Your Awesome. ive recently been injured to the point of disability. hadn't played in abt 5 yrs, but now that this about all i can do my son decided to pick up a guitar and i now teach him and we use your lessons to teach him with and your more advanced things to help me knock off cobwebs. at 43 i hate my situation and find it hard to admit no more football with my son who is only 14 or riding bikes kinda thing either. Hell, i couldn't get in my hunting stand this year or walk our trails so had to give that up to for now at least, but we have bonded over the guitar and its made the last year a bit better sir. thank you sir for offering a free music education of higher caliber & sincerity from you because i cant afford to do what we are getting to do if it wasn't .

Actually this is my favorite Marty instructional video. Shows how to do the scale as a whole scale and then how it works/sounds without dwelling too much on each note.

Me too brosef! Check out the KZread channel "Elevated Jam Tracks". You can practice lead guitar and soloing with the videos there. The composer even shows the scale patterns that go with the rhythm guitar. I mastered the Dorian scales using his tracks. There are tons of different backing tracks you can use. I found a 7 minute backing track for the solo section of Stairway to Heaven. The backing tracks can be your band for when you practice.

Everything repeats just like on a piano. Once you learn the extensions you can unlock the neck in minor pentatonic. Or major pentatonic scales. In any key to with the exact same concept. Been using that to get by on for a while now and everyone has said my playing has improved in leaps and bounds. I dig Marty's videos he is always on the ball. Then it's a case of learning diatonic scales. Using the same concept. Then on to frigian scales ect until you got the whole of the scales unlocked. Finding the extensions for most of the scales and your on to a winning formula. That's why I like these videos. They work for unlocking the neck. If you can do it in a minor key you can do it in a major key then your well on your way.

Its hard too put too words what it feels like when you uncover something and find and figure something new on the guitar like this.
I’ve been “self taught” for years and years but really I’ve just been grabbing pieces of wisdom from you and experimenting with it my own way. I start gigging next week so I have to say thank you my teacher, you’ve served me well Marty. Just bought your lead and CAGED courses online.
Probably noone on KZread I trust more than Marty..I feel like I could call him if my car is stranded and he'll come help me out lol

Marty, I've been playing guitar for 55 years and 45 of that has been performing 4x/week in church music. This drill is PRICELESS in 2 ways: adding some life to the sameness of the genre AND giving me a means for getting myself sharper! Thank you & God bless you.
Really love it when u slip that jimi hendrix’s all along the watchtower riff around 11:20, took me by surprise! This is really an eye-opener and a new insight to my guitar study, thanks marty.

Hi! These simple excerises are really good for reasons that Marty is not telling: 1) They are pretty safe patterns for effective little solos for beginners and intermediates. 2) They teach you to think horizontally along the neck which is good because most beginners still think in vertical chunks (Which is not bad, but limits expression) 3) I have found that focusiing in index and ring finger corrects many fingering wromg tendencies. That's what I have found as an intermediate player about these. You're a very good teacher my friend!!!
Dude. I wish I would have learned this 20 years ago. Thank you so much. I’m so excited to have learned this. I’m going to practice the hell out of it and it will launch me into a higher plane.

I have been practicing scales for so long and haven’t really known what to do with them. I feel like my eyes have been opened after watching this. Thank you 🙏🏼
Got to give this man some credit, ive watched a bunch of his videos dating back to 2009, have learnt allot from this man. Its nice to get free good lessons.
You don't just provide some great lessons, but it's entertaining to see that you are really growing as a guitarist.
Marty is such a great teacher! I also like Paul Davids. These two guys combined have taught this 61 year old lots😄
Man, this was super refreshing to hear. I've been checking out a tonne of guitar tutorial vids the last few days and most of them have either confused the hell out of me or just annoyed me. This was SUPER clear, quick, to the point, and I'm ABSOLUTELY going to use these tips. Thanks!
As I am beginner, I do not know if it a big stuff or not, but out of numerous tutorial there is, I really for the first time understand how to use scale to play lead. This one you get to know to learn and play lead. This is not just technique tutorial, it is the application of the technique. Thanks a lot from the bottom of my heart. You do really give good stuff and keep making a difference.
Hey Marty, Great lessons. I like your simple and laid back attitude. Just the right amount of humor and not going all over the place. Thanks to your videos, I'm slowly but surely taking in all that precious information (videos). It doesn't come easy! Keep up the great work. Cheers, Eric
This was awesome. I’ve seen a bit of each concept but the way you grouped them and outlined their use in no time was great.
This lesson really tied all the parts together and opened my eyes. I am sure gonna practice like this from now on! Thanks Marty!
Thanks "4" those techniques. Learning how to set up & adjust my guitar is time saving & money saving, perhaps a video on the basics for those who need it would be good.

I've been playing for years on and off... And this lesson right here just opened so many doors to me I feel like a beginner again... Thank you so much Marty 💯
Marty, that was one of the best lessons I've seen on connecting the different pentatonic positions! My brain just had one of those "Ohhh now I see" moments.....the extensions helped me a lot! Thanks brother!
I've been playing for 20 years and this really showed me something that I can sit around and work on. Simply put and very helpful... Thanks for posting.
Marty I’ve been playing guitar for 3 years now, and I’ve watched your videos for almost just as long. Your videos helped me a lot when I got started and still do. Thanks a lot.
With this lesson I finally find myself flying around the fretboard when I solo, not just locked in the minor pentatonic boxes. Thank you Marty!
I had all the pieces to the puzzle and you just helped me expertly put them into place. Thank you very much for taking the time to show me You helped me a lot. Cheers!
Marty, I’ve tried two of yours courses so far. Thank you I’m loving them and learning a lot.
You are my no.1 teacher on KZread. Thanks for the awesome lessons Marty
Thanks for this Marty. Watching something like this and then practising religiously will no doubt speed up my solos while still keeping them moderately simple. It's just what I need!
This is one of your best videos Marty. You're pretty much my only teacher for blues. I started late in life learning scales but, what I lack in experience, I plan to make up for in practice now. Thanks so much!
i've learned open chords, fast changes, bar chords, power chords, alternate picking and minor pentatonic scale and was thinking what to do next beside training those further, now i watched this vid and im like DAMN i HAVE TO learn those, like desperately, i feel this is the best thing. Thank you Marty
Thank you Marty! The blend of skill and personality you have makes it engaging and fun to keep pushing through obstacles and continue learning.
I love this man, and his lessons. I hope he knows how much he helps us rookie players explore and grow.
Thank you so much Marty for helping me for so long on my journey to learn music. I am very humbled that I can play So much of the music I love. If I can do it, anyone can! Just don't stay down when it gets tough! You just have to wait, It will come...
Gotta be one of the best, if not THE best, lesson you've ever done Marty, actually pretty simple once you break it down but sounds great... thanks man, you rock!!
This is perfect. I have been getting a little overwhelmed and this gives me a place to go back to.
Not sure what is cooler: Marty playing this blues or the fact that he just taught me how. Amazing.
Thank you marty!! This lesson is a game changer for me.... it was one of the most intuitive , not to mention, interesting lessons for getting around the fretboard I have ever seen.. Keep up the good work!
I'm an old guitar player Marty, 70 next year, and I've been watching your videos for a few years now. It's funny how a little thing can open up a big door, even at my stage in the game, btw, it's good to know that when you play the guitar, you never stop learning. Anyway, sliding up with the ring finger is a beauty, it's opened up a door for me, up till today I've just been moving my hand. I never knew about it, and I've played all kinds of music. So thank you, that'll keep me busy for a while. I subscribed today. Best wishes and kind regards, and a Happy New Year from Scotland.
I've been playing the rhythm guitar for all my life because I never dared to solo (and I had no knowledge). Now, in my late twenties, you literally opened up a (quite easy, as it seems!) world for me. THANK. YOU.

Really appreciate this, particular the sliding up and down part. It’s really helping tie things together for me. Peace
I have been trying to learn the pentatonic shapes for years now, but not with much success. Just so happy you broke those boxes down this way and made it way simpler. Thanks very much for all the lessons Marty. Cheers.
Hi thank you this lesson has really give me a huge jump in understanding scales and extending them as I'm really struggling to understand, is they other specific videos you have that covers this category please thank you once again.
hey marty newbie here ..my name is jim...ive been playing for a long time of seven days now..just wanted to say thanks for ur vids...i have a long way to go but ur vids are so very helpful,,,thank you jim
Awesome lesson using the whole neck. Glad I stumbled upon it. Exactly what I’ve been trying to work on.
This just absolutely blew my mind. Thank you. I finally understand a concept that I've long searched for.
The intro track sounded like Born Under A Bad Sign. Marty, you are the man.
I watch Marty for help learning the best way to explain guitar. I’ve played for ever but it’s hard to explain in an easy way to understand. I figure maybe a few hundred more videos of Marty and I’ll have a better chance relaying my thoughts where they can be understood better and hopefully actually help people? It’s harder than people think to instruct no matter how well you play!
From playing open chords to learning all the modes you were there thanks Marty for being with us.
I'm new to the soloing, I started off doing these scales...lotta fun and opened up the fretboard for me...great lesson!
I've been watching and learning since 2013 man, Marty brother you have helped me through so many dark days. Thank you brother

Please explain Marty I'm an idiot and can't tell what your doing no matter how I slow it down or watch and I'm EAGER to play like that lol. Love the vids
These are great to know, but they can also become so familiar that we revert to them too often. Exploring different scales, and learning the 7 modes and seeing how they all connect is really important too! Harmonic minor, and diminished scales are a great way to spice up your playing.

Hey Marty, thank you so much for your teaching us struggling "want-a-be's". Right on lessons, great attitude, one of the best teaching set of lessons on the Web. How about letting us watch you play with your band jamming at a real show? That would be great fun to watch and very inspiring. Thanks, again
I've been working on learning solo'ing for the last two months everday after 5 years of learning rhythm guitar from you and others. And I was able to follow the whole lesson though i had to pause it many times. And can now play in the key of C all over the neck man what a lesson. I'm going to have to review this many times to get it deep into my long term memory. Thanks for the skill Marty!
Thank you again for the helpful tip. I was trying to learn all the scales and modes at the same time and was in fact overwhelmed as you suggested. I'm just going to focus on this for now and once I have this burned into my muscle memory I will explore the other scales. Very helpful!
great vid, really like the walk with ring finger, great tool for reps and building over the position gaps
Thank you very much for these
Marty. You are the BEST, sir. I do not ever comment on KZread, but I’ve been watching your videos for several years, and you are the best instructor on KZread. Beyond, I would wager. You’re very humble, and ALWAYS give applicable technical, and tricks. Thank you so much man, for being you! Keep on rockin’!

I find all your lessons so helpful thanks very much man. Much love!!!!
Hilarious getting the ‘dude! stop trying to learn guitar solos using scales’ ad while watching this haha Great lesson, excited for these drills to improve my playing!
Apart from good timing and perfect pitch - Vibrato, gate time (when to stop a note - is as important as when to start a note), velocity on and on - these small little things that make up a good sounding guitarist. that many guitarists miss out on their playings and make them sound just bad without knowing why. And a lot of guitarists don't even know that they sound bad because they don't record and listen to themselves as often as they should be and compare with pro guitarist so they don't even recognise what's good and bad.
Great video!
Very cool Marty. I had a cyst on my brain stem probably since birth. Had it removed ten years ago, re-picked up my guitar and went from still a beginner to understanding and playing beyond my wildest dreams. You were a big part of that. Thanks so much!
I’ve been playing for almost ten years but I swear I learn something new every time is watch one of his lessons.
Those clothes with the blonde telecaster works so well, I've never thought of matching clothing with the guitar until now. Thank you for looking slick Marty and teaching these lessons!

Pentatonic means five any key has basically seven notes and then your eight which is an octave For c major you have the notes c d e f g a b c C major pentatonic is five notes namely c d e g a That's root second third fifth and sixth It's the scale used a lot in rock blues and even trad and many other musical types. It's scale that fits a lot of chord progressions though not all If you want to be a great guitarist always follow the chords when soloing and keep watching Marty as he is great to watch
