Dave Mustaine teaching riffs..

Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine teaches a variety of riffs, including one he invented himself.

[@whynotdyingfetus1933]

It's so weird seeing him without a V xD

Man, Dave is probably my best inspiration as a musician ever. He was kicked out one of the biggest bands ever, he created a new band and became fucking amazing, and then that injury he had, the fact he recovered from that is inspiration for any fucked up musician :D

[@adammalzahn7238]

Then he beat Cancer. Don’t forget that one.

This is for Mustaine: I have to confess that your musical work is a great part of the soundtrack of my life. Thank you for giving me -and to the rest of the Megadeth fans- the best music I've ever heard... and I heard a lot!

Out of all the guitarists in the big four. Dave and marty were the most skilled. That's why megadeth was the best. The riffs were so intricate.

Check out annihilator, hold them almost equal to megadeth

[@JinnDuceau]

HenkBenk88 I consider Jeff Waters as one of the most exeptionally skilled Metal guitarists in the World, no wonder he was asked to join Megadeth

[@HenkBenk88]

yeah, he is awsome. Saw annihilator live at swedenrock 2014, never heard of them before and had some time between bands I planned to see so i thought why not, guess if I was happy with that choice!

[@what1864]

has to be one ov the most informative guitar lessons from a famous player i've ever seen he explains exactly what he's doing and shows it , many famous players don't really show you shitt in there lessons , not sure if they are bad teachers or want to keep their style/technique a secret ...

[@SouradeepSBK]

I love that how Dave teaches so much of his stuff, there's so many of these videos which I absolutely love about him. And that's the point where I can't appreciate Hetfield, from what I see there's not even 1 video where he'd pick up his guitar to teach random stuffs or his downpicking; there a 30 sec video where he says t'was mutual competition or something like that, I find Kirk teaching Master Of Puppets but not James.

[@Jamesthehottie100]

Dave never sold out like Metallica....lol

[@CalendarGarbage]

*cough* Risk *cough*

[@maxscardanelli6185]

I actually though 'Risk' wasn't that bad an album. Sure it wasn't as heavy as their earlier (and later) stuff but it was still a good/decent album. And hey, at least it had guitar solos even if they were bad. Unlike Metallica's 'St. Anger'...!!! Which is raised quite high up in my list if Top. 5 Metallica albums.

[@jeromios]

cds800xp At least he stopped and started making good stuff again. And he named it "Risk" because that's what it was anyway.

[@jasonx4008]

nothing irks me more than the words "sold out". what are they supposed to do? make the exact same type of music for 30 years?? thats insane. musicians mature, progress, and change over time. i love all of metallica and megadeth's early thrash stuff but Load and Cryptic Writings were some of their most honest, heartfelt albums in my opinion. The difference between, lets say Peace Sells and Youthanasia or Ride the Lightning and Reload is a testament to the versatility and talent of both bands. this is the exact reason i dont like slayer...

[@patriciomayorga6878]

Tienes razon loco

[@hazor777]

Overkill, Testament, Slayer, Anthrax, megadeth, never quit they're style or metal. That is what I am saying. All those bands know they can roast the fuck out of Metallica...lol you know it's true Metal heads..Metallica sold the fuck out, everybody comes to see them play their old stuff. Death magnetic sucks..just a bunch of noise. You can't cruise and jam that shit and get chick's and props for a bad as stereo??? Playing anything after the Justice album..Metallica sold out before Maiden, sabbath fuck, what up with that shit? All the bands I named never changed or switched up or let their fans down like Metallica . That's all I am saying.

[@azndude1277]

that's true i've seen a lot of player with different picking styles, some close their fists when they speed up, some leave their finger loose, some people hold the pick at an angle which isnt as bad as he makes it sound in some of the other videos, but he just likes to pick as parallel as he can because that just how he does it....

[@Mikejesmike]

A spider riff is when you play powerchords using your index and ring finger and your bird and pinky. For instance if you play e-2/a-4 your index is on e-2 and your ring is on a-4. When you move to e-3/a-5 you use your bird and pinky instead of sliding your hand down.

[@kai9116]

3:42 = Basic scales. 3:42 + Dave Mustaine's distortion = Orgasmatic scales.
