Just for the beginning quote, it's not his signature KE-1MF.
1. The KE-1 had his signature at the top, this just says "Made In USA" so it's just a custom for him.
2. The KE-1MF had gold hardware, and a gold signature under the lacquer/on the paint of the body, as a limited run for "Musicians Friend." They also had a KV-1MF.
Marty is amazing because its not always about speed, but not always about not playing slow either. Its not about playing exotic scales vs. your standard 7 tone scales. Its not about sweeping vs. alternate or economy picking or any of all that bs everyone argues about! Being well rounded is key!
What makes a good guitar player is a COMBINATION of all of these!!!
another underrated example of masterclass guitar wizardy is Rusty Cooley, known for his 7 string sweep picking, he is unbelievably fast, however he learned how to play fast (like Marty) from classical and jazz, Marty Friedman is still to this day one of my favourite guitarists of all time and forever will be for his very diverse style of playing!Rock On Marty!!!!!
@IsKeLeToR ...you're right...but there are guitar players that they can play very faster and have emotion on each song they play....just see Yngwie, he is a perfect example...nice solo Marty by the way
his solo are boring...juz like he did in hangar 18 not suitable with the band "MEGADETH" thrash metal is about the speed...hardcore punk..so play it more devilish marty
@heromestipelaq obviously your a dumb shit. you dont have to play fast to be good at guitar. in fact, if all you do is shred super fast then knowans going to like you very much. i bet your solo's sound like me taking a shit after i eat your moms pussy. go kill yourself you waste of cum your dad squirted out. Marty friedman's solo's are not boring. their very exotic, amazing, different, technicly wrong but so right. go fuck yourself.
@IsKeLeToR no he left megadeth cause he didnt feel that he was developing himself like a musician.And then he had an interview about this and he added that the other reason was cause he wanted more agresion in megadeth's music.He couldnt do it so he decided to go.And the other thing is that he was tired of playing metal all the time so i think that is ok what he have done i would do the same(i don't mean that i don't like megadeth actually is my favourite band and it was better with him)
@MrDarkess actually, it was the opposite. Dave said "marty, we should get back to our roots" and marty said he wasn't into playing that style anymore.
I know you said he was a genius, and I agree. From hearing the song and reading the comment it sounded like you were complaining about the speed because he usually plays faster.
ye he left when mustain said they were going back to being thrash metal and stuff. and he didn't think he could evolve as a musician any more in megadeth. but i have heard a few reasons why he left megadeth. either way he seems to have done better now that he isn't in megadeth - he is huge in japan
He uses the JB pickup from Seymour Duncan. It has a really awesome sound. It's most pronounced on Countdown to Extinction and on...also on a couple of his solo albums. I don't know if he still uses them or not, his newest albums sound like he's using something else.
haha yeah marty friedmen is insane. i wouldnt say hes my inspiration because i dont study him too much but hes definatly amazing. im more influenced by randy rhoads
according to an interview he left because he got tired of playing that kind of Metal. If you listen to his solo albums you notice he's kinda softer now, but not less awesome! :)
Dave seems pretty cool, but since i've never met the guy for real it's impossible for me to tell :P
Yer I think your right at heart Friedman is more of a exotic guitarist wanting to encapulate the sounds of Enka music in his guitar playing ... then he brought that influence to metal!
Marty definately has some metal and neoclassical metal influence. It's undeniably. His earliest successes were Cacophony and Megadeth - how could he exist without metal? It's not the entirety of his playing, but I consider him a metal guitarist because it's the simplest term for adequately describing his style, even if it does use strange phrasing.
He said in a interview that he left the metal beocuse he wanted to develop himself as a guitarist and he also said that he thinks he plays better rock than metal \(^^)/ xD
mm sometimes but he likes play in a emotional way (watever kind music), and that's why I like him very much =), I dont care about metal or rock, I just love his guitar. When he played also with jason becker was amazing, I like this kind of metal they played like Black cat, Concerto,or very emotional things like Jewel. The best duo for ever.
0_o, I cant buy Marty's cds in my country =(, there is no one =(. But I gonna buy them by Ebay \(^.^)/
Id like to buy a dvd with one of his concerts, however there is no one =(.mmm I think that this year was released a dvd from a concert in japan but I dont know if that is true or if that was just released in japan...
probably just released in japan cause i have never seen it anywhere. im in canada and its even hard to find marty friedman albums here. the one i bought was the last one at the store and i never saw any others.
\(^.^)/ I was right, watch?v=a9fhCu5JkZ0&feature=related
I have been realesed a concert dvd, however I dont know if it is avaliable =(.
And yeah is a pitty that great musicians like marty and many others like Richie Kotzen, Greg Howe, Frank Gambale, Andy Timmons, etc. dont have the enough atention from the public in general =(. People usually listen music just to dance or if it sounds catchy, I dont know...
Marty and Chris Poland (original guitarist for megadeth) need to do a record together but then again the world might end if they did...
