[KirkHammettVarma666]

[alddeanov]

[catweasel457]

[falcorne019]

[catweasel457]

@falcorne019 right. the other one is a worn brown one.

[aworld4sale]

CRAZY MARTY, at the end of intro!!!! Marty the BEST !!

[Pastoullio]

[ihaveaverybadcold]

hey marty whats wrong with me....i cant play lead for shit....i can play scales all day long and i know a few licks....but i cant make anything up ....drives me nuts

[amihyvaknin]

hey marty , is there a minor pentatonic extended rooted on the 5th string ?

[micks4522]

You sir are awesome. I haven't found a good teacher yet. I learned pentatonic scaling in 2hrs... Now I'm learning this

[termite289]

that was freaking awesome.

[Crow2100]

YES. Thanks for the tips Mart, like all the other people on here (who are cool as hell for learning from you) you show us so much in your videos, more than any other "teachers" on youtube. Keep it up and I look forward to maybe another Blues Domination "2" DVD set, haha. Unless there is one already and I failed to realize it? Anyway, rock on my blues brotha!

[masteratemu]

ur really good man thanksalot for all ur videos specially those about soloing they help me out with the afterlife solo

[lumwad]

Marty - I'm in awe..............Your lessons and just noodling around are better then most of the music out there today.

[manish8484]

nice riff .... bluezzzzzzzzzzzzy

[BadBluesman887]

Marty has definitely been to the crossroads! Fn awesome marty!

[mundane90]

@BadBluesman887 yeaH man

[stockpiledmemory]

what a beast

[FolieAduexU]

Youre great Marty, definitively good enough to become a professional. And your ability to teach is incredible, you are one of the most patient teachers Ive seen. Thank you for everything, and just like @VicRoseMusic said, if I make it big, you will get a check in the mail.

[roccckkerrr]

hey marty, ive followed your lessons since you first appeared with david talb on the rockongoodpeople channel, and its safe to say you have far outdone him. youve even got a handful of apps on the app store! marty's taking over the world.

[VicRoseMusic]

@roccckkerrr yeah I started w/ Taub too...I mean nothing against Taub...he's great for absolute beginners. But Marty is all flavor! haha

[theoriginalbroski]

marty you really inspire me thank you for all that you do

[sk8erriot]

amazing had no idea you can rock just one string like that xD

[VicRoseMusic]

Man Marty, if I ever get big I'm gonna have to send you a lump sum for all these awesome lessons that you provide to people for free. What a guy! Like seriously...I start playing a mere 2 years ago and am where I am thanks to guys like Marty.

[GUS1191]

That´s true my friend. Marty is giving a lot to everybody for free. And he is a very good teacher !

[twst1]

@VicRoseMusic so...you got any videos up where we can track your progress? Of course, i could just look at your page, but i'm much too lazy

[certifiedbomber]

can you do videos of you just playing and not teaching anything please. i really enjoy hearing you play!!

[LeonSam87]

@certifiedbomber /watch?v=D5fKux9-Vzk :D

[ihaveaverybadcold]

[TheCrownMaster]

@certifiedbomber He has such videos, but they're a few. Search in his uploads
