FINALLY MORE METALLICA thank you marty 😭

[@brodyjohnson941]

Marty is my favorite guitar teacher because he's really patient and easy-going, he has a "have fun with it" attitude and I love that because I'm not trying to impress anyone with my playing, I'm just trying to have fun. And Marty doesn't always play things 100% accurate but that's OK because I just want to have fun when I play, not play half a dozen scales just to play 1 riff. I have learned 90% of the songs that I know now from him. Thanks Marty :)

Such a good riff

[@Furii0us]

Marty this is great! It would be awesome if you could add 30 seconds of sound info to your lessons! Like pickup position, how much tone, a little bit about reverb/distortion etc. Much appreciated! Have a great Holiday!

[@kkdeveauxgue2784]

I thought they got lucky on the black album,this was during the grunge era I was there,so they fit in with that time period,if they had did that fast stuff like their previous albums,it would have failed,,I was born in 1965,so I've seen the time changes in music,from Elvis Jimi and the Rolling stones to Motley Crue,Ratt and Nirvana and Soundgarden, Lots of great music during those decades,But as I look back religiously,I wasted my life chasing a ghost star,just wasted years..Iron Maiden:Caught Somewhere In Time....

[@eldog5040]

That's sad but true but its a good riff Mr fussy bollocks

[@StephGV2]

I spent an hour matching the tone on my little Blackstar with eq pedals in front and in the fx loop, and finally settled on a plexi pedal set a little dark. Lotta fiddling to get the sound with the wrong amp, guitar and everything else :) I could have just used one of the sims on my computer, but I felt like some real vacuum tubey analoginess.

[@BuenoReviews]

I have that same amp he has (if it is the Mk100 MKII) and I bought the Sad But True patch from Juca Nery’s website and it sounds EXACTLY like the album - it blows me away. Thanks for the video, Marty! Always wanted to play that song. Sucks that you need to tune down a whole step but Kickstart My Heart is also in the same tuning and it’s a great second song to jam after this 🤘🤘

[@Sandman60077]

A lot of old guys love to talk trash about the Black Album, but this is without a doubt one of (if not the) heaviest songs they ever made. The whole album is one of the heaviest they ever made. People complain that they aren't playing fast on most of the songs. But playing fast isn't what makes a song heavy.

[@williamhopkins1262]

My 2nd or 3rd favorite album from them. Ride the Lightning will stay my favorite, but The Unforgiven is my favorite song of theirs.

[@williamhopkins1262]

@@Kenzabukuro That's just like, your opinion man

[@earthsurgery1237]

I agree. This album has a lot of weight to it. Smashmouth heavy

[@williamhopkins1262]

@@earthsurgery1237 Smashmouth goes hard 💀💀💀

[@TheKidKILLUA]

bro the Black Album made them, let’s just say it was a masterpiece.⚠️

[@antond8947]

Dear Marty, I have bought a guitar about a week ago and learn exclusively based on your videos, because they're the most informative and helpful among all others I have seen so far. Great insight into the details and how to play them, repeating them slowly and quickly. Amazing. Based on your videos I have learned pretty successful the steps in "Ace of Spades", the very beginning of "Nothing else matters" AND! I learned the base intro chords of this song already within 2 hours and exceeded all my own bravest expectations! Many many thanks to you for your job!

[@Dandyduck194]

Let’s go Marty! Keep it going, keep the Metallica up! I love this so much

[@brandonanderson2066]

Somehow the heaviest head banging riff of all time. Can't say enough about the production of this monster of a song. Good vid and Merry Christmas!

[@melek1108]

The best guitar teacher on KZbin.

[@IronDio698]

I just got back into guitar after spending the last two years focused on bass. Just found this dude and he is a great teacher! I’m about half way through his paid beginner’s course. Definitely worth the price🤘🤘

[@LightsaberGoBrrrrrr]

Great lesson - thank you Marty! You’ve been insanely helpful and taught me almost everything I know. The only thing I would ask is making sure you’re telling us which tuning the song is in at the beginning of the lesson. Sometimes you leave that out. But I can’t really complain - love you man

[@MartyMusic]

Rock on!

[@maxscardanelli6185]

Did you not watch the video? He literally said the tuning at the beginning of the video. 🙄🤦🏻

[@LightsaberGoBrrrrrr]

@@maxscardanelli6185 not this video just in general. It’s frustrating when you know it’s not standard but have no clue what

[@njh.6729]

Just got a new guitar for christmas 🔥perfect time to drop this vid marty

[@ZenRanger94]

Just got a boss katana 50 for Christmas, will definitely be trying this later today. Thanks Marty!

[@bored7772]

id recommend getting a distortion pedal way better distortion and way less noise sounds very badass

[@Rossy1995]

@@bored7772 and a looper ? Which do u recommend ?

[@bored7772]

@@Rossy1995 like the looper that you play something and it loops so you can play over that? i got one it works well but newer models have a certain plug for the loop pedal and i dont know alot of distortion pedals but ive tried a few and nothing has beat my first pedal which is the digitech grunge distortion i use it for metal mainly mostly metallica and it kicks ass compared to every other pedal ive tried they go for about $40-50 online

[@snakesanders3991]

Марти!!! Ты крут и всё такое, смотрю тебя с года 2014-2015!!! Но мне всегда казалось, что тебе не хватает экспрессии, и данное видео особенно это подчёркивает! Звук - идеальный, исполнение - идеально, но чего-то не хватает!!! Твоя тема - это блюз!

[@StephGV2]

Thanks, I needed this. Probably should have learned this at least 25 years ago.

[@webbcite]

Merry Christmas with Metallica - Love it.

[@dellaj86]

Thanks for all the time and effort you put into this!

[@markoszouganelis5755]

I was searching for a very good tutorial about those chords of this beautiful composition! Your video is very comprehensive!🎵🎵🌈🌻Thank you!

[@liamade4826]

Best Christmas gift ever!!

[@the_original_Bilb_Ono]

Dude. Been waiting on this tutorial so long that i learned by tabs and then forgot most of it. Lol i basically just remember thats its one of the only Metallica songs tuned to D standard.

[@alanbailey2149]

Thank you Marty for supplying me all these tutorials. I’m very thankful.

[@DisposableV]

Thanks mate i have had a few gutair teacher's before you tube even started yep I am old 😉 you are a ledge man hope you never stop I am sure you are inspiring young people every day all the best have a merry Christmas to you mate and every one else out there

[@MartyMusic]

Wow, thanks!

[@twoputt5]

I'm loving METAL MARTY! I really appreciate the detail on right hand rythym which is most important and difficult element of this tune! Thanks

[@kevingauthier9726]

Marty you are the best ..i am learning 100 % from you ...im on this one and symphony of destruction

[@giakysmanga7519]

merry xmas martyyy, you was my first teacher

[@Happylink75]

Poggers this is exactly what I needed and on Christmases. Epic present

[@Saman_English]

Thank you so much! We'd love more Metallica!

[@tahamerza4070]

Yesss, do more of Metallica

[@barrygoldberg643]

been waiting on this song for awhile now! so exited to get to learning it!

[@hadriano2113]

Merry Christmas Marty !!

[@paulepejos]

Merry Christmas

[@kcmet79]

Great stuff. I personally like incorporating the quasi-staccato way (ending string ringing with leftover L.H. fingers) that Hetfield plays the second and third D5s each time thru the primary riff. Most folks just classically-R.H.-palm-mute.

[@kevinpinto84]

Merry Christmas Marty & everyone on this channel 🎄

[@mmgr.madminutegearreviews4562]

I love your mean mug when you're rocking out.

[@jadendorsey5709]

So unexpected but your the greatest teacher every!

[@davidhoxit4274]

So good! If you have a minute in the future ....could you illustrate the heavy swamp chugging in the style of Jerry Cantrell?

[@jcburger733]

Hey Marty, thanks for the Sad But True guitar lesson. Greatly appreciated!!!

[@LoudonMetal]

Great lesson !!Great heavy Metallica tune Marty !! I have been playing Metallica for a while several tunes in mostly E-Flat when they did them in E and I knew this tune was in D-Standard. THX to you I learned this one now! I've been playing it on My DEAN Razorback !! I also love playing "Wherever I may ROAM" off this classic 1991 album as well !! THX so much Marty !!! Rock on !! I Subbed...💯💥💥🤘🤘💯🔥🔥

[@tjshook2171]

My new favorite riff

Sad but true sounds good in any tuning

I was planning to buy that Kramer pacer tiger and then I end up getting a PRS standard 24-08

Oh,. Marty, I practice it all day so I liked it. And keep going . greetings.

[@mratlas1509]

We want some more Metallica marty please

[@wouter306]

Could you specify what settings your amp is on? I have the exact same one and would love to roughly replicate your sound

[@coomingnotgoing904]

That super deep sound is partially due to pickup choice, I can get a similar tone with EMG pickups using either the neck pickup or a mixture of the two

[@nickguitar5734]

James hetfield also uses his pointer and middle finger on the pick instead of just the pointer finger and it makes all the difference with 2 fingers

[@jameswest1124]

My face in the beginning matched Marty’s exactly

[@richwatson9990]

Merry Christmas! Did Marty leave anything in your stocking?

[@smithcja]

Marry Christmas Marty!

[@vanadam876]

Hello sir, how to set the guitar sound to the same as in the video? Do I need to have some kind of pickup for the amp or is it just a different type of guitar and strings.

[@stevefielding8324]

Great work Marty! Please could you do B Movie Boxcar Blues?

[@rubengoya8154]

Never disappointed 👍💯
