[Kin2000Foods]

Over the Cliff! yea!

[SuperMinor7]

Cool Tutorial ,Marty:)

[MainTightSqueeze]

Tip: small gauge strings and a little bit of luck.

[ThomasDeLello]

Hay... Smarty Warts...!

[TerrorAlertDaKillah]

come on guys the bend isn't that hard.. *string snaps and cuts my jugular*

[HYfilms]

My e snapped before the lesson even started (AKA at 1:40 right when he said make sure you have fresh strings)

[paqman78]

I've been able to do that bend on a fixed bridge guitar (i.e. Les Paul).  But I can't seem to do it on my strat for some reason.

[kaijetucker]

I'm going to buy more strings before trying this

[bloggyloggydog]

Kinda laughed at the topcomments until my own e-string broke :D

[kokopilko]

0:24

That bend.. how is it possible? :O

[gitaarmartin]

@kokopilko superpowers ;)

[CrysisEditorHelper]

i got the same guitar :) in cherry red :)

[Oldspirit189]

THIS GUY IS A FUCKIN JOKE

[WovenUnicornSweater]

@Oldspirit189 how is that...

[MrJEZBO]

dude your my hero, never leave!

[MrJackandEmily]

Ive never broken a string... Am I doing it wrong?

[tedrobcool]

stop being noobs, and l2bend

[0pipin0]

my E string its all rigth, but i have to g o to a hotpital to re-atached the tip of mi finger

[samnovak100]

@0pipin0 pull an SRV and super-glue the callous back on

[happyduck70]

NOOOO MY E-STRING

[spenc193]

On these blues videos, are you just plugged straight into the amp? If so, what are your amp settings? Thanks man. And your vids are great.

[ikwees]

LOL i broke my e string doing this xD

[Sersiewersie]

i cant bend my string that far with my guitar ;c

[bbnatedogg]

Get some thicker strings fools. I play 12's and never snap my high E on a minor third bend unless the strings are old. Man up bitches.

[AndrewTunes]

yes its not require super power to bend like that.. it required many many e strings..:D

[Polskijay]

There goes my E string......Ping !!!!



[Wyldelyfe]

In all honesty, that 12th fret bend is one of BB Kings trademark bends, it has little to do with John Mayer.

[idahoMW]

It don't bend that far.

Okay it probably does, but my eye started to flinch at the thought.

[cchavez1000able]

Can someone please tell me what the back tracking in the begining is called

[grabersm]

@cchavez1000able thats just a generic 12 bar blues pattern marty recorded using his loop pedal.

[wak159]

soon the world will sound like marty

[110924]

exuse me, did he say fuck face:P

[jimmyschot]

@110924 Funk face

[JoshRoberts93]

yeah, that's my girlfriend's dad's high e string gone too... fuck.

[UKToneKing]

Hey Marty. Do U think the HRDx is as good sounding as the deluxe reverb, I know U use the Deluxe reverb, so try and have an open minded opinion

[UKToneKing]

Hey Marty. Does John Mayer use a hot rod deluxe as well

[SpeedSketch]

So how do you know which notes are in your scale when you go to different areas of the neck? I'm somewhat confined to one position

[SamdeWr]

My high e just snapped...

[itsmontismusic]

@SamdeWr Ouch! Don't you hate that! Wonder how old your strings are and in what condition. Is it time to replace your strings for new ones?

[shakatakshak]

:( me too lol

[falconer333]

LOL worst Nigel impression ever.

[noaOFC]

aaaaaw! the string popped :c

[juanpy71]

muy buen lick!!

[SlimNeedle]

I wanna go "over the cliff"

[superpes20]

What's the song at 0:14 (finish at 0:30)???

[mjguitar6132]

@superpes20 Sounds liek a basic blues shuffle with him improvising. Am I right?

[mbmusickids]

love it

[OddHenrikBrekke]

you again! -.-

[MultiShades]

I just want a black girl--

[Dogheadj]

@MultiShades Brown Sugar is GOOD, and I ain't lyin. I'm also a white boy. Brown Sugar is a whole lot more loyal; a whlole lot more loving; and a whole lot more accepting (of the racial differences wiseguy) .

I'll take a beautiful, loyal, down home black girl anyday than I'll take a vanilla, no experience, blonde flufff head that don't know shit from shinola before I surreneder my shoes under someones's bed.

Maybe got carried away. Maybe I don't care. Maybe the "Rent's Too Damn High".

[UKToneKing]

@Dogheadj lol maybe U would take anything that is offered 

[Dogheadj]

@UKToneKing Depends on how much I had to drink that night, UK. However, I can say with great pride, that I've never woke up with a butt ugly woman. No, sir. I make sure they leave before I even fall asleep. LOL

[thebugle2]

and there goes me f#%kin' e string......!

[UKToneKing]

@thebugle2 its played on the b string thou

[davec3487]

Marty, you are great, don't get me wrong, but your timing seems off.

[Hughesflow27]

You absolute legend Marty

[yuza791]

Marty, sei un grande!

You're great!

[Ianmcl0889]

marty wartz has genital swartz

[niptodstan]

You explain that really well. Lots of vids don't give the kids a chance.

Bit of fret buzz though. :-).

[TheGeneLightShow]

@niptodstan well just imagine little jimmi and all the little blues kids from the 60s who had to learn all by themselves! we got it easy!

[vegasholdemrules]

[ballackbeckham]

@STEVO1849 the texas flood video of course.

[ballackbeckham]

@STEVO1849 yeah bitch thats what i thought.. god stupid mofos think they got the blues.

[STEVO1849]

@ballackbeckham Are you okay ?

[STEVO1849]

@ballackbeckham Its pretty obvious, listen to the intro of the song

[STEVO1849]

@ballackbeckham your really determined to prove me wrong eh ?

[STEVO1849]

@ballackbeckham Its kind of pathetic

[STEVO1849]

@ballackbeckham Walking away ?

[ballackbeckham]

@STEVO1849 yes bitch

[STEVO1849]

@ballackbeckham still here..? And what is the point of you cursing at me ?

[ballackbeckham]

@STEVO1849 umm because you still wont answer me.. you know im right

[STEVO1849]

@ballackbeckham I did answer your and cursing at me just makes you look like the average internet troll.

[vaulterman24]

[2chancE05]

[soulplatos]

[guitarnoob77]

what kind of guitar does Marty play?

[gageman70]

@guitarnoob77 That's a Heritage H 535 or H 555 from Kalamazoo, MI, the city I live in. :)

[FishCanFlyBonaire]

THAT HELPT A LOT THANKS:p

[Fusco2594]

i broke my high E string :(

[stewrules]

1:54 is the funniest noise ever.

[MikeLeeColeman]

ok i can understand why buddy's name is in this title but don't bring john mayer down...... i understand your trying to target his fans or whatever.. but yeah this is not his style. definitely buddy though. an fyi hes a douche.

[bluesman101596]

@MikeLeeColeman i guess he was mentioned since john mayer plays alot with buddy guy and guy was one of his early influences

[mastertig69]

take it over the cliff.??..haha love it

[MOERON123]

Marty thanks alot ive been playing music for awhile now and really like the way you teach, bad ass bro thanks

[reji05ramos]

How did he do that lick at 3:24 to 3:26?

I don't get it. :))

[thewatcher416]

Great vid Marty

[hardrocker213]

once again my bloody e string broke exactly at the 12th fret arrghhh!!!

[roylv40]

@hardrocker213 Sounds like you need a setup.

[soccerguy12093]

anyone else catch the spinal tap reference?

[Tallguyalec]

4:41 do do waaahh! :D

[alfjon1]

ahhh marty u got that funk, gotta have that funk !!x

[hdscoot69]

I do not, for one, think that the problem was that the band was down. I think that the problem *may* have been, that there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being *crushed* by a *dwarf*. Alright? That tended to understate the hugeness of the object.

[ibanezman007]

I HATE John Mayer with a passion! But Buddy guy is good.

[austinmilvet23]

what pedal were you using to control that rhythm guitar in the A blues scale?

[joakim456]

@austinmilvet23 could be a boss-rc2 or a line 6 dl-4.. both of them works perfectly for this..

[KBinning]

what type of guitar is this? i know its an es-335 of some sort but whats on the headstock?

[joakim456]

@KBinning Gibson? sure doesn't look like it though.. I've always thought that the es-335 and all the other es-(put in som number) comes from gibson

[KBinning]

@joakim456 i meant the model shape was based on an es-335, not the guitar itself. found out it's a heritage 535.

[goatherder92]

i want to get baked with marty

[TheFenderplecre]

georgeous lick at 1:54

[danielcgomez]

lol, use D'Addario's and they'll never break on you!

[alexdaman8]

@danielcgomez true..

[helldx07]

well u hav to manage ur pick force and bending predictability...to perfect this.

u can just blame the tutorial.

[hadjicentury]

i thanks for what you have done here in music,,

[miguelelias1]

marty.you.da.shit! :D

[edklong]

He is good - that's all I gotta say. I am NOT a guitar player & it's like he's taken all the mystery out of it. So now I know you don't have to be a Guitar God to make it sound like that; mere humans can do it...

[ExzessivesFeiern]

very nice lesson

but...shit my e-site is broken while practising this lick -> too much bending ^^

[ckn711]

this is great stuff buddy. gonna use it right away

[nateums]

thanks man this is a great video

[WFIST]

Any other blues teachers?

[qki111]

Good Job mate!

You most def got the feeling ;)

[Minikwon1991]

What pedal is he working?

[uh0hSpaghettio]

@Minikwon1991 probably a loop pedal, e.g. Boss RC-2

[uh0hSpaghettio]

@Minikwon1991 probably a loop pedal, e.g. boss rc-2

[4evergreendayfan]
