Hey Marty,

you´re my favourite guitar-teacher!! can you do "Pricetag" by Jessy J. ??!!

or something by Adele, Bruno Mars or Feist??

thanks!! :D

[Horaciow14]

What do you use to record a backing track? At 0:18 you step in a pedal or something to stop it? What is that?

[fatty092]

Love how Marty flips us off at 3:21. Thanks Bro, thought we were pals.

[Pelleman666]

[theplourde]

Dude I love how you take care in explaining every little bit of these licks and certainly its helped me a lot. I ruled a jam session at a graduation party last summer. many people were impressed. thanks much.

[thebluesrockers]

I really love the way you mix minor and majors together. who are a few of your favorite blues men of all time, that have been some of your biggest influences?

[strabbs1]

thats a very interstin question, id be intereted to know. i dont realy like blues but martys jazzy blues is great, i like wes montgomery style

[rob1itall]

I think I saw my reflection in the Humbucker! Great lesson Marty!

[Joostbeers]

Hi marty

I really like your solo lessons but the only thing is, me and my band we play rock/indie/britpop music so a bluesy solo will randomly fit a song so my question:

In the future, are you coming up then with some Rock solo lessons ?

Thanks

[samanosukkia]

Hey Joostbeers, what you have to understeand is that blues and rock-pop have a lot in common.

Apart from some rare cases when you use modes or minor scales, for the most of the time even in rock or pop you use pentatonic scales.

It'a all 'bout the choice of the notes, you can put them in a very bluesy way, ora you can create some great pop and rock lines :D

[Joostbeers]

Aah okay, Im not much of a good 'solo inventor' then :P

Because when I use 'these notes' I never end up on a shredding rocksolo, but that also could be me ;)

Ill give it another try, thanks for the comment ;)

[samanosukkia]

Well, if you're more in the shred side of things, but want to still sound rock, try to listen to guys like Michael Schenker or Uli Jon Roth, maybe you can "steal" some ideas from them :D

[StonedMoses]

Hi Marty! Great vid!

Which looper do you play?

Thanks!

[fabio180495]

Fucking great video man!! congrats

[Mardolin]

marty, can you do a turtorial for what if god was one of us? :)

[strabbs1]

[chesshirecat2]

marty. my thanks to ya. always being so generous. you do a swell job. thank you. I just got a looping station yesterday, so I can finally do these little things on my own and it's a ton of fun! thanks again

-pat

[Itsooz]

stop spamming

[trhnpc]

Nice lesson Marty !

I think that you could do a lesson on aolean mode. It would really be helpful to everyone.

[Spuke3o3]

I'm sold.. i'm gonna buy your dvds.

[wolf111111]

thanks marty ur lessons r really good ive been tryin to learn blues guitar

[MBvolcom92]

nice leasson but i'm getting sick of these blues lessons :/

[Arcadiah]

@MBvolcom92 his own style is blues so thats what he mostly teaches

[zynvktca]

I really like that playing style... I decided to see what I can do with it.. came up with a nifty little sound... check it out under my videos..

[guitarnoob77]

so an embellishment is where the lead is correspondent to the rhythm

[wawalb]

Nice!  Great stuff Marty.

[scotttheROBOT]

loving the 7 sound ! lets get some more of that ! Like some early stray cat's or something.

[mattster323]

awesome lesson! Keep it comin in the new year marty! you rock!

[jakethesnake922]

happy new year marty

[huachiman7]

Brilliant as always!

[eaglesrule89]

i have a question marty or anyone who knows why did marty say the b7 chord in Embellishments could be thought of as a major chord does that have something to do with like 1 4 5 chord progression and sorry if i messed up the number in the chord progression

[drumsjillu]

super...!!

[stevweb16]

Nice tute. I will be going over this one today. Lots to learn here.

Thanks from TO.

[TheBobare]

Happy and Healthy New Year Marty to you and you fam! You are making the world a better place by vastly increasing the number of blues guitarists on the planet. When you play the minor pentatonic with the root on the A string-is the pattern always the same as when you start on the Low E? I recall a lesson you did where you used the D minor pentatonic starting on the A string and the pattern was different- your pinky was on the root and the next note was first finger on the G string. Thank you!

[TheBobare]

Oops...first finger on the D string

[Jazzman5456]

Happy New Years Marty!!!!!!!! U have been such a a help to my playin' and it really appreciated keep on rockin' man

[Strat0Blues]

If I were getting weekly lesson from Marty I would be a pretty DAM GOOD guitarist..........fortunately for me I am going to guitar school NEXT WEEK!

[sportkid198]

lol me 2!

[Mako235]

it would be awesome if you did a tutorial on dueling banjos

[lookylooky2006]

YES!!!!

[hugstablebear]

The rest of the world is buying liquid refreshments for the evening's festivities and you're working. Take a break, Marty! It's time to party, celebrate the successes of the past year and look forward to those of the new one coming up. Prospero anyo, dude!

[netdiggity]

What amp are we looking at behind you?

[guitarjamzdotcom]

@netdiggity divided by 13

[Stratomacaster]

btw - When I buy the DVD lessons, do me a favor... buy some oil for that chair man!!! lol. I had to EQ it out of your Marley Tribute video.. hah!

[guitarjamzdotcom]

@Stratomacaster uhhhhh killing me

[Stratomacaster]

Sorry man.. was that too much?

[guitarjamzdotcom]

@Stratomacaster no that chair is killing me

[Stratomacaster]

More mind expanding, face melting, better-than-cool lessons from Marty just make my day.

Unlike most, your lessons teach how to use the information to be creative on your own and not just repeating some 'boxy' pentatonic lick that everyone and their dog has heard a million times.

I can't thank you enough... I'll be investing in the DVD lessons as soon as get my grubby hands on my tax return.

Cheers - and have an outstanding 2010 Marty.

[notNEWW]
