Megadeth "Lucretia" solo

[zimonslot]

Dude, you forgot the best part! This is where it gets good.

[valdivia562]

this song is a bitch im learning it but the sweeps are so hard

[delt01]

nice job, well done sir!

[gruszkos666]

Maybe have you got tabs to your version of the solo?

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

@gruszkos666 I posted this video over 3 years ago haha. I believe at the time I learned this using a Guitar Pro file, which you can find on ultimate-guitar, most likely.

[BobTimeIsNow]

@gruszkos666 The tab at songsterr matches this.

[lordmorgoth7]

FUC WELL DONE MAN!!!

[ljr5150]

better than i can do on that. nice job bro!

[LuisRhoads666]

je is the RR3 right? i have the same guitar :D!! nice playing

[CHECHE123456789]

this solo is so orgasmic! check my cover of it!

[MrIsaksen903]

nice cover man! =)

[laconchatu]

for me very technical solo

[tsunami624]

i just creamed as hard as i did the first time this amazing solo graced my ears

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

@tsunami624 hahaha Thank you!

[rampage222555]

Martys Lucretia solo is one of my favs, nice cover. I hate Daves solo though, it was awful. Nobody has covered Daves solo yet, I was hoping on finding a cleaner version on it.

[laconchatu]

shit! i love that guitar . jackson (l)

[MuffinEatsYou]

this is one of my favorite guitar solos ever, i wanna learn it.

[Vansork91]

Marty solos are SO TECHNICAL stop saying that bullshit of "Marty solos are not technical"

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

@Vansork91 Who said they weren't technical? I juzt said they're not overly technical, he alwayz haz feel. Rusty Cooley iz overly technical to me, Marty iz not.

[Kapteininnlysende]

@EndeavorLeadGtr Well, Marty's solos ARE technical as all hell, but they're not that fast..

But I don't care how fast/technical they are, they sound good, and that's all I ever cared about, awesome cover btw, trying to figure this solo out atm, but it's damn hard.

[ChaosMario6969]

@EndeavorLeadGtr

i disagree, marty is very technical.. havnt you ever watched his lessons... His lessons are guaranteed to make your improve better... i dont care what anyone says they do. lol

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

@ChaosMario6969 My point wazn't that Marty izn't technical, I mean lizten to Cacophony! But what I'm saying iz that oppozed to some playerz who juzt senselessly shred, Marty doez it with feeling and emotion!

[lolroflstomp]

@EndeavorLeadGtr Why the hell are you using the letter z in place of the letter s? Are you ztupid?

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

@lolroflstomp Mainly so people like you will azk me questionz similar to the one you juzt azked. Alzo, becauze I'm ztupid.

[ElvisBluntman777]

@Vansork91 dude marty's solos are fucking magical, it's out of the world..

[iLik3c0o0ki3s]

how did you get the tone :o

[robert22V]

wow good job men

[MultiRaiha]

well done !! check out my full solo version

[J03SA]

OW MY EARS! shrill tone o_o but that was a PERFECT cover imo! NICE!

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

@J03SA Yeah, I know! I was using a Boss MT-2 at this time, which is a pretty tinny sounding pedal, and on top of that the camera I use seems to really amplify high frequencies. Sorry about your earz!

[J03SA]

@EndeavorLeadGtr aha np xD and again, nice playing :)

[alliswow]

You rock dude!

[guitarnoize]

Nice job, check out my cover too :)

[cocain93]

martys solos are pretty technical in my opinion......

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

They are, but they're never overly technical like a lot guys who just shred up the butt. Marty is always feelin' it!

[MrZebub]

@EndeavorLeadGtr That's why he's my fav.Good one.

P.S. You need a new bed.

[mingebag851]

@cocain93 Yeah, they are quite technical, but Marty makes so beautiful melodies so the speed doesn't matter much....

[Neoclassicalman]

@cocain93 well he came from probably the most technical band ever Cacophony

[ahmadsamintazwarkhan]

this fucking awesome !! =D

[Tb0neZ5]

pretty good, a couple licks were a bit off, but no one can play a marty solo perfectly lol. good job.

[HolyGK]

GOD! At the beginning I thought you lost a leg.

[RockonDude92]

There was a flat note in the middle somewhere but other than that this was pretty good man, keep it up.,

[vadm13]

friedman´s solos are always bitchy, but i have to say that mustaine´s solo in lucretia is harder

[ozisansan]

GREAT MAN!!!!!! ★10000

[9erMatthew]

I've learned how to play Tornado of Souls,Solo and all, In my opinion, Lucretia is way harder( mabey it's because I don't listen to it enough to see what I've been doing wrong)

[gh0stmasta]

amazing

[Flealan]

That was really good my friend! Getting a back track next time and it'll sound spot on.

5 stars!

[PainRinnegan90]

Marty Friedman is very difficult to play. For me Lucretia is very difficult. I think Tornado Of Souls is easier.

(sorry for my english...i'm italian)

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

That's funny because I think "Tornado of Souls" is harder to play than "Lucretia"! I guess as a whole Lucretia is more technical, but the end of ToS is tough.

[walshy0001]

i feel the same like painrinnegan90. i learned tornado of souls before lucretia, and still lucretia is much more of a bitch to play than tornado, but i have heard the exact opposite about how tornado of souls is so much harder, but idk.

[ReverendNegar]

I can't play either solo Tornado or Lucretia, but I'm much close to pulling off Lucretia than Tornado. Weird.

[walshy0001]

yeah when i posted that comment lucretia was a huge bitch, because i was still learning it. now lucretia is not as hard to play, but i still think it takes more to wrap around it as a whole than tornado of souls. lucretia has this weird time signature and slides and to me still requires much more concentration than tornado of souls.

[petsematarykeeper]

@EndeavorLeadGtr

hell yeah , that ending is a bitch to play. I just tap the ending part..but someday soon hope to get it the way it's actually played.

kick ass vid by the way.

[narutoguy56]

@EndeavorLeadGtr Are you kidding me?? Lucretia is a bitch to play i say tornado of souls is easier.

[narutoandsasurocks09]

awesome killer tone O_O

[BigLouieZ]

Thanks for the friend invite. Nice work on this solo. Its one of my favorites. Marty Friedman rocks. 5 stars.

[warpedddkidx3]

this is awesome :D - kenzy's friend

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Thanks. -Kenzy's other friend

[RodrigoCFD]

Great execution, you got the feel.

But hey, ugly right hand eh?

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Are you referring to the way I hold the pick?

[RodrigoCFD]

Yeah exactly, it looks like you've broken your thumb!

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

haha I've had several people tell me that I hold the pick strangely, but you're the first person on youtube to point it out!

[Jaff1234567890]

your awesome dude, how long did it take to learn and remember all that?

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Uhhhh.....I learned it a while ago, so I don't really remember, but it probably took somewhere between 1-3 hours.

[8Bsabres8]

sick guitar man and nice cover :D

[Pearlstudios1]

That was awesome!

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Thanks!

[icarus9000]

What amp is he using?

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

He is using a Marshall MG100HDFX with a Boss MT-2 Metal Zone. Nothing too fancy.

[Megamultikiller]

I'm useing MT-2 metal zone too!

[lejink]

i guess only marty can play that one perfectly, so im not going to criticize it.

you make it look so easy man, like i could learn it. i know better though thats a hard ass solo- just flying up and down the neck.

5/5 for sure, great cover.

[CHICKMAGNET66666]

i think this was a joke look green day and britney spears

[1madaboutguitar]

Hey you got the sound spot on that was well sweet

[GassyCoke]

wich guitar is that?? i mena is it a Jackson Pro Series or USA?

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

It's a Jackson RR3. I believe it's a 2005.

[taedog33]

can you play any YANNI just wondering

[hookedonchronixz]

dude tab that shit for me or something for real

[xxjoeyjordisonxx]

Man this cover is perfect!!! sounds fucking great!! and plus... you played it without backing trancs and anything!!

perfect man!! 5 thousand stars!!

If you want, you can check my cover!

[Warhawk666]

Ha that was pretty good! Think I am gonna give her a shot!

[xxblackvomitxx]

lol

[triiko]

Shut up Dave! You ONLY wish YOU were this good at HIS age.

[LunarChicken]

@Grailorc: You, sir, is the scum of the universe. One day I will find you, and take a huge fart in your face...

...and set it on FIRE

[LunarChicken]

Nice solo man, way to shred :)

[robthomsonwoo]

yeah bit harsh give the chap credit its a decent effort.

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Yes...well...I love you too.

[pazizel91]

Dude..way to freak out on the kid...

[returnhangar]

some of the notes needed alittle more emphasis on but other than that you blew me away man whoa and to play at that level of timing without backing i take my hat off and give you two thumbs up man all the way sweet

[Dsaubt]

you can easily take a whammy off a jackson model at guitar center

[gmoney101392]

this was just amazing, and had so much soul in it

[arroyomusic]

Pretty good bro! 5 stars!

[Trahira517]

Very nice, you did a great cover. Love that tone too, and gotta love the RR. Check out my tornado solo vid :)

[espltdm155]

i spy seymour duncan invaders in that RR3

[DarkTooth626]

marty is a living ledgend!

i made a shirt for him and its selling on ebay, you should check it out. just type in marty friedman and it'll pop up.. tell me what you think..

[Plutoniummatt]

awesome playing dude...i want your guitr o.o

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Yeah I love my Jackson. The playability is awesome. I just wish I could find my whammy bar...

[bre4dfish]

I might have an extra one I could mail you if you'd like, from an old jackson, let me know

[xFlamingxGoochx]

that was great dude, flawless! if i could give you some advice on your vibrato i would say you have to make a pivot with your hand and the neck of your guitar. lol that prolly won't help you much at all but if you want good vibrato just try mimic malmsteens vibrato, w/o a doubt the best vibrato imo

[ibanezjimjim666]

your skills are mega BOSS!

[cacophony1]

that was awesome dude!

your vibrato was a bit off but thats marty for you, keep up the good work!

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Yeah, my vibrato's the thing that people always critique...I'm working on it!

[megacheap2]

orgasmic

[mastershredder78]

Damn! That's impressive dude. And the fact that you did it without a backing track makes it even more impressive.

SHRED ON!

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Thanks! I try, man, I try...

[bigmonkeyman44]

skills

[stradlinfan]

very well done you did a really good job playing this solo. keep on rocking!

[holycow512]

nice

what gear do you use?

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Currently I'm using:

2005 Jackson RR3

Marshall MG100HDFX (Believe it or not, they can actual sound decent with a lot of fiddling around. I only use it for clean and sometimes lead sounds.)

BOSS MT-2 Metal Zone

Dunlop Tortex picks (the purple, can't

remember the size, I think around 1.14mm? In my opinion, or at least with my playing, the type and size of a pick make a large difference for me.)

In this video it's the Metal Zone over the clean Marshall.

Thanks for the comment!

[holycow512]

everyone seems to use the metal zone pedal

is it really good?

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Well, it needs to go through a lot of tweaking and long hours of turning knobs, but it is a very capable pedal. You just can't go and scoop out the mids and the bass all the way or whatever a typical metal player does. It will sound tinny if you just use presets and such. It's a good pedal, but the Line6 Uber Metal is probably better. I'm going to start looking into some tube based distortion like Mesa/Boogie amps, but I don't have the cash yet. In the meantime, the MT-2 gets the job done!

[bigmonkeyman44]

dude you are a real player and dont need a fuckin backingtrack hows it done good job.

[bigmonkeyman44]

dude you are a real player and dont need a fuckin backingtrack hows it done good job.

[MARccty]

Very nice!

[highhhopes]

cool!

[Rockeribz]

your guitar sounds incredible man, and the solo was very cool, practice with samplers or with backing tracks thath is goos and help to your coordination, keep on! you are a very good guitar player

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Thanks! I don't really know much else to say other than thanks! I appreciate it.
