Megadeth - "Symphony of Destruction" Guitar Solo Lesson

A detailed lesson covering Marty Friedman's blistering solo in this classic Metal hit. I play the solo at four different speeds, moderately slow to full album speed, so you can work it up gradually. I also offer an in depth analysis of the theory behind the solo. Good luck, and enjoy!

why can't people stop whoring out their websites and just teach us a damn solo?

[AxesenseGuitarGym]

@xXhanson900Xx Why do people have to be bitchy little haters instead of appreciating quality, hard work that creates resources for them for free?

[WWFinurhouse]

dude! that is pretty heavy tone for a single coil pick ups

[AxesenseGuitarGym]

@WWFinurhouse It's a stacked humbucker. All you have to do is listen to Jeff Beck to know that single-coils can sound WAY heavy. :)

[bullshitproof]

you do not play symphony of detruction as country!! god damit!!

[xMetalayerx]

Thanks man. This vid is going to help me and my band finally be able to play this song. The solo was really the only part that our lead guitarist was having trouble playing. We should be able to nail it within the week. Kudos.

@AxesenseGuitarGym sooner or later if they are going to want to exel in playing they will have to kno theory

[ReachBlows]

the only part of the song that confused me was towards the end of the solo, but on 5:51 he explained it perfect! He plays is slow enough that I got it down easy by ear, SWEET!!!

great vid man this helped out big time! Big Thanks.

TABs?



[v8venom87]

This sounds dead on! Would it be posable to get the tabs for this? Also wondering if you have a guitar pro track for this solo? v8venom87@gmail.com

[firehouse890]

Thanks For The Tabs!! :D

cool but no lesson

[wlindenlaub]

@AxesenseGuitarGym Is this played the same way as in the Countdown to Extinction tablature book? I've been trying to learn this solo and you sounded dead on! I've noticed differences in other videos, I just want to learn it the right way.
