Hey I can play 12 bar blues but differently, it does sound the same, your playing sounds so cool great job Marty!

[@musiclyricsbyalbum5736]

Can I request a song for you to teach

[@jenniferhale7112]

Remember when you use to walk people through the chords a little more.and you use to take it a little slower also I love ur web page lessons

[@srinivasaragavanvasuvenkat7792]

I recently got so fascinated with BB King and his style of playing. This video is a godsend to me!!!

[@lmaxx1618]

Same

[@guysgear5996]

Marty schwartz you’re the best I’ve really been working on soloing with the BB box these past couple weeks, I watched all your videos, wanted more, and here you are giving us more thank you so much for doing what you do great lesson!

[@TheEtrain55]

Awesome tutorial. I've noticed that B.B. finished a lot of licks like it's a question. The last note always goes up... like your voice does with a question.

[@keithneer334]

Beautiful Marty! :- ) the harmonic scales are patterned. Many are even mathematical; understood "mathematicaly". The piano can be approached in the same fashion. As, in the "circle of chords" harmonically. To learn your tutorial is to know lead and creating harmonies! Thank you Marty. You really -INSPIRE- creativity. Beautifully presented, as only a talented (studio) musician could do. I've known very few, sir. Tommy Emmanuel inspires many. You inspire so so much brother. Thank you.

[@djvape]

Man I wish I knew enough to just go into a little freestyle

[@fluroflash2803]

You'll get there. Just keep practicing

[@masoncasey8933]

Pentatonic man, you got this! Trust the process!

[@SeabeeBuckeye]

Keep at it and watch Marty. You'll be there in no time. 👍

[@DACRAF01]

I can definitely tell you’re in the right track by finding your comment here! If Marty taught me he can teach you!

[@Landaftertime]

Learn sweet little angel and licks will start making sense

[@wyattkane88]

I swear you have my search history 😂. Last time I learned “Nobody Knows you”, you put a lesson up on it lol. I just finished practicing and learning “Sweet Little Angel: Live at the Regal” yesterday, and now this. LOVE IT MARTY! Thank you!!

[@TommySG1]

Hey Marty! Just wanted to say thank you here, I like most of your feeds but I love the Blues feeds you upload man! Fantastic 🤙

[@muhammadburhan400]

Gonna be playing some fine bluesy riffs for myself after this video. Thanks to Marty in advance for the bucket loads of fun.

[@Zillarator2099]

Thanks Marty another awesome lesson keep up the great work

[@kimcarrim351]

It would be really helpful if you did a brief view of your amp settings before going into the lesson. Love the videos.

[@Hatari2]

I agree, I always love the sound of the amp and I always want to know the amp settings to dial to make it sound that much better.

[@urbanprojectz]

I got this app, but each guitar I use just fuzzes with feedback.

[@boblavin1873]

Are you comming straight

[@boblavin1873]

Are you coming straight out of amp or going thru effect first..love the tone!

[@erikekmannmoller3887]

I Would love that

[@sallysigler727]

Bingo! Finally, some clarity on the BB box, and his unique, very distinctive style! You rock, Marty!! 🎸

[@waylongomez1893]

Thanks for making school suck a little bit less :) ✌🏽

[@christopheverding2586]

I tried many, but you´re the best. And the coolest, sympathetic dude. Lots off fun that makes me practice. GreetingsfromMunich, Bavaria

[@sammoore2677]

Awesome video, on jamming like the King of the blues. Thanks Marty for sharing!!

[@borisjohnson4095]

Videos really help me progress mate, cheers!

[@aaronmichaelbrewsterherrer6833]

You gotta love that B.B King sound

[@adityasteven3257]

Thanks so much Marty for this lesson helped me a lot!!! 😃

[@timhildebrand5426]

Love the lessons Marty! You've inspired me to learn more songs and delve into the land of music theory. That's a very deep rabbit hole as I've found out! How about a lesson on Winter Solstice by The Tea Party? Awesome piece of 12 string acoustic music!

[@jeremybentham143]

Can you do a amp setup for acoustic guitar. Thanks. Love your how-tos. It's helped me allot.

[@ComputerScienceLessons]

Very, very tasty Marty. You do something at 9:17 that sounds like a tempo change (I don't know if it has a name), which I hear a lot in solos. It sounds great. Perhaps one day you could break it down for us. Love you.

[@paulsimmons5726]

Marty, those licks sounded just right on that ES! Keep rockin'!

[@robharris6874]

Good licks bud, you give good tutorials as you get stuck right into it. Not like some of these other U tubers where they blab on about the laws of physics for 15 mins before anything happens !!!

[@marvinmurray8499]

Love ur blues lessons Marty

[@tactlacker]

Homie, you’re such a potent and charismatic musical resource. Thank you for everything you do.

[@charleswilson2062]

The return of party marty! Sounds great man

[@maclean525]

This is a really good lesson. Thanks Marty!

[@maykarbeaumont7815]

Bb king inspired me to play, marty inspires me to keep going and improving!

[@brickhouse280]

Thanks so much marty really helpful stuff you do love the B.B box vids so much is there to unlock rock on brother

[@trustyaxe]

Excellent video...as always. Thank you, Marty!

[@kevinhine9605]

I like how the rhythm in the intro sounds like rock n roll by led zeppelin

[@boblavin1873]

Hey Marty, Thanks for the great lesson 👍 Are you coming straight out of the boss amp or comming through an effects pedal first.

[@blackcat138]

Thanks! I was looking for THIS!

[@mikemcdandy4899]

Probably the greatest video tutorial of all time! Thank you Marty!❤

[@michaelhenderson1687]

I always learn some thing new everytime.this dude rocks

[@madeinmississippi662]

You are the man! Learn so much from you!

[@lean1862]

Hola muy bueno las notas , saludos desde Argentina buenos aires

[@missmokkori5558]

Amazing lesson, like always ! Could you please upload a lesson for Rock You Like A Hurricane at some point, please ?

[@airbrushmikeartgarage3479]

Thx Marty!!! I saw BB in Idaho along time ago. You got it buddy.

[@oldmannotreally156]

Hey Marty, love the videos man they have helped me a lot, can you maybe do 50 ways to say goodbye?

[@rob1016ny]

It becomes so much easier to follow along when I turn my phone upside down and see if from the players perspective. I wish some would have told me to do this when I first starting watching videos in hopes of learning to play.

[@RC32Smiths01]

BB King is one of the greats in guitar! A great lesson for sure!

[@kingston7583]

Ay Wassup Marty, I was dying if you could do a guitar tutorial of Amoeba Adolescent. Thank you for doing this for us. Keep it up👍

[@miles_tones8970]

Great Lesson Marty! Thanks!

[@Landaftertime]

Great guitar choice 😁

[@tepidtooth8539]

Marty if you do end up doing People are Strange please teach how to play it like Robby with his unique playing style!

[@stephendavis5530]

You can certainly hear that he was a major influence on Clapton's guitar sound. 😀

[@robertflower3067]

Another great lesson Marty,

[@awadsultan5423]

[@stephendavis5530]

Talking of Clapton, it would be great if you could teach the solo to Sunshine Of Your Love by Cream. 😀

[@splashesin8]

[@kevinharnan8378]

[@nangkiewartetrina8214]

This is amazing

[@twizt3dgamer274]

Hey Marty I really love your lessons but I've been looking for a lesson on the song overkill by riot and I can't find any I really want to learn how to do the guitar "solo" if that's what you want to call it. It would be awesome if you could do a lesson on it thanks

[@fraserjs]

I’d like a video on how you get that tone

[@joshuastables6726]

Marty!! you should look into Peach Pit's music, some awesome guitar stuff in there that would probably make good lessons ;)

[@caleballen226]

You should do a 7 &7 lesson by turnpike troubadours

[@barnabywilde374]

my amateur brain says the trans-positioning back & forth from an A lead to Am lead should NOT work, but they sound remarkably good. No wonder my previous attempts to figure out what the hell B.B. was doing was so confusing! Marty, you're a saint for making this undeniably clear!

[@Noah-or6ws]

that’s why i don’t worry about music theory, i do better just playing by heart and soul

[@anthonyangelis1094]

Fine playing Marty 🎸👍👍❤️

[@2noobie896]

I’d just wish I had my new guitar strings to learn ✋😔

[@Jdogg0805]

Hi Marty! Pls Could you do the killer queen solo by queen would be very grateful

[@fdcap9835]

Awesome!

[@kylekawolski5174]

Hey Marty I was wondering if you could do "How to Play D.O.A by Foo Fighters". It's one my favorites and KZbin doesn't have really any good lessons out there currently. Thanks! :)

[@rupertgrisewood538]

Well done and thank you Marty 👍👍

[@donleyreviews1457]

[@stewmcleod7315]

Useful. Thanks.

[@codywharton5050]

U should do a lesson on Dear Mr Fantasy by Traffic

[@EclecticEssentric]

I'm pretty sure he did. I think that I learned it here. Key of D: start with A major (mixolydian), G major (lydian), D major (Ionian), then (edit) back to A major, finishing that count with (end edit) the little note riff of E G A C A C (A minor-ish, C in lieu of C# ), then restart. Then there's the one other bridge/interlude bit. Check for his video.

[@avm9188]

Can u do back in business acdc?

[@PlouplePoupi]

Love it ! Thank u so much🇫🇷👍🏼🍒

[@mysterysnailtrails]

Hells to the yizzy. Thanks Marty!!

[@EclecticEssentric]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Awesome. Unless I heard wrong, you said "high E on the 17th fret", it is the high A note. Just in case anyone else heard that that way. Edit: No more Miss Ell? She was pretty and pretty awesome at teaching. I'm sorry for teasing her for saying 10,000 words in one minute, I hope that awesome lady wasn't offended, it was never my intent.

[@ofirlanger6263]

can you make a video of the solo of stairs to heaven
