[@ethanwalker3599]

Honestly, to me it sounds a bit cleaner. Bro Is insane

[@wayneleone]

totally agree - most guitarists struggle with this part and whack a lot of fast notes over it. Even Kiko did when he auditioned. This version is the best I've heard - sounded accurate and clean.

[@1997Bobson]

0:54 this is the only time I see somebody playing that part exactly like Marty did in the studio version of the song. Fucking amazing playing congratulations!!

[@limenode]

Exactly. Everybody tends to fudge over this part, which is understandable because it's very challenging... and I doubt that Friedman himself could play this precisely like the studio cut, but boy does it sound amazing.

[@petruccijohn1849]

Not even marty can do it again... he dont know what the hell did it

Ben Eller (#weekendwankshop) does a pretty good job as well.

[@apositron84]

lol yeah, it took me TWO years (on and off) of learning this solo and having to go back and learn and practise the techniques painstakingly with a metronome, but still that bit at 0:54 I fudge something that sounds vaguely similar, or just cut it there and go back to rhythm. Very good - especially considering this guy look about 20 years younger than me :(

[@oldmatevb]

Prometheus have you not heard the floods solo lmao

[@leerobbo92]

@@oldmatevb Yeah, but Dimebag's tone is notorious for being swamped with gain and scooped out, makes harmonics easier (which is how he could make them scream like that, plus he'd divebomb with the whammy bar to add even more to it). This is such a clean tone in comparison, yet that harmonic is like fucking crystal. Reminds me of the opening harmonic in the Comfortably Numb solo.

[@oldmatevb]

[@michelgioia4186]

Eu tbm, acho que já assisti à esse vídeo umas 100x, e em todas elas eu acho simplesmente incrível como se fosse a primeira vez!

Tô trabalhando nesse solo há 8 meses! Toco há 21 anos mas sempre fui base de metal, o famoso riffeiro, solo nunca foi muito a minha praia, sempre quis mas meus dedos não respondem, tô gravando um cover dessa música e já gravei a base toda, aí fui pra tirr o solo e tá FODA, tô quase lá! O macete é tocar devagar, pegar aqueles backing track -50% velocidade e vai devagar, com muita dificuldade mas tô evoluindo, já consigo tocar boa parte nos 176bpm nessa pegada do jovem aí do vídeo, mas ainda dou umas atropeladas de vez em quando.. Mas vai sair!! A teimosia fala mais alto!

[@ricardojesus1962]

Perfect! One of the many difficult things to replicate in Marty Friedman style are the bendings, and you nailed them. The timing and the feeling is spot on! No rushed parts!!! Congratz on the PERFECT SOLO!

[@douglasdbs7139]

Yes! Indeed, the bendings are the most difficult part to emulate from Marty. That's why I strongly disagree when people say Friedman's or even Megadeth guitar style is only technical shredding, I couldn't disagree more. Dude nailed tornado solo perfectly on this vid. Congrats!!!

Holy SHIT!! Very impressive!! I don't have see your face for any expressions, I can clearly hear your dedication and feel straight from your guitar. You nailed it better than Broderick and Kiko, seriously! Great technique, awesome sound, and you put your metal heart into that one! Good work man!

Coming back to revisit this one....I think this is the best version of this solo ever recorded. It's not just better than the original like my first comment said...it's the vest version that will ever exist of this.
