So, I'm Marty fucking Friedman and I make my own fucking scales. This one got some name, I don't know if you've heard of it but it's Harmonic fucking Minor or some shit like that. That's right, I don't care enough to know because I'm that badass.
After watching this again, he holds his guitar picking hand weird - bends his wrist really goofy.........almost like he has a "queer" right hand or perhaps had something like polio as a child.
It doesnt matter what it looks like when he plays. Damn, why wont you guys get that it matters how well of a player you are rather than what the hell your hand positioning is.
he does that because he thinks its the most comftorable way to get the sound he wants, which is the ringing of the strings, he doesnt really like palm muting
He talked about "quirks" in the video, I wonder if he is aware of his own?? Maybe he should invest in a pair of light sunglasses before doing these videos?

then he was like "Here's what I would do in the same situation"
then i was like "Oh yea, now THIS is Marty Friedman man"

Still well worth it though, Marty is such a goddamn pro.

The riff at 5:33 sounds like something Paul Gilbert did. Anyway, good stuff.

Beginning sounds a little bit like Heaven Is A Truck by Pavement. YouTube it.
Anyway, awesome stuff man. Marty always nails it.

He didn't have polio, he just chooses to pick that way to get his sound.
