SKYNYRD OH YEAH. Favorite band of all time.

[@mikeruggia3848]

Hey Marty don't you wish people would stop requesting a million different songs and just enjoy what you put out

[@custerranch]

You are an amazing teacher! After 30 years of playing acoustic rhythm Country guitar with open chords, I'm having a blast learning classic rock power chords and riffs on my kid's electric. Guitar is finally fun again!

[@rayross997]

Lovin' the southern rock major pentatonic lessons. Your Allman Brother lessons are great, Marty. As time allows sure hope you can get more into them, like the style of Duane & one of the most under rated players of the past 50 years Mr.Dickey Betts. Dickey's playing is awesome to hear & see, what a southern rock master!

[@TonyStarkCanada]

mind= blown. Marty, your method of teaching is magic. suddenly music was coming from my fingers instead of just notes that vaguely resemble a song. Another great lesson. Thanks :)

[@SticksAandstonesBozo]

God I love when I am trying to find how to do techniques on the guitar for a year or more then I find the answer. Thank you.

[@Matthewmaya1]

loving the skynyrd videos keep them coming

[@oldschool4382]

OH MARTY About 12 AM here in Jacksonville. Fl reliving my youth 60 next year this was way awesome putting away my Strat and breaking out the 77 Electra MPC X330 the closest thing to a Les Paul I own great guitar being raised on southern rock it has handled a lot of Skynyrd, Blackfoot Hatchet ,Outlaws etc its getting ready for a fresh lesson on how to spank Three Steps best concise and correct technique lesson I have seen in many a day Thank You Thank You Thank You

[@SticksAandstonesBozo]

This one’s easier said than done. I do a lot of reaching down for those b and e adds on g bends but that stretch while holding both is for sure pushing my limits of what I’m used to doing so I’m excited to feel challenged.

[@matthewharrisparker]

THANK YOU! In 13 minutes you gave me 3 months worth of ideas to explore. Thank you thank you

[@DHY2K25]

Awesome. That shined a bright light on tying the chords together with technique. Thanks!

[@rayross997]

One of your best lessons for sure, really helpful to learn major pentatonic stuff. No wonder you passed 250,000 subscribes, maybe the "Sneeze" heard round the world did it. So glad you went on your own with Marty Music!

[@michaeltaylors2456]

This is freakin great . This is harder to get right than the shreddy minor key weedally weedally bs I was practicing . And a lot cooler ironically. Thanks Marty!

[@KevinSmith-uj5ev]

Really good lesson Marty. Thanks. It made a lot of sense of that style for me. A real "eureka" lesson for me. Cheers bro'!

[@kennethstowell7650]

thanks for putting out great videos.. been following for a couple yrs. bought some of the dvd's, but these videos keep me motivated!

[@peterjorgensen6121]

Danggg!!! I'll say it again. You make it look sooooooo easy. Well done Marty. Thanks

[@coltonestes510]

Best teacher out there hands down !!

[@KenPryor]

Don't know how I missed this video when it came out. Thanks for another awesome lesson, Marty! I'm a major Skynyrd fan and love to learn anything related to their music.

[@johnsguitarmusicanddemos]

*That’s one of the things that makes me feel drawn to southern rock! 👧 Those sexy bends!*

[@firstlag]

Oops, nearly forgot. Into my 6th year of requesting the same song. "It's because I love you" by The Masters Apprentices. Cheers Marty.

[@joshnorko5586]

Good stuff man. Looking forward to the live stream tomorrow too

[@4evertrick]

Marty, Thanks, I'm so glad you put this out. This helps.

[@laren5413]

Hey Marty! You've helped out so much and I thank you greatly! Is there any way you can get a lesson for Lynyrd Skynyrd's Tuesday's Gone? Thank you so much!!

[@johnronan5478]

Well done Marty. Very inspirational. One of my favorite songs and great for guitar students!

[@1ndbauza]

[@hillrocks]

[@bluehazeboy]

[@TheTigers62]

I enjoy your work Marty thanks!!

[@zaalbar7]

Do you have any friends who play mandolin? I'm learning SO much from your lessons and I'd like to find a KZbinr like you who teaches Mandolin. Thanks

[@berniefoster6152]

thanks for these Marty i really liked this lesson. maybe sometimes at the start of a lesson like this, could you make some comments about your tone set up? Love to get close to the tone you got on this one (i don't own an LP), but type of pedal, how much gain would be great sometimes. thanks mate.

[@bradrevland5451]

Really good one Marty!!!

[@maxbeale8186]

Southern Rock rules, yeehaw 🤠

[@TychoHD]

Hey Marty! Can you do some REO tutorials in the future! Thanks for all the help!!!!!!!!!!

[@firstlag]

Got a lot out of that. Thanks mate.

[@mauritzcolling3775]

Het Marty! Could you possibly teach us "the grace of god" by the Hellacopters? You and your tutorials have been a great help. You rock!

[@cameronmorton1578]

Would love a video on anything from LOTR i.e concerning hobbit or bridge of khazad dum :)

[@SmiTTyy-sh8nc]

I really appreciate your channel. Wish I could have learned this years ago !👍

[@lucaskre9062]

can you do a pedal guide video where explain and demo pedals? and maybe start with a list of pedals a guitar player probably needs the most that would ne great :)

[@leebraly3904]

Great. Thank you.

[@garrettramsey643]

You’re the man Marty, but Gary Rossington used hybrid picking for his oblique bends. Would you mind giving a lesson on some of that stuff?

[@nonrevnosnibormetalbeerrev6251]

love that Marty, thanks..

[@richardgregory3644]

I can tell a big difference in whether you strum or hybrid pick some of the notes good stuff

[@sxnchay]

Loving the lessons Marty! Could you please tell me the key of the progression?

[@gergemall]

Love it Marty

[@David-to9vu]

Can you please do a lesson on Joe Walsh's Lifes Been Good? Love the lessons.

[@DanSZiegler]

AWESOME lesson! Yee-HAW!!!! :-D

[@DanSZiegler]

P.S. - I feel obligated to yell out, "Free Bird!" ;-)

[@rainergasser]

👍 Can you please do 'Inflatable' by Bush? No videos out there for this awesome song. 😉 Or 'Letting the cables sleep' or 'Swallowed', or....... Bush is awesome! 😉

[@yanivweinstock9764]

[@mariofournier9663]

Great lesson Marty! Would you add some backtrack to complete your lesson? But you!re nice!

[@boomersdelightvv7201]

Hey man, that was a T-bone steak of a lesson! More of that please?

[@Wyld45]

Very much like your sound Marty. It is certainly one of my most favorite genres. You have any styles for The Outlaws or Molly Hatchet?

[@iamswitters]

You got the shirt but why you didn't wear a cowboy hat I'll never know.

[@zetto_san-ichi4824]

iamswitters because fedoras

[@codygarland6365]

iamswitters Because m'lady

[@davidflint12]

I loved you in the other channel now even more in your own

[@DueceBandit]

I just saw in a past video but.. You're from San Diego?? I would love to meet you in person once I get back from Scotland!

[@oskarileikos]

I love your guitar sound! What is your amp, and which pedals do you use?

[@MrCybalusion]

you really fueled my brains 🧠

[@danieltomsic8601]

you are the best!!

[@janissaryvanderheim9379]

We are Rebels!!

[@tetonflytying8899]

I am pretty new to electric guitar I have been playing acoustic for a while. I have beginner gear, a low-grade Epiphone amp that only has volume, trebble, bass knobs and a dirty button. I love the blues so how should I tune my amp to get a beautiful bluesy note.

[@zanselko7451]

I learned alot from you.

[@Ben-jg1ib]

Hi Marty! Will you teach some system of a down?? Preferably Lonely Day, but id be happy with any haha

[@samgordon9630]

Could you do a lesson on Saturday Night Special?

[@alkislionis8261]

played classic

[@CrazyLilacGurl19]

the style just reminds me of way too many bands i listen to

[@evanstanton423]

Could you do a lesson on welcome to my life by simple plan? there's a few vids on KZbin but I always find it easier to learn songs on your channel

[@CunningStuntsGoFast]

yesterday you posted on fb you had 250.000 subs , gained 171 today wtf

[@mattyoz0]

Now 257

[@bretschwartz]

That low A bend was really stiff! Very tough using a Strat. Best Lesson in a while pal!

[@howardkennamer3249]

You must have some yankie in you marty, u gotta put that Bama sting into it.

[@thepeopleyouprobablydontkn4846]

Hey Marty! Would be appreciated if you could do the intro to anastasia by Slash and Myles Kennedy, I have tried learning it from other people, but none seem to be as good as you.

[@johnnyboi8882]

Please play "All on Me" by Devin Dawson, it's brand new it has an awesome sound and no one on the internet has the tutorial yet.

[@564df6g5h4d6f5g4h6d5]

A NEW STYLE ADVANCED LESSON? Many of us have played for yearned appreciate a faster lesson. After a while you can play what you hear and if you have someone playing parts we can just pick it up by ear. For example take a Gilmore solo and play a few bars. Maybe say scale and position and then run through it pausing after every phrase for a moment. We can listen then play and then rewind to confirm we have it right. A hyper speed lesson for players who have their scales and ear developed. But would like to see someone play the part to get position. ?????

[@redneck-caskey9316]

where can i get a guitar like the one your using?

[@bama5490]

Awesome teacher wish you would do some chicken picken jerry reed style

[@marcusgonzales5932]

I just wish I had an amp

[@CunningStuntsGoFast]

[@caldaratty]

[@marcusgonzales5932]

yea of course but I would like to learn some songs you just can't do on an acoustic

[@boleynali]

Go on e bay some are dirt cheap.

[@peterzuehlke]

you can get a pretty good electric these days for not too much money and get Garageband for your iphone / ipad. (if you are not playing electric out)

[@DannyPanza]

Some Mike Bloomfield??

[@WelfaresAdventures]

could you do a tutorial on Clocks by Coldplay?

[@Mabufu381]
